Let Me Tell You ‘Bout My Best Friend

 

I am Mr. Pip

Ziggaro Pip

I’m Jessicah's best friend. I called her Momma or Mommy, depending on the moment. She can be very, very difficult, but I love her anyway. We're soulmates and will always be together.

In 2017, as October 27th turned to the 28th, Ziggaro died. Home in bed, together with Momma & Daddy by his side, a quiet and gentle close to 15 wonderful years.

We will never truly be apart, the way we’re together is just different now.

I am Mr. Pip

Renwick Pip

I’m Jessicah's best friend. I call her Momma or Mommy, depending on the moment. She can be very, very difficult, but I love her anyway. We're soulmates and will always be together.

In 2018, Momma & Daddy flew to SC to pick up Renn. He was so little but traveled without fuss, ignoring pushy strangers and snoozing through weather delays.

“Welcome Home” I cried when we finally arrived. “I never left Momma” he replied.

 

I am Jessicah, one of the humans whom Mr. Pip is steward of.

I am Ziggaro's best friend. He was so easy going. Making me happy made him happy. And making him happy made me happy. I have never known a soul as pure and kind as his. A gentle and quietly wise teacher with patience beyond measure, the lessons he taught continue to make me better.

We're soulmates.

I am Renwick's best friend. He is intuitive and always ready for action. He has the drive of a working dog and I think if I allowed it, he would never sleep. I am positive that his tenacity for everything pulled me out of the hole I fell into after Ziggaro died. He pushes me to be better, even when I don’t want to.

We're soulmates.
