During
funeral of Navy Seal hero Jon Tumilson, his loyal dog Hawkeye lays down with a
sigh near his casket.
Jon
Tumilson, a Navy SEAL, was one of 30 Americans killed in Afghanistan on Aug. 6
when a rocket-propelled grenade took out a U.S. Chinook helicopter. He was
mourned at a service in Rockford, Iowa, attended by 1,500 family members,
friends--and Hawkeye, Tumilson's dog.
The
Labrador retriever was such an important part of Tumilson's life that the
friends and family of the San Diego resident called the dog his
"son."
When
Tumilson's friend Scott Nichols walked to the front of the room to speak,
Hawkeye followed, Today.com reports. "As Nichols prepared to memorialize
his friend, Hawkeye dutifully laid down near the casket."
