For my Beloved Friend & Awesome Companion he was a Dachshund by the name of Oskar Meier John Thomas Boots Lapp-King, wow what a long name which is possibly longer than Oskar himself!! He has been a tremendous blessing to me and my family!! He was by my side from the day he came into our life until his departing, there is not enough paper to describe what he meant to me as a companion. Whether I was sweeping (walking in my dirt), or mopping (walking on my wet floors), to standing at my feet cooking supper (really wanting some), to sleeping by my side at night (buried under the covers), he was just plain faithful, totally loving, trusting, and dependant on me for his care!! He will truly be missed and has left that firmly planted paw print upon our heart forever. Rest in peace my beloved companion and know that you were and are truly loved by me and your family!!
