Within my heart, there resides a memory of the most wonderful 5 years of my life and a pledge made on May 8th, 2002 through such pain and grief I thought that I would surely die. Mr Gatsby went to heaven on that day and my life changed dramatically. There are 2 more little Miniature schnauzers in my life now ---one is so much like Gatsby, but different, that I smile inside. The other, the boy who carries his name, is like him only in brief glimpses and probably related only by gender. None of these have that skip that made me laugh every single time I walked my boy... but Mr Gatsby is a silent member of this home and there seems to be an understanding from the 2 about the Black Urn that has a place of honor in this home.
We miss you Mr Gatsby --- although you never knew Duncan, Bravo's THE GREAT Gatsby, and your namesake, and Lexi, your twin, they know you and have heard countless stories about you and know that you are a part of this home .... Momma loves you, son ---will always love you!
Your Momma
