Rufus was born in Savannah, GA and came to us when he was just weened from his mother. When he was around 4 months old he developed a blockage in his intestine and needed emergency surgery to remove a section. He came through it with ease. As I was in the Army at the time, Rufus came with us everywhere I was stationed including Illinois, North Carolina, Germany, back to Savannah, and finally here to Arizona. He and I walked many miles in all those places, had countless conversations. It’s these times that I will miss the most.
