Sometimes it felt like you'd outlive us all. You were always calm yet present and alert, enjoying your favorite peanut snacks and digging the stuffing out of innocent pillows. You left as gracefully as you lived. Calm, aware. You kept your (and the universe's) secrets untold. But it was the uneaten peanuts that told us loudly that you're ready to move on. Rest in peace little furry one, thanks for blessing us with your long quiet presence and love. We'll always remember you Steve. ~2008-2022
