Dylan Randolph Hawk

March 11, 2005 - May 1, 2014

I like to think that in this picture Dylan is telling Kevin that he is ready to stop fighting. 

Today was his last day.  

Those that know us & knew Dylan know how much a part of our family he was and how great of a dog he was.  I thought he might live forever. He was so strong & tough at the end I think maybe he thought the same.

There will be a strange quietness around the house that I'm not sure we're ready for :/

  4. Kevin and Erin,,,We are so sad that Dylan won't be wagging his stub, when bounds through our front door anymore, but we have super wonderful memories to cherish,,,those will never be taken from us. It was an honor to foster him while you were in England,,along with Joanne of course. I'm sure her heart is heavy today also. The one memory that I will always have is that Dylan never met a stranger, and I don't remember anyone meeting him that didn't love him! He was that kind of dog! He will eternally rest easy now

  5. Just think - he had one heck of a great camping trip and sendoff, which no doubt made him as happy as can be and thankful to be with his family. Still thinking of all of you! xoxoxo
