    This is a pic of my little girl who passed away two months after my Mom a few years ago. She was truly the light of my life for 15 years and I must admit they were the best years of my life, Cockers will always be by our sides regardless of what we go through. I truly believed she held on until my Mom passed because she knew she had to be a source of strength for me. I have her ashes, but more important I will always have her in my heart.
