I had known Shorty since I was a child. I saw him hard at work at the waffle house back in those days. It was our family tradition to go there every Sunday. My dad liked to chat with him and joke around. More recently he had become a regular at the pet store I work at. He was kind and very appreciative of the help we gave him whenever he came in. He was in just a few days before he passed. He told me all about his recent surgery and I held open the door for him as he was leaving. I told him I’ll see you next time and he squeezed my hand. He told me he would be back June third for more treats for his dog. A week after that another customer came in and told us the news. We were heart broken to hear that he had passed. May he be at peace and enjoying his afterlife. Bless you Shorty!
