Mark has been our neighbor for over 10 years. We first met after we moved in and we found out by notice that one of our dogs liked to join in with the other dogs in the neighborhood to bark at everything that happened in the neigborhood. Dogs just doing their jobs.

We didn't know he was a Fireman who had different shifts. Having to do work those shifts ourselves, we understood and told him we would make sure our dogs didn't bark. He felt bad and realized we were good neighbors and didn't mean any bad feelings and said our 2 animals were fine. They have both passed on as well as Mark has. Right now he is probably enjoying life with both of them as well as our cat who liked to watch both yards. Maybe they are chasing the flying dart papers he liked to shoot in the backyard. Over the past couple of years, we got to know him. He was always out there helping out with the snow so our Postman Bob could make it all the way up the hill not to mention the garbage guys.Even when he had the cancer, he came out to help out. I am sorry your life was cut short. Your Neighbors The Bensons
