After their Beagle Moe passed away in the beginning of April, Mary Architzel Westbrook and her 3-year-old son Luke started writing him letters, addressed to “Moe Westbrook, Doggie Heaven, Cloud 1,” according to her essay in Distinction Magazine.

Typically, Westbrook who is from Norfolk, Virginia, took the letters out of her mailbox after Luke went to bed, but one night she forgot. Two weeks later, Mary found an unstamped message in her mailbox. The return address simply read, "From Moe."

Westbrook assumed that the letter would be tossed away, but someone at the post office had a much better idea.

"Im in doggie heaven," the letter read. "I play all day. I am happy. Thank you 4 being my friend. I wuv you Luke."
