Aunt Kate, Craig, Randy, Kim and Dwight were amongst his favorite Ferndalians. He loved sticks, any treat, eating everything he should not, squirrel watching/hunting with Fiona, watching mom cook in the kitchen, his big red ball, his swimming pool, outings where he can be social and get attention, most of all his girl Fiona.

They lived and laughed and loved and left.
