What a tremendous loss!! Heavens gain for sure. CJ and I both had/have service dogs, we were good friends for close to 20 years. CJ had to have been the most laid back guy I had ever known. A real gentleman and very loyal. He loved his son, Jason , his daughter , Ashley , he was thrilled to pieces when his grandson, Rollin came along, and , he loved their mother , Kathy , very much. I am pleased he is reunited with Mama Dog , and his loved ones. Selfishly, I wish he were still on earth. After Mama Dog died I told CJ about my Dr., Dr Lutz and his wife who have a non profit ; Continuing the Mission , they train and place service dogs with veterans but he mourned Mama Dog until they got together again. CJ gave great advice, there wasn't much much he couldn't talk about and he had an uncanny ability to listen and was a very soothing gentleman. I will miss him and our friendship.
My prayers are for his family and friends. Those who love him. For peace and understanding during this extremely difficult time.
