Guage was a beacon of joy, injecting humour and love into the lives of everyone he encountered. His sweet and loving nature made him a cherished member of our community. He was strong, both in spirit and determination, a trait that helped him overcome numerous life challenges, including a fierce battle with mange and cancer.

His proudest moments were simple yet significant. The celebration of his thirteenth birthday was a landmark event, not just for him, but for all those who loved him.
