Tippet

Tippet gave us her love and devotion for 12 happy years. She “raised” our boys and then, after a few days of disgruntlement, accepted our chocolate lab Kona into our family and taught him how to be a good boy. She loved hikes in the woods, playing with the water hose, and relaxing in the sunshine listening to birds. Christmas was her favorite holiday, because she learned that sometimes there are treats wrapped under the tree (including a jar of anchovies!). Despite her ferocious appearance, she shared her love with everyone. She was our baby, and while we miss her terribly, we feel blessed that she was part of our family.
