Millie. (2007-2022) Millie passed away on October 15, 2022 at nearly
15 years of age. She was the light of our life. A compassionate,
intelligent and lively spirit. We had Millie in our life since she was 12
weeks old.

She loved her daily walks to Ocean Beach, every day, rain or shine,
where she would greet her friends Cubby, Leo, little Lucky and others.
She always looked forward to our special Sunday adventures to various
SF parks with our friend, Rebecca, where she enjoyed playing with
squirrels, and meeting bison, horses, ducks, geese and turtles. And of
course getting her “walking treats”. She was an adventurer to the end,
including a 2000-mile cross-country road trip to meet family and friends
along the way.

Millie was a truly devoted comfort dog. During my partner’s yearlong
battle with terminal health conditions, she stayed by his side, keeping up
his spirits and provided me with comfort after that loss
Millie enjoyed a long healthy life until her last 6 months when she
succumbed to mammary carcinoma. She was a trooper through her two
surgeries. She died peacefully at home with her “Daddy” and surrounded
by her “lovies” and toys.

A special thank you to Dr. Gina and Lori for your care and compassion
for both of us at a difficult time. You helped Millie pass peacefully and
comfortably in her home that left me with positive memories of our last
moments together. Thanks also to Joe McC. for capturing this photo of
Millie in her prime on her Ocean Beach walk.
​
Millie, thank you for being “the best dog ever” and for your
unconditional love and devotion. You made us better humans. Your love
will be in my heart forever. Goodbye “Queen of the Sunset” and of our
hearts.
