We are very sad to report the passing of a boxer that touched our hearts.

It doesn't matter how old these dear dogs are or how long they have been with you, you still miss them when they are gone.

In memory of Roxie....

With us just a short time.

In our hearts forever.

You filled a void-----where many voices weren't heard-----Brought me peace and love-like a beautiful dove-----I could see your love when you looked at me-----"Tails a Waggin" you were happy as can be-----I'll never forget you 'nor will you forget me-----Rest in peace my girl, and watch over Daddy.   

 This next one was written in a Thank You card and left with her later that day. it was written by my brother-in-law Al.    

 Dear Roxie......When you get to doggy heaven hold your head up high------knowing that you were loved  by a whole lot of people-------most of all your Daddy and Uncle Al-----Have a nice trip---------we miss you already ---and "thank you" for coming into your Daddy's life..............Love Uncle Al                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                     "ROXIE " As much as I knew what I had in you----After you were gone I realized that there was more I never knew----I made you really happy, I knew that much----But oh how I wish I could've given you, just one more touch----Though I gave and did oh so much for you-----What you gave me back was more than you ever knew----Im sorry I didn't have more time with you-----But what you taught me in that time, another Boxer will one day thank you----So when I'm sad and down and missing you-----I'll keep my "chin" up, the way I taught you----For among the love, friendship and memories I've got from you----Giving me your "chin" , was the favorite thing I taught and got from you.  

That's it Dawn................A little background on the chin thing......Early on I was sitting at the kitchen table when my little girl quietly came up to me and laid her chin across my leg and looked up at me with the eyes they have.....well I melted......Eventually I taught her to do that more.......when I was laying down, laying back, sleeping, whatever.......If she was next to me in any way I would say "chin" and she laid it across or wherever depending on what position I was in. I loved that and never realized how much love one could feel with something as "speciale" as that. Boxers are an amazing breed and I will ONLY have another if and when someday. Thanks for all you've done for me.........for bringing "Roxie" into my life at a time when she was OH SO NEEDED, and please share these sentiments and stories on her memorial site so that others may cherish what they are oh so lucky to still have.....their friend till the end...............the "Boxer"

                  Each Boxer leaves paw prints on your heart.  Roxie  will be missed.
