Today, I had to say goodbye to my trusted friend, Coco. His health had greatly deteriorated in the past 6 weeks. He had numerous health issues, one which proved fatal this morning.
Coco was a regular with me everyday in this crazy business for 13+ years.. He probably saved a few people beat downs over the years. He would laze around the showroom or go on template/installs everyday. He never was late for work, always happy to be along. He met many SFA members at our 2 workshops, usually while working the crowd for scraps. he was quite the salesman.
It will be hard to look in the co-pilot seat and not see his face.
To say he will be missed is a huge understatement.
Rest in Peace, buddy.

So sorry to hear Dan. Coco will be missed by many. You could tell he never met a stranger.

Re: Sad day in Morris
something how tears come quickly when thinking about the loss of a pet especially a good ole dog , how we can all relate how much pet animals add to our lives , when things are down and had a rough day they always have a tail wag and happy to see you.
my wife and I have had the privileged of good ole dogs we had to put down.
hearing your story of your dog brings back memories of a German Sheppard we once had , He went along every-time the truck went somewhere as well .

Re: Sad day in Morris
Dan, I am so sorry for your loss. My last one died two days after moving into our home here in Atlanta. She knew it was time.
I am sure you will miss Coco. Sounds like a great dog. We tend to treat our pets better than ourselves... that is a great thing.

The Stone Industry has lost a legend. You are so lucky to have spent time with the best Wingman that has ever existed.
Dan, I am so sorry.

So sorry Dan. He sure was a sweet dog. It is one of the hardest things all pet owners go through.

Re: Sad day in Morris
So sorry to hear about this Dan! Coco was a great dog and a better friend I'm sure! It was hard for me when I lost my dog and he wasn't with me all day like Coco was for you. He will truly be missed I'm sure!

Re: Sad day in Morris
I always had that tough guy attitude about my dog, until he passed. I was truly amazed how close I was to my dog and how much it affected me, My condolences to you.
