Obituary of a Tramp



Here lies the broken remains of a faithful servant lovingly called The Tramp.

The Tramps life was not a life of ease. Some might say Tramp was abused. She was jumped on, sat on, eaten on, ran, and slept on. But, no matter how hard she was pounced on she pushed back twice as hard sending her assailant rocketing toward the sky.

Tramp was subjected to very extreme weather conditions. She sat out in the snow, rain, wind, and sleet. Occasionally, during the summer, she was given the relief of a sprinkler to keep her cool.

It sounds like a horrible life, but the truth is Tramp loved her family. She loved the giggles and squeals, the tricks and games. Tramp loved every minute she got to play with the kids and watch them grow. She joined the family when Savannah was just 2. 9 years of devotion to a family that loved her very much.

But in the end her high impact life was just too much to endure.

On April 5, 2010 while surrounded by family and friends her frame gave in. Our beloved Tramp is gone.

Goodbye, our friend. Thank you for the memories. We love you.

  1. It was a true honor being with The Tramp during her final hours. She was a good friend indeed, and even my own children have been jumping on and enjoying her company for the past 8 years. Rest in peace dear Tramp.

    Have we been friends for that long? ♥

    I enjoyed all of your pictures.
