Satchel

This is Satchel, the "chick magnet" Bill had when we met. Hard to believe this cute face almost kept me from getting to know Bill, isn't it? Only someone who is scared of dogs could understand. Now that I know Bill, he could have a pit bull and I'd still be here. OK - maybe not a pit bull. Maybe a golden lab?

Satchel was a very special dog. We called her "Nurse Satchel" because she had a knack for taking care of people when they needed extra love - first Bill's wife Joyce when she was dying of breast cancer then his mom - keeping her company and enabling her to stay in her own home an extra year. Satchel was a loyal companion and we miss her.
