More: Never has a person had a friend like Marley. He understood everything we said and did. He was like a person. Definitely a family member. He died of cancer 10 days after this picture was taken. Still smiling and loving us with everything he had. He died peacefully and in my arms. We miss how he made us laugh every day and the love that was so unconditional. There will never be another doggy like Marley.
