Over the course of the past two years, I've lost a lot of friends... Including my five amazing German Shepherd Dogs, my mom, and now one of my best friends, Steph Bennet. Steph was there for me when I lost my five babies. She was there for me for me as I watched my mother's life being slowly leeched away. She was there for me two weeks ago when my mom lost her heroic battle against pancreatic cancer and left this life for the next. Steph was always there for me in the good times as well as the bad. I'll miss her dearly. Tonight I take a vow to... Cherish my Dogs. Cherish my Family. Cherish my Friends. And most of all, cherish Life. God speed my friend, Steph Bennet.
