Because Maverick was dying, Joey and Allison Maxwell resolved to make the most of their last time with him…
A wagon was Joey’s best option for transporting Maverick about town, where he could visit all of his favorite spots, have a few tasty burgers, and receive plenty of attention from his neighbors.
Maverick started to heal after his great excursion and encouraged a lot of people…
As Joey said, “hundreds and thousands of individuals have informed us… that reading Maverick’s good morning and good night postings gave them the fortitude to get through their own challenges.”
He went away quietly at home a little more than three months after he touched the hearts of many readers.
Maxwell and Maverick had supper at their house just after midnight on Saturday night. They fed him a bit more since he was still hungry.
Maverick soon fell asleep with his head resting on his pillow.
This “meant everything to us,” Joey added, “to have one final supper with dad.”
The last three months have been a wonderful gift for the Maxwells.
In Joey’s words, “We assumed the day we got the wagon was it.” “The influence he has made in the past three and a half months is unfathomable.”
