Friends believe adopted shelter dog was sent by late hushand to comfort and guard over family.
Tragedy struck the household of Flossmoor resident Vicki Burke in late October when her 40-year-old husband, Steve, died unexpectedly. The sudden passing left her and her two sons, Andrew, 8, and Ryan, 4, with broken hearts and a big, empty space where their husband and father used to be. “After Steve died, I thought about getting a dog. A dog was never an option when Steve was here—he was horribly allergic. I looked at the listings (online) and nothing really called to me." That’s largely because all of Burke’s former pets came to her serendipitously she says, citing an experience in her youth when a stranger thrust a puppy into her hands, got into her car and sped off. Because of this, Burke resolved that fate would bring her a dog if it…
