Biography

At some point in his childhood, Hank Heywood adopted a pet Labrador and named it Silver after Lone Ranger's horse.

Decades later, Hank used his pet's name as a password for his e-mail account. Nate Heywood tricked him into saying the name of the pat as a part of father-son bonding talk during the Time Bureau mission in 1973. It could be presumed that dog was deceased by that time, as dogs generally rarely live past 20 years.^[1]
