Chuck and Remy
John Peterson J a n u a r y 2 , 2 0 2 0 · Shared with Your friends My brother, Charles (Chuck,Pete) died 11 years ago, Jan 3. The day after his birthday. It does not seem possible. 2Jan1952-3Jan2009 Remy, my dog, now has been with me for 5 years. He and I are both over 70 (human years) and we have mellowed and bonded. Remy follows me everywhere, burrows into my coat when he gets cold.....and as Linda says....never takes his eyes off me. I honestly think he would die protecting me. This all brings me to this conclusion....Chuck’s spirit lives in a Remy. As kids, I was older, calmer...Chuck, like Remy had an excess amount of energy and devotion. Chuck used to just shiver in anticipation (as a 3-5 year old) in anticipation of Christmas, birthdays or anything special to him. I remember him standing at attention, arms at his side, waiting for Mom to praise or reward him. Remy does the same thing.....and I think of Chuck every time. ...
