Fred's Story

Fred, a lovable Bassgle, was famous for his surprisingly gentle invasions of people's laps, despite his nearly 60-pound size, or his immediate flops to the ground demanding belly rubs from anyone he met. He was a constant presence, whether accompanying his person to work or staying by their side through countless work-from-home days, a bond cherished beyond words. Now, Fred rests on the forever side of the Rainbow Bridge, reunited with his brothers Porky, Joshua, Bagel, Bobs, and "Ma," free from pain and having fulfilled his beautiful purpose.

— Remembered by Deb

Lyrics

Remember Fred, our big Bassgle boy,

A sixty-pound bundle of pure joy.

He'd climb onto laps, without a care,

A giant lap dog, beyond compare.

Or flop on the ground for a belly rub sweet,

No one could ever deny that treat.

Oh, Fred, our sweet Fred, with a heart so wide,

Twelve years, almost thirteen, right by my side.

You filled every moment with laughter and grace,

Leaving a smile on every face.

We spent every day, just me and you,

From office visits to working from home, it's true.

My constant companion, through thick and through thin,

Our favorite moments would always begin.

Every morning, every afternoon bright,

Basking together in your joyful light.

Oh, Fred, our sweet Fred, with a heart so wide,

Twelve years, almost thirteen, right by my side.

You filled every moment with laughter and grace,

Leaving a smile on every face.

You did all the things you were meant to do,

And were loved beyond words, faithful and true.

I'll miss you always, my dear, it's true,

And thank you for sending our Olive new.

Oh, Fred, our sweet Fred, with a heart so wide,

Twelve years, almost thirteen, right by my side.

You filled every moment with laughter and grace,

Leaving a smile on every face.

Now with Porky, Joshua, Bagel, and Bobs,

And my Ma, beyond any earthly sobs.

Across the Rainbow Bridge, free and bright,

Running in pure, joyful light.
