Year 2002 Tributes

Earnest thru Ewok

To Earnest,

Not a day goes by that I don't think of you and what a good dog you were. The times on the beach when you would dig for your special rock even if you had to stick your head underwater to get it.

I tried to save you but I couldn't. You are my best friend.

Scarlett had surgery in February for breast cancer. Her appetite had improved and she seemed better until the past week, when she became less active. I was very preoccupied during this time with my friend Jim's loss of his darling dog Roscoe to cardiomyopathy and had not noticed until the weekend that Scarlett's breathing was becoming labored. My daughter is a nurse and when she listened to Scarlett's chest with a stethoscope last night, it was clear that her lungs were filling with fluid. I called first thing this morning and made an appointment for Dr. Jeff to help her to the Rainbow Bridge at 7 this evening. My daughter was home with her today, and called me at work 10 minutes ago to say that Scarlett was having seizures and I needed to come right away, that she would take her to the vet's herself except that she didn't think she could manage it by herself with her 2-year-old and 3-month-old daughters. I had shut down my computer and was leaving the office when she called back and said that Scarlett was gone. I feel really bad that I didn't notice her worsening symptoms soon enough to spare her these last few days of suffering. She was a marvelous kitty -- very mellow and gentle. We will miss her terribly.

Sally Knox

My most cherished memory of you is as a puppy, when you use to climb under the covers in my bed, and I always woke up to you asleep on the spare pillow wrapped up in the covers.

I remember the time when I was upset over something and you came up to me and sniffed my face, your way of saying its ok mum. I still love you ! You always made me feel better when I felt sad.

I miss the whining you made when your ball got lost under the sofa, you wouldn't stop till we got it for you.

But most of all I'll miss that little stumpy tail wagging away when I walk through the door.

Always in my heart never far away from my thoughts XXX Love Mummy

To my little man who stayed beside me through all the hard time. I will always love you...

Jill Webster

Dear Ebbie,
My heart is so heavy that your life had been taken because of the incompetence of the vet who did not check you for your pheno levels. You did not have to die and I hope you know that mommy did everything she could for you. I miss so much you waiting at the door for me and just having you to talk to. If I had only know about the pheno levels and that you had to be checked I would have taken you to a new vet. Please forgive me for not knowing and know that I love you more than anything in the world and I miss you so very much. I hope your stay at Rainbow Bridge will be happy because I know when the time is right, you will come back to me and daddy and we will be waiting for your love and you. You were the most wonderful friend and pet. Please Ebbie, know that I would have done anything for you and I'm so sorry all this happened to you. We will love you and keep you in our hearts always.

Gloria Slater

Our special little black Persian who gave unconditional love. He is so sadly missed especially by Dixie. Ebony, I can't tell you how much I loved your gentle ways, your soft meow and your sweet, loving personality. I shall always remember our very special times especially during the evenings we spent together. You were always by my side loving me in return and never asking for anything. You were and are so very special. I shall never forget you. Losing you broke my heart, my soul and my spirit. I know I'll see you again someday. Until then be safe and happy on Rainbow Bridge with your mom and new friends. I love you from the bottom of my heart and miss you terribly. Dixie

I lost Ebony during her spaying operation, she was only six months old. she was born here and lived with her natural mother, we all miss her very much. Sweet dreams little beb

Heather Wallace

You guys are so special to everyone you met. Everyone fell in love with you. You will always be in my heart. I MISS YOU GUYS!! you will always be my babys.

Brittany

Thanks for teaching me more about myself than anyone I've ever known. I hope you knew how much I loved you. You'll always be my "good girl".

Sharon Forbes

We will miss you, old friend.

Jan and Dave

My dear little Echo..I wish I had gotten the chance to know you. I rescued your poor broken body from a cold rainy parking lot, where some inconsiderate person had left you to perish. I will never forget the way you cried out to me, lifted your head and tried to come to me. I don't know if you had an owner somewhere, or if you had a name besides the one I gave you. But I pray that when I brought you to the vet you were allowed to go in peace and comfort to a better place. I love you with all my heart little angel, I think of you all the time.

Danielle Cameron

My sweet baby dog,
You have only been gone for a few days now. I miss you so. My heart is breaking. I keep looking for you in the house, and I long to feel you climb so helplessly into the bed to snuggle. I knew you could have jumped, but you just wanted to be dramatic. I was only blessed to have you in my life for two short years. I pray that I gave you enough love to make up for the first four hellish months of your life. If only my love could have cured you. I am trying so hard to remember the good times, but I keep seeing your little face on that last day. I am still struggling with the decision I had to make. I will love you forever.
Mom

Thank you for the times of comfort and joy. Thank you for the dreams we had together. I miss you so much. My heart feels as though it will break. Someday we will be together again--someday we will "touch" again. Until then, I release you to the heavens..

Sharon Johnson

Please help me pray for my tiny baby, Edd, who died too soon, less than a year old on Christmas day of a mysterious illness no vet could diagnose. Christmas will never be the same for me. I ache for his touch. He was a special being. So much love to give. My life will be empty without his comfort. Pray that his love will be reincarnated in my life, or another who needs it even more than I do.

Eddie was a beautiful, blonde wirey-haired, loving companion & my buddy. He loved going for walks & riding in the car with me. I still have his mom (Chihuahua), his dad (Poodle/Min. English Sheep Dog), & his brother. I watched him go to the Rainbow Bridge & I can't wait to see him again!

Mikki, Mama, Caitlynn, & Cecalee-Mica, Muffy, & Guido.

Sadly missed, our hearts are broken after this very special boy was torn away from us after suffering from Addisons disease, will this sadness ever pass he was only a baby, why God why.

Michelle Hargreaves

Please all say a prayer today 8th April as today is Eddie's birthday. He died 15th Feb 2002, his life cut all too short by sudden illness. He would have been 3 today. We sadly miss our beautiful Poodle boy and would give anything to have you here with us. Love you forever.

We escorted Eddy on her final journey. Eddy had Leukodystrophy and went down very fast. Eddy, you gave so much and asked so little in return. You are sadly missed, a great hole is left in our family. We love you and send you on with love.

You were a GOOD BOY. Mommy will sit in your spot in the sun, on the edge of the kitchen window, and think of you every day until we meet again and cross the rainbow bridge with you in my arms and your wet kisses on my nose. We love you Edgar-baby. Wait for Mommy.

When I was in 11th grade, my sister brought home a little black and white juvenile cat (mostly kitten, but becoming more adult) to our house because he had no home. I refused to let myself be warmed to him at first because the last cat I deeply loved, Strobe, was clipped by a car and had a split palette and very bad head injuries, which was scary to look at. I was 12 at the time that happened. At the time I got Eddie I was 17 and I was too scared to love a cat again. Edmund came into my life and he loved me without any restraint. He chose me, and we shared a deep bond that I will never feel again, despite having other cats, because it was unique to us. He suddenly went missing late 1995, early 1996. I looked for him everywhere, but with a dull calmness I knew that he had gone. I've never let myself accept him as gone, and I never really put up a memorial or anything. I had a photo of him in my file at school. I'm 22 now, and I've left school, but Edmund's legacy lives on - I now have two furbabies, and a fursister (my sister's cat that I look after), and my heart is full of love. I always miss you Eddie.

Edward, you were such a special bunny. To those who didn't know you, you were just a plain black bunny, but to us at South Jersey Rabbit Rescue, you were an inspiration. Such a sweet & loving hus-bun to your wife, Holly, who groomed you to baldness, and such a delight to take care of for us humans who loved so dearly - you will be missed much and never forgotten. Your memory lives on through the future bunnies we rescue.

Joanne from SJRR

Eeyore -- fluffy, beautiful, loving boy. Whether sitting, abandoned, on our office steps until I took you in, or poking your gorgeous huge head through the stair railings to collect admiring pats from visitors, or flopping belly-up at everyone's feet to beg attention, you've been a special joy for the eleven years you've shared with us. Rest now with Garfy and Fen and H.Kat, wonderful boy. Sebastian, Guinness (Extra Stout), Moses, Oscar (Wilde Cat), Bailey, Bo, and the people who've loved you.

My heart still misses you and I see you in the stars. Purr sweet my lil angel! Mommy

To my much loved Eightball. You were just a kitten when I picked you up from a family who had advertised you in the newspaper. You and Ace hissed and hissed at each other for hours but became brothers. When I lost Ace, you were there to comfort me in my time of need and you never got into trouble. Even though I at times called you my bowling ball, which you know you were 30 lbs., I loved you dearly. You were so affectionate and were so cute when you ran, because it was really just a waddle. I was so sad when you became sick but did the best I could to keep you going with the fluids. Friday night you told me that you could not go on any longer and Saturday it was over. You will be missed VERY VERY Much!

With All My Love,
Your Dad, Julian

My very special loving friend.

Einstien was one of my best friends yesterday the 8th he went out side and started yelping ran straight in side and collapsed on the bed he laid there for ten minuets not moving and he finally tried to move and could not move his back legs and started yelping again so my grandma and mom suggested we take him to an animal clinic and they told us a disk blew out and was paralyzed in his back legs so they kept him over night and today on the 9th we picked him up and brought him to his normal vet and they said they would keep him there for a couple more hours after that his body was completely paralyzed and we had to put him to sleep I cried for hours and we get his ashes back on the 15th and were going to bury him in Virginia under some nice shady trees

Dear Einstien, I want you to know I love you so much and no other dog will ever take your place.

With all the love in the world, Sarah

On the 31st of July 2001, I lost one of my very best friends his name was EINSTEIN. He was a beautiful White German Shepherd, my friend and family member. I was lucky to find him at the animal shelter that fateful day and I was so lucky to be able to adopt and save him, bring him home to live with me and Homer who passed to the bridge on March 24, 2000.

EINSTEIN was a gentle old soul from the day I got him. His temperment was so mellow and cool except when it came to cats. He was soothing to my soul and could ease my stress in moments. He was an incredible boy, I miss him very much.

Why don't dogs live as long as we do???? I hurts so much when you have to help them over the bridge.

I helped my friend EINSTEIN pass over to the Rainbow Bridge that sad sad morning of July 31, 2001.

I held him and talked to him and laid down beside him and wept for such a long long time. My EINEE BOY had developed lymphoscaroma and he just didn't want to stay here anymore. I wish that I had been able to ease his pain and suffering, but no medication helped him. He had lost so much weight, the best thing to do for my baby was to help him to the Bridge.

I wrote a poem for EINEE BOY, and would like to share it with you. I miss him so very very much.

YOU WERE SO STRONG

You were only three months old, and no one wanted you,
I saw you one day and I knew you were mine.
I knew we would bond and love one and other forever.
You were so young and helpless, when I brought you home.
You grew to be so strong.

You were my Pound Puppy - Love Bucket baby boy.
Over the years, you brought me so much joy.
Companionship and a sense of security I knew when I was with you.
I loved you so and I know that you loved me too.
You were so strong.

We'd go for walks, how you loved them so very much.
You would smell my tennis shoes.
You couldn't hold back your joy and excitement.
You were ready to go and explore the world.
You were so strong.

In the beginning it was the three of us.
Me, you (Einstein) and your brother Homer.
We camped, we walked, we played, and talked.
You were gentle from the beginning with an old soul.
You were so strong.

You would lie down beside me and lift your little head.
Every so often just to be sure I was near.
I was always there for you, like you were for me.
When you were with me, I had nothing to fear.
You were so strong.

But you grew old and sick and not nearly as active.
But, you still loved your walks and little doggie treats.
You knew certain words, want to go for walk?
Lets go to grandpa and grandmas, lets go to bed.
You were so strong.

You became very ill and just wanted to sleep.
You hardly ate anything not even your treats.
Now you're gone, and I'm alone, but I know.
You're playing, resting and healthy once more.
I know in my heart.
You're now very strong.

In loving memory of my Einstein - My Love Bucket

Einey was born a barn cat and he was the cutest little guy. He so wanted to be one of the house cats, but I already had 6. He took up residence in the garage and chose to be the outside-house cat. Although a tom, he never beat up on anyone and shared a couple of years with another barn kitten we called Einey's friend. Einey was a dark tabby with wild white hairs in his ears and he looked like good old Albert. He was a very sweet kitty and I loved him. Be happy with the others, Einey, and wait for me. We can all be house cats together.

Karen Dalton-Wemp

Einstein, you gave joy, love, protection and comfort for nearly ten years. You are missed greatly and still loved daily.

Connie Derwacter

This is a tribute to the best friend and companion we have ever had. Einstein was the sweetest loving pet. We truly love and miss you Ein.

Jeff, Ninfa & Jeffrey Jr.

She taught me so much

Marcia

A month has gone by since we lost you my darling Ellie. Not a day has past though that you have not been in our thoughts. We hope that you are happy at Rainbow Bridge, and if you are not there, we know that you are with God, and doing the job that he always intended for you. I'm not really sure that I believed before, but, now I know that I do. I know that you were only lent to us for a short time, but that does not stop us missing you. You were our light, our life, a life that is now a little dimmer. I'm glad that you are home sweetheart, just wait for mummy, and we will cross the bridge together.

You were our baby - our first born. You were an angel sent from heaven maybe that's why you were only here for a short time. You will never be forgotten, you will live in our hearts forever. You were like no other cat, so loving and so friendly. You made everyone you met fall in love with you and changed the minds of many who didn't understand why we would want a hairless cat. You were everything to us, we miss you so much. Save us a place on the other side of the bridge where we can be together again! We Love You!
Love Mommy & Daddy Gato

I never believed life could be so hard. Every hardship I go through without you is almost unbearable. You were my whole life and the reason I got out of bed everyday. I still don't know where you ended and I began and I miss you so much. You fought long and hard against diabetes and won so many times, it's hard to believe your gone now. I pray you are at peace and no longer suffering. I will never forget our time together and never stop telling anyone who will listen about you. You are so missed. I love you, "My little man!" See you soon, Mommie

Dear Sweet Ellie Boy,

You were my first pet, and the first one I lost. The pain of that loss is still with me, as it is with your grieving mate, Clara, who is angry and mopey by turns, as if it were my fault you are no longer here. I wish you could tell her it could have been no other way. I miss everything about you. I never understood the depth of my love for you until you got sick and we were bound so tightly in all the hours of ministrations as I tended you. My heart has broken and I know it will heal, that I will get Clara another mate, but I will never, ever forget that it was you, my bunny son, who taught me to be human.

My warmest bunny hugs from a mommy who still grieves for her beloved bunny boy.

Kim

Eliza...beautiful Eliza...why did you bring me such a wonderful blessing and then disappear like that?? I love you Eliza and I always will no matter what. You are my light and joy!! you used to follow me around thinking I was your mommy and I loved it, you WERE my baby. If I could I would hold you and kiss you and wash you and and just plain old LOVE YOU!!! you never realize how much you love something until after its gone. I hope you time on earth was the best anyone could ever ask for. I will love you forever and ever...

~*~Ash~*~

There is not enough to say about my dog, Ellie, other than she was truely my "best friend". Over the past 14 years, she and I have been through many things....good times, and bad, sad, and many happy. This has been very hard to deal with and I am going to miss her very much. She was a fantastic pet and had a very good life. I believe she is in a much better place, healthy and free. She is forever in my heart of hearts. What an impact she had made. She was a true companion.
With love to Ellie!

If tears could build a stairway
And memories build a lane
I would climb my way to heaven
And bring you home again
Author Unknown

I will love you always Ellie.

Dianne Kluck

Happy Birthday my sweet Ellie. I miss you terribly. My life will never be the same Love always Mommy

Dianne Kluck

These precious words can only say
you loved me well and are ever loved by me
I know we will join again

XXXOOO

Karin Eder

In loving memory of Ellie and all our gentle, innocent and unconditionally loving souls who have passed on.

Ellie was the light that proved to me that pure goodness can (and does) exist in our world. I pray that her goodness finds peace and joy beyond this world. And I pray that we are together again once I cross over.

I love you, Ellie!

James

You were my baby, my special little man, the "Zen" pet in our chaotic household. You touched my soul in a way no other pet ever has. I will miss you trailing me around the house, being my constant shadow. Your gentleness, sensitivity and perception, protectiveness, and own special brand of Sweet El love will be sorely missed and can never be replaced. You are my heart and I am so glad you shared your short, special life with Dad and me. Sweet dreams my little El-Man.

Anne Zimmerman & Bob Morgan

We loved you Elmo with all our hearts. We know you are in a better place now, but things will never be quite the same here without you. Rest in peace, and know that we will someday see you again.

Terri, Todd, Alex, Aidan, and Bruno

Elsa we miss you and love you, Mary, Brad and your fur buddies Jenna, Shelby and Henry

We love you sweet bird!

Anna and Mike Wachala

I miss you, my sweet baby girl, with all my heart.

KMB

Promise was my special girl. She touched the lives of everyone she met. She served proudly as an Arkansas Personal Pony, Ambassador Pony, and a registered member of the Delta Society. My life will never be the same. Race across the pasture girl. It may be awhile, but I'm coming, too.

Brea Fike

Elvis has gone to heaven, he was a special dog who touched hundreds of lives. Although he had many problems, blind for the last 9 years, deaf for last two years. He was a rescue dog so we don't know old he was exactly. We were his proud parents for the last 9 years of his life.
One thing about Elvis is he always had a smile on his face and loved to play with his toys and tennis balls.
We miss him dearly and know now that he's in heaven, he can see and hear again!

Earle & Mary Herebrt

My dogs were my children and I miss them so. Elvis was a mutt we rescued from a highway. He was not so smart--but he was the sweetest dog.

Sugar was my uncles dog. When he passed, we took her. She died the same way my uncle died. I know they are running around heaven together.

I miss them so much.

Roz O'Brien

A dog who twice saved my husband's life is sadly missed. She was always in good health but towards the end of her long life she was severely stricken with seizures and joint problems. Now after having saved her from euthanasia 17 years ago sadly we had to see her ago. A compassionate vet injected her on the grass in the garden so she was spared the smells and sights of a vet's office. We look forward to seeing her once again over the rainbow bridge.

Mary Anne

He was my best friend and my protector. He had a special and loving way about him and everyone he ever met, be it an adult or child seemed to love Emil.

I have him buried at a private residence of a dear friend and thank God I can visit him when I please.

Olivia Kelley

My special baby, I love and miss you and your sister so very much. I think of you every day and miss you so very much. Always remember how much mommy loved you....

Debbi Weldon

Emily was the most special rat that I have ever had the privilege of knowing. She was affectionate, intelligent, and just plain wonderful. She was the perfect rat ambassador. Everyone who met her changed their minds about rats because of her outgoing nature and charm. Emily had such a presence for one so small and the house seems empty without her. Goodbye sweet Emily! We will miss you!

Arlene and Frank Thompson

Emily will be badly missed by me. She was with us for 15 years. She was always there waiting for me to come home. Always by my side. She was there when I needed her. And, in the end, I was there for her.
My loving memory of Emily will never fade. Thank you, God, for bringing her to me

Cathy Lemanowicz

Your sadly missed we all love you

Maureen B

I purchased Emily after my husband died in 1994. She was my soul mate, my "treasure" as I called her. She was always there for me. Even as she drew near her death from congestive heart failure, she licked away my tears from my face. It was the hardest thing I had to do to make the decision to send her to the rainbow bridge but I know in my heart she is there waiting for me. Goodby my Emily...I miss you terribly.

Judy Owen

I just learned of this page. Emily Jordan wasn't mine for long. I got her from the vet. I didn't know that she was so sick. I had taken her to the vet several times. She died in my arms of lymphoma, I loved this little rascal. I hope that she has met up with her canine sister Theresa Deanna there on Rainbow Bridge and I hope that she also found my maternal grandmother. I am sure that they would love one another. So Little Jordie. I loved and still love you and hope you are fine and happy now. From your human Mom, Mama Jean

I miss your close snuggle against me. When I called home, you knew my voice. You knew my footsteps and greeted me with your song before I opened the door. You came to find me when I left the room. You called to me when you were alone and needed my company. You were my best finger friend. I am so sorry that I let you down. Please, oh please sweetest Emma, forgive me. My broken cannot heal. No one will ever replace you. Please look for me at Rainbow Bridge. May I be there soon. I love you always.

Phillip James Forgione

My dearest companion, I will grieve forever

Freda Jones

We loved you more than words can say. Never will a day pass without us thinking of you. We miss your shining happy face and the funny way you would talk to us. You truly were the light of our lives.

Kim and Greg Martin

Thank you for all your love and loyalty. You were such a good girl. I'm relieved, now you can run, jump and make those successful frisbee catches.
I'm sorry the tumor took you so fast but I feel confident we said our goodbyes. I know now it was time for you to go. I only wish it wasn't so soon. I'll miss you my Emmagirl, Doops, Doopie, Poopa Doops, and Girlie Girl.
See you at The Bridge
Love-
Your Missy

Linda

She was with me longer than any pet I'd ever had.

Kurt Messick

My sweet little baby has gone away -- I will miss you so Love, your daddy.

Darling Emma, beloved and greatly missed companion of Frances and Aldous.
Called back on 9th February at 5.30pm.
God Bless you, little one, for all your love and loyalty -
for being the truly "special" friend that you were.

"You are gone, but not forgotten,
Never will your memory fade,
For always will your memory linger,
Round the spot where you are laid."

See you at "The Bridge", Emma Darling. xxx Jan and Maureen

Goodbye, Emma Jane. Goodbye to our gallant old girl, alpha kitty, Queen. The world was never kind to you, all those years as a stray, fighting to survive, until we were lucky enough to rescue you as you rescued us. We had lost Sabby, and you filled our house with your sometimes-grumpy presence, for 4 1/2 years. You showed us your heart, and your soul, and adopted us as we adopted you. We will always remember you with admiration and love.

Goodbye.

Boyd and Barbara Jones

But for the loving heart of Ursula Linhard, we never would have had a chance to love our baby, Emmet. We thank her so much!

Ellen Collins

Emmit loved me more than I have ever been loved and I loved him more than anything or anyone in this world. He was a gentle, kind and wise man who spoke with his heart; always there for me. He was born in my hand in New York City and died in my arms, 13 years and 3 months later in Encino, Calif. My heart is broken.

Jennifer Lee Pryor

Emmitt you are constantly in our thoughts and in hearts. You are missed everyday by your brothers mom and dad granny Bundy and Joey. We know that you are taking great care of munchie and are our guardian angel until we meet again at rainbow bridge. We look forward to the day we can feel your kisses on the nose, feel your soft fur against our faces and see the stubby tail that wagged so happily to see us come home everyday.. You are missed tremendously and will never be forgotten. I love you my skinny little boy. Love always mom, dad and your brothers Fortunato.

Emmy was the sweetest spirit.She never fluffed her tail in anger. She enjoyed 19 years of life with us. When her roommate Nikki passed on 2 years ago, she grieved with us. Emmy always had a "silent" meow, especially when she was hungry. She had the biggest and brightest eyes that would just warm your heart whenever she looked at you. We miss you baby and your roommate Mimi is now grieving your passing with us. But I know you're happy and healthy now and ever so glad that you've been reunited with Nikki. Be happy Hon Bun. We love you.

Briget Zimmerman

Emmy Lou was an extraordinary dog who brought gentleness and love into the lives of everyone who was lucky enough to know her. She has made our home a dwelling of love for five years. We will miss her smile, her tapping feet on the floor, the "alarm clock" that she became at 6:00 a.m. and 6:00 p.m. feeding times, her face in the rearview mirror when she went for rides in the car, and the snuggles that she gave every night on the couch and on the bed. We love and miss you, Emmy Lou. Ann, Courtney, Pumpkin, and Sadie Mae.

I miss you my little friend, Our time was much to short, I'll never forget you and the joy you brought into my life, I hope I was able to do the same for you. When ever I think of you I'll always smile and remember all of the great memory's we shared, I can't thank you enough for being part of my life. God Bless you my little boy.

Oh Ender, my sweet little boy. We miss you so much. You were such a good boy! We miss you so much. I cry all the time. That terrible terrible day when we had to put you down was one of the worst of my life. The days since have been so empty and sad. Everywhere are reminders of you. Rowdy looks for you, she misses you too. We love you so much baby! We know you couldn't help the way you were, but we couldn't risk having you hurt someone. I would give anything to have made things different, baby. I'm so sorry that's what had to happen. We love you so much Ender! Be at peace baby. We love you always.

Eric, I knew you for such a short, short time but I miss you so badly. You were the cutest, sweetest, amazing little character and the rabbit I'd always hoped for. I wanted to give you the better life you deserved but God tore you away from me before I even got a chance.

I'm so, so sorry, my little mate. I wanted the best for you and wanted you to live out the rest of your days happy and healthy. I'd do anything to have you back. I love you, Eric, more than you could ever realize.

Julianne Bonner

My sweet Erin was murdered by two coyotes. She saved another dog who was trapped behind a washing machine with the hose around her neck. She will always be my guardian angel.

Gretchen Knowles

My beautiful little girl not a day goes by that I don't feel your loss and miss you. Mommy loves you baby, always know that and please remember that I will see you again. Wait for me at the Bridge good girl. I Love You.

My beloved Erin, bringing me joy and helping to relieve the stress of the rigor of day to day life. You will always be both in my heart and part of my life.

John Dicicco

Ernie, losing you is so painful, you were my little shadow, my little fuzzy butt beggar dog...you knew a snack was never far behind...you loved to throw your cookies in the air, then eat them...and tilt your head when we spoke to you..your little spirit is in my heart...till we meet at the bridge...your mommy

Run like the wind on legs that failed you long ago. See the faces of those you loved and lost when you lost your vision. Eat ice cream and hamburgers to your heart's content. Play catch with Poppy, Mike, and Cody. Live free from pain our dear yellow buddy. You were and always will be our sunshine. We love & miss you more than words can ever say.

I adopted Ernie from a foster home 14 months ago when he was 9 1/2 years old. From the first day, he was a constant joy in my life, following me everywhere I went in the house, purring and "talking" nonstop. He slept on a cushion on my desk each day as I worked at the computer, on a kitchen chair next to us as we ate our meals, and on our bed each evening. Ernie succumbed to congestive heart failure. We buried him yesterday in a special spot near our house. I will miss him dearly.

To our special pet, Ernie. Memories by the millions. You have left us, but left us with so much. From the very first day, in that airplane, with you on my lap to the last day when you finally rested your tired little eyes. Many days through out your life, We thought back to that day with a resulting smile. What always seemed like a common fixture around the house, the jingle of your dog tags still fill our ears with that familiar tune. And that little low "woof" you could slip out those times that you just wanted to catch our attention, it's still working.

Your now gone but rest as you can. You have done your job. The title of "Man's best friend" was earned many times over. What you gave to us, we could never detail, but as you'll see, another will come along. Not to be you, not to replace you, but the job you did, it was done so well, so that space you left will need to be filled. Maybe "dog to dog," you can send a little of you, and in his eyes, we will see just some of the past. Thank You, Mom and Dad XXX

Our best friend and companion for almost 16 years.

A very special friend who was a character from the day he was born to his last day.
A companion who would have given his life for his family and nearly did on several occasions.
Yogi we miss you already and the hole you have left can never be filled.
Wait for us at the Rainbow Bridge when we will be reunited but until that day, run my friend, run and chase those birds.
We will always love and miss you.

I thought my sunshine needed to be able to play outside, in the real sunshine. But, she was intended for more gentle care and I committed the worst sin of my life one day when coming home from work. Please forgive me Esme, I loved you so much and I love you still and think of you always. Momma

Etel dog, always loyal and kind,
Passed away peacefully and took a piece of our hearts with her to heaven.
I know 'My Et' will be waiting at heavens gate to walk me home when my time comes.
All who knew her , loved her. See ya, Et.

Eubie - You stayed with us so very long we were hoping you might stay forever. But deep down we knew today would come. You leave a hole in our hearts and our home so huge it will never be filled. But you also leave us memories so wonderful that we will forever be grateful to you for the joy you brought. We miss you. Denise & Paul

Now you are with your mom who crossed the bridge 10-21-02 and you will also be with your step brother HoonDog who has been there for some time. Have fun and enjoy your reunion. We love you

In your short life, you taught me so much about life, about love, and about myself. Ceud mile tapadh leibh, cat dubh.

Evie was a wonderful poodle who lived for 12 short years. She was such a fighter and spent the last half of her life in pain. She was born 2/2/1990 and died of renal failure on 4/20/2002. She held on for as long as she could because she knew she was my baby. Confidant, best friend. She was like one of my children and I love and miss her so much. Be a good girl till mommy sees you again rella. Cyndi Donato and family

To my babygirl, its been 6 months since you passed and not a day goes by that I don't think of you. you were so sick and the hardest thing I ever had to do was put you to sleep. you held on long enough for us all to tell you goodbye and that it was ok to go. know that we all love you and miss you .no one will ever take your place rella. I will see you again one day at the rainbow bridge. you were my baby girl, my good girl. be good and wait for me to see you again.

Ewok, is the third of our dogs to pass away within the last year. He was a special dog. He was my second Pom bought to keep Chue (passed away in February 1991 due to diabetes coma) while my husband and I worked. Ewok looked just like that, an Ewok out of a Stars Wars movie. He was a little rascal. He earned the nickname of Houdini within a matter of days. We would come home from work only to be greeted by this 12 week old dog who somehow managed to climb the baby gate and escape - having the entire run of the apartment. Poor Chue was left alone on the other side of that gate in the kitchen. Ewok cried and cried. My husband wanted to give him back to be with his mother. We had many of sleepless nights, and then found out he had an allergy to the fish in the puppy food. As the years passed, we acquired more Poms, some through rescue. Through it all, Ewok had one of the best dispositions. Always a yipper and a bouncer. Always excitable. He would run and dance in circles! He developed a fondness for licking toes - an acquired thing I know!! He was beautiful - a real fluff ball. The last few years brought him a collapsed trachea and a enlarged heart. We had all of that under control with medication. The last 2 weeks or so brought to him lethargy, and an overall feeling of being down. Some tests showed Erichnea and his liver acting up. Repeat tests were to come after the meds were in effect more. More meds to work through it all ... seizures came on next. No matter the medication, the seizures could not be under control, and they took on different symptoms. It was hard for us because after the seizure he was out little spunk monster again. We knew the night before that it was time ... his seizures took on another form and left him almost in mini comas. How did this happen so suddenly? As I look next to me, my 4 remaining Poms are by my side. Ewok, is now with Chue, Puddles, Lucy, and our big boy Oreo who we lost in August to cancer. Ewok, I can still hear you yipping ... I miss seeing you little guy.
