My Friend Cooper

Sometimes life can be mean and cruel.  We do things, without any thought of feelings and how we are affecting others.  We live life not realizing what is important.   But my friend Copper wasn't this way.  He always wanted to be by my side.  It didn't matter what I did to him, he always returned with his tail wagging, and head ready to lean on me.  Cooper what I will take from your life is the concept of unconditional love.  All you wanted was to be loved and love me.  You will never be forgotten. 

"For God so loved the World, that he gave his only son... who will believe in me will not perish, but will have everlasting life."

"Life is like a roller coaster, sometimes you're up, others you're down.  But remember to hang on and enjoy the ride."

Lord help me be as you'll have me be.  Lord help me see as you'll have me see.  Sometimes I'm weighed down with difficulties, I lose my perception of thee.  You hold the future to all I can be.

Cooper best friend of mine, he loved to run, swim and find.
In my truck, he was good luck. Cooper best friend of mine.

Best friends are hard to find, you where one of a kind.
Picked from the rut, not a mut. A lab on the dark chocolate side.



We don't understand what love can bring, until you come into my arms.
Life is complete, as you sleep in that king bed of mine.

I told you never drink out of the beer stein.
Life is a joy, when you fetch that toy

Elbow surgery couldn't stop the boy, running into the sunset of life.

A call late one night, meant that you stopped the great fight, but your life is not in vain.  As we know understand, what a friend can do to a young man's heart.

Driving down the road one day, she stopped and took at look my way.  Hoping to see her eyes where on me, I realized that you were the key.
