Goodbye to Grand dad

We have not been around as much as usual over the next few days as we are out of town in Saratoga Spings staying with family.  Unfortunately, our grand dad (mom's father) got very sick suddenly and passed away.  He was a nice man and enjoyed taking pictures of us and giving us treats.   It was grand dad who suggested mom and dad get a pug since he had one when he was little, (he never had dogs as an adult).   One of Grand Dad's absolute favorite things was nine-ball which is why this picture of Tubby is appropriate.

  4. Sorry for your loss. We'll keep you guys in our thoughts.

    Tubby's tribute is fantastic. It sounds like your Grandfather would have gotten a kick out of a pug in a pool-themed jacket.
