Angel, Maggie, Jasper and Elliot

In February of 1996, Ilene, Bob and I went to Dallas to work at Proko Industries.  This picture  shows me in the office in Dallas.  Oh yes, I went to work every day.  Scott Hewitt wondered how I would look as Tom Sawyer. While we were in Dallas, Bob discovered that I was blind in one eye.  The special doggy eye doctor said that I had a detached retina in my left eye, apparently from birth.  He could also see cataracts forming in my eyes. 

 
In June of 1996, we moved the office of Proko to Cambridge City, Indiana.  We had lots of new people there, although the office wasn't as big.  It made my job a lot easier with less territory to guard. Here I am protecting Scott from the UPS truck.

 

While we were moving, we stayed at the Heim Motel. It had three beds in the room.  I jumped from bed to bed and then looked out the window at the trucks going by.

 
We always have parties on my birthday. In this picture, we had just moved into our apartment in Cambridge City.

 
On October 16, 1996, Christopher Robert Cribbs was born to Dorothy and Robert. I shared my Squeaky with him.

 
I always could make Christopher laugh. He liked to play with me.  We would play tug  with the Squeaky and sometimes we played chase

Chris was my first nephew and everybody called me Uncle Angel.  I am Dorothy's only brother.

 
I usually do something special for Halloween.  One year I was a Dalmatian (above) and another year I was Superdog ( right).
