Godspeed, he looked like a guy who loved life. Like my old man he looks like a hard man, with a sweet spot.
On a separate note: I make some nice lathe-turned cremation urns in the shape of a 12 gauge shell. I carry a pinch of ashes from every dog I have had over the last 37 years, since my first Springer named Isaac changed my life forever. If anyone needs one, I am happy to oblige, no charge, of course.
