It is with great pain and sorrow that we have to announce that our beloved Kenwood's Liam Erin passed away on January 28, 2009.

We have no idea what happened: a few days before, he looked a bit sluggish, so we took him to our vet who did all the necessary tests, exams and X-Rays, but everything was fine. She prescribed some pain killer to make him comfortable. A few days after, he woke up in the morning not looking good at all. We took him back to the vet straight away. Again, tests and all, nothing showed. We were sent home but they kept him gave him oxygen and fluid with a drip.

A few hours later, the vet called us and asked that we'll take him to an internal medicine specialist. At our arrival, we were told that he probably would not make it there, and asked if we wanted him to be euthanized. As we were talking about it, there was a great shuffle, nurses and vet running around.... and a few minutes later, we were told that he had passed away.

We spent a lot of time cuddling his beautiful warm body.

Our friend Grace, who has one Liam's son (Aidan) took him to her hobby farm just outside Charleston, SC, and buried him there. She is going to put a beautiful Irish Rose bush over his tomb.

We miss him, as he was the best dog anyone could wish for.

We are all sad and hurt by his premature death.

We will always remember and love him as he is still a part of us.
