Another sad day for the Callea family

Today we lost my brother's family Dal, Sophia. She was 14+ years old. She had several strokes over the past 2 years or so, but with very indulgent care she did very well. Pam trained Sophia for her C.D. and started on open, but she had problems with jumping so that was not to be. Most likely that was just fine with Sophia!

Sophia was wonderful with my puppies over the years. She was a great Auntie! Even to Mocha's puppies. She and Mocha hated each other, plain and simple. They loved to mark where the other one could not cover it! It was quite a game for them over the years.

Sophia was a creature of comfort. She almost always had to have her special quilt my Mom made for her and she always had her head on a pillow. She loved her bed by the wood stove too. In her last few years she "trained" Tom & Pam to cook for her. She loved trout, grandma cookies, beef stew and every now and then dog food... but not so much!

As they all are... Sophia was such a special girl.
