(If you search &#8220;Coco&#8221; on this blog you&#8217;ll see lots of photos &#8211; including one of my all-time faves below.)  I also have tons of happy, pre-kids memories of Coco; the first time I met him was the summer before Q and I got married, when I flew home for my wedding shower.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">After losing our parents, most other sad events\/losses will pale in comparison. But anyone who has had a dog (especially one that lived as long as Coco did) knows what an integral part of the family they are and can imagine how hard this loss is for Sandy. I know she&#8217;s comforted, though, by the thought of him being with our parents; I like to think of him happily bouncing around on our dad&#8217;s freshly cut grass up there.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">-M<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image is-resized\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/www.zoe.browdy.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/06\/Zoe-and-Coco-713x1024.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-27232\" width=\"357\" height=\"512\" srcset=\"http:\/\/www.zoe.browdy.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/06\/Zoe-and-Coco-713x1024.jpg 713w, http:\/\/www.zoe.browdy.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/06\/Zoe-and-Coco-209x300.jpg 209w, http:\/\/www.zoe.browdy.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/06\/Zoe-and-Coco-768x1104.jpg 768w, http:\/\/www.zoe.browdy.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/06\/Zoe-and-Coco.jpg 1275w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 357px) 100vw, 357px\" \/><\/figure>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Something sad recently happened in the family: Coco, Sandy&#8217;s dog, died.
