Gabbi Garcia penned a heartfelt message for Sunshine, her pet dog of over a decade, as she mourns her passing yesterday, Nov. 18.
“Today is a sad day for the family. Our Dearest Sunshine is now in Doggy heaven. I don’t even know where to begin.. Sunshine is not just a dog, she’s family. She has been with us for 13, almost 14 years in our lives,” the actress said on Instagram on the same day.
“She sleeps in our rooms, mostly our [parents’] room, joins us in all our meals, and is part of our traditional family photos. She really is the ‘Sunshine’ of this family,” Garcia added.
Garcia’s emotional post aptly came with several photos of Sunshine and her family bonding through the years.
“Shine, thank you for genuinely loving us. You showed me what true loyalty means. You made us all happy and at the same time, comforted us during the sad times. I’ll miss our goodnight kisses and morning cuddles. Thank you my baby girl for everything,” she stressed.
“It was a good and happy 13 years, my love. Run free in paradise. [You] will always be in our minds and in our hearts. We love you forever and ever,” Garcia added. /ra
