Nancy, Robin, and Family,
Glenn and I absolutely loved Smoke. He was so full of life and comical. I, as his doctor, had to keep him in line a lot. LOL. I have so many fond memories of him over the years, as does Glenn. One being our tubing trips where he was like Mr. Jeeves and appearing around every corner saying "Robbie, do you have your life vest on?" hahaha. We will miss him! Fly High Smoke and behave up there. Till we meet again!
Love Glenn and Terri

Nancy and family, I am so sorry for your loss! I have, and always will have a special place in my heart for Smoke. Not just for being my neighbor, forever. But for being my friend when I returned from war! He'll never know how much that meant to me!
