Year 2002 Tributes

Waco Von Wolf thru Wynthea's Whodoneit Isis

To My Best Friend, You are missed dearly by all who knew you. I know you are guarding the bridge from evil doers and are waiting for me, I count the days until I hear your loving hello. You are in my thoughts and heart every second of every day. I miss you "pretty girl" . Your loving friend, Tara Gish

Wags was ll for two months with lung cancer. We were advised to keep her as long s she was comfortable. We finally had to put her to sleep and to this day I yearn too pet her, hug her and just enjoy her. Carolyn Beland

Waimea, I cannot express how deep my grief is over your passing. Although you were only in my life for a short year, you will be loved, and missed, forever. I am so sorry that we were unable to keep you here, where I would have promised you a long life filled with tummy rubs, newspapers and Christmas trees. I will never be able to see my morning paper the same now that you're gone, or sleep in my bed without remembering how you loved kneading the comforter as you snuggled next to me. My only consolation is that I know that you are at peace, and that we will meet again one day. I will love you always, your "mommy" Staci.

This is a tribute to our Dachshund and friend of 15 years, Waldo. We will meet again at Rainbow Bridge.

Annette Pardue

Walker was my "runnin' buddy." He was my constant companion. Hunting rabbits, squirrels and deer was his passion. He died doing what he loved best. I miss his head on my chest and the love in his eyes. He was the best friend a person could have. He was my "Walkin' dog."

Sue Taylor

Part of my family, my life and my heart, has gone on to his next journey. I wish him wonderful things, and am so thankful for all the love and gentleness and companionship he gave so generously in the short time he spent with me.

Kari Wise

Wallis left this Earth surrounded by love. Her people parents, Jane and Jerry were there with a Rose from her people sister Kimberly Jane...She was lying on her LL Bean bed of Wallace Plaid that she had lounged and slept on since she was 6 weeks old. I wore a necklace of her beloved people niece, Brooke Elizabeth, aged 6 and at her side was a Dalmatian toy puppy her people niece Margaret Caroline aged 4, treasured...Caroline's first word was WaWa...P.S. both girls experienced Wallis's wagging tail in their face as they lay in their car seats when they were very small. She adored them and was always so gentle and careful with them when they were babies. Wallis sang to the Star Spangled Banner; which her people Aunt Birdie absolutely delighted in; and Ave Maria... until she chose not to sing or bark anymore. She ate everything in sight within her reach and that was just fine.
Toward the end we tended to her every need with not an ounce of dread...we would have done it forever. Finally her eyes, for a while, were saying I'm tired...I've stayed because I Love You...but It's time for me to go...I'll see you later when I'm new again! My husband Jerry brought Wallis into my life and I am eternally grateful to him for such a Special Gift. We kissed her and told her everybody by name that loved her, especially her people Grandmother and Grandfather who kept her for us when I couldn't consider boarding her. As she went to sleep...I kissed her face and eyes over and over as I closed them when she was gone...We wanted to take her home so bad right then, as the tears came. We had her cremated with her bed and the rose...and now she is at home with us forever.
The theme of the movie "Shawdowlands" says it best..."that's the deal"...the great joy of loving someone is worth the pain of loss...that is the deal and we all make it gladly! Jerry and I will bring a new furry child into our lives some day because it's the only way to live.
A very special Thank You goes out to North Carrollton Veterinary Hospital whose flawless professionalism and total understanding of our emotions made 26 July 2002 bearable.
Wallis you will live on in our hearts forever and a day.

Jane and Jerry Sparagowski

Wally, you truly were a very special baby. The day we went to the shelter and picked your brother Beaver, your loud cries said "don't leave without me". And we didn't. You both were the beginning of a home filled with four legged babies and the tremendous love you all brought with you. You saw all the babies come and you saw the majority of them go. I separated you from your brother four years ago and never should have, now you're back together with him and all of our other babies that have passed to the bridge. You endured some tough times but always managed to pull through. I tried my best to keep you comfortable and happy these last few years. I will miss you but I know you are in a better place and healthy again, so that you can run and play with your brothers and sisters until we are all together again. You will always be in my prayers at night. I love you.

Doug Daggett

We miss you so much and don't understand why you had to go so soon. Have fun over the bridge where you can run and play just like you used to. Just remember that we love you to pieces! We'll meet again one day.

Robyn

Wally,
Our special fleeting angel. You found us and then had to leave so quickly. We're still in shock and overcome with sadness, but we are so grateful we had you as our son for at least a little while. Never forget how much your Mom, Dad and little brother Riley love you. We'll miss you forever, our handsome, funny boy. Wait with Nicky at the bridge and we'll be there soon. We can't wait to see you both again. In the meantime, come visit often. Miss you forever and love you with all our hearts...Mommy, Daddy and Riley.

Dawn, Denis and Riley

Walt, for nearly 20 years you were a faithful companion and loving friend. We will miss you dearly, Majestic Cat.

Robyn

I won't say goodbye...for this is not a goodbye. I will miss everything about you; your face, your barks, your runs and every little moment that we spent together here on earth. You're the best "daughter dog" and friend I've ever had. From now on until the very last day of my life, I look so much forward to holding you and being with you again...from that day forward, we will NEVER EVER be apart. I LOVE YOU VERY MUCH, Wanda!

Lizza Isler

She leave me alone, and she never living alone. Pls pay more concern and care on her.... I can't hold her into my arms, can't kiss her anymore, can't sleep with her anymore....

Alison Lai

Warlock (dano) we miss you more than you could ever know. We want to thank you for making our lives better while you were with us. Topaz isn't the same without you. Until we can hold you again, know that you are always in our hearts.
We love you, and you will never leave our thoughts.

Tyson & Tiffini

My beautiful calico cat, I will miss your early morning wake-up call, the way you would talk to me so sweetly and keep me company throughout the day, how you would greet me at the door when I arrived home and the soft, silky feel of your lovely fur coat. I will always be grateful that you were in my life. Thank you for the generous, unconditional love you gave to me. I loved being your cat mama.

Patrice Meece

My adorably handsome black cocker spaniels' name is Watson. He was 12.5 years old when he suddenly passed away from a mysterious illness last Sunday morning, May 19th. He was born on Dec. 29, 1989. My name is Nora McNeely Hurley and Watson "Watty" was my furry soulmate and constant companion. He was full of love and great character and everyone who knew him loved him. He loved to chase the tennis ball and he really got excited about visiting his dinner bowl. His appetite seemed at times to be as big as his heart but his nature was to be the sweetest most affectionate friend to everyone. He was very original in a variety of ways and one example of that would be his " only child game" as I referred to it ... I would throw the ball for him and he would find it immediately and pick it up but would drop it a short distance away pretending that he had not found it and was looking for it all over again. When he was ready to bring the ball back he would end his imaginary search by pouncing on the ball. We were all so entertained by his creative game and I have never seen another dog play ball in such a way. He would make it ridiculously easy for us to throw the ball for him dropping it gently at our feet or in our hands. I knew that he was in an ecstatically happy state when he was playing ball because his little stubby tail would wag so quickly like a little Geiger counter of bliss. He would "sing" when I would sing and when I would tickle his tummy he would appear to "ride a bike" pedaling his little legs in the air. He was very patient with me and we always had the most fun together. He went to work with me daily and was exceedingly sociable. He traveled back to our summer home on a lake every summer and so enjoyed running around on the grass on the island, swimming and at times happily rolling in stinky dead fish. Our groomer referred to him as "The Young Republican" when he was a pup because he looked so noble, serious and wise and he eventually became" The Elder Statesman" as he grew white fur on his chin and whiskers and ears. He passed away so suddenly and I am so unprepared for life without him. I miss so many aspects of our life and shared love together. He was one in a million and I was truly blessed to know him. Please remember Watson in your memorials, tributes and prayers. I thank you all so much! Warm Regards, Nora McNeely Hurley

Wazzle my sweat heart I miss you so,
I know you didn't like kisses,
but on on me it began to grow,
my head is full of wishes,
you'll come back some day,

You didn't like black dogs
you fell into the pond
even ate the frogs,
mostly of all you sat and looked at James Bond

you know we love you,
we see you sometimes,
you come in through the door,
you may of been deaf but
you heard us say "SPAGGETTIEE BOLANIASE"
Love Charlotte Morris

Rest in peace my friend you will be missed.

Julie

Webbe was such a beautiful little girl. She was always happy and loved everyone. You couldn't help but smile when you looked at her. She will be missed by a lot of people!

Melanie

Webber you are greatly missed and will always be loved.

Lydia Maine

Webby was a special dog who lived 12 1/2 happy and fulfilling years. She battled kidney disease during her later years but she was a strong dog who we loved dearly. May she rest in peace and we will see her when we depart this life. We'll never forget her.

Graham, Margie, Frank, and Lena Porell

To a dear and loving friend:
Thank you for the joy you brought to us every day
We miss you and will remember you always in our hearts

Stephen Tyson

Our wee honey. We miss you so much and are sorry what happened yesterday and we couldn't be with you. We miss your barking all the time and playing with your ball. Wait for us at Rainbow Bridge and we will think of you always - especially at the pitches - your favourite place. Love from mammy & daddy. We will take care of Cassie and Blackie..

George & Jennifer

You were a wonderful cat and we love and miss you so much. You will never be far from our thoughts. I hope you meet your sister Sammie at Rainbow Bridge.

Becky and Brittany

Your heart should have been as strong as it was big. We'll love and miss you for the rest of our lives.

David and Nancy

May you rest in peace now. You will always be remembered, never forgotten. Love ya Wembles and miss ya

The Vanderkamp Family

Wendy was a special little friend who made a place for herself in the center of our family.

Westie was an angel. She was always so gentle and sweet and full of love. You were always smiling -- our ray of sunshine. We miss and love you. You will always be in our hearts. Go play with Barney and Arthur and say hi to Max, Mother Victoria, Grems and Prissy as well Caesar, Ralph and Bambi. Love, Dan and Diane, Shorty, Henry, Maddie and Molly.

Now it has been two days since I lost you, so unexpectedly. You were still a young dog, only 9, but you always did have trouble dealing with other dogs and you were so quick to react to any "insult". I know this was not your fault, as you were not given the right opportunity, when you were just a little guy, to be properly socialized and so, by the time you came to me, your personality "flaws" were already set. I know you did not really want to pick a fight with the "big" dog, and I know that she did not mean to hurt you. But you probably could not back down - it was not your nature - and so, you received the worst of it.
I am sorry I was not there to protect you, from her and yourself, I let you down and I will have a hard time dealing with that. But I know that you are now in a place with no pain or fear, no worries or need for confrontations.

Be at peace, Boo Boo, and don't worry about anything anymore. Look for Coyote, I know he will be there waiting for you and will take care of you. And we will see you again

We love you and we miss you.

"Mom", "Dad", Chaz and Holly

Wheezy,
Although we had to say goodbye for now, we will see you again one day at the Rainbow Bridge. I love you and miss you with all my heart. Sleep well, baby girl. You are at peace now.

Love,
Mommy

Whimpy, we love you. You left our home but never our hearts. When the time comes we'll meet again, and be happy.

My little ninna pig. My against-the-odds, love-is-not-disposable. my carpet-colored rug rodent, my littlest baby girl. We will miss you.

Michiele Langley

My faithful friend and companion, as I brought you home for the last time there was a huge rainbow in the sky. Knowing your time for leaving me was drawing near, I had read the poem, "Rainbow Bridge," and wept. Today when I saw the rainbow I was comforted especially when I noted it appeared to end at our house where you were to be buried. For as long as I have a memory, my beloved friend, you will be with me. Someday I pray that you will greet me at Rainbow Bridge!
I love you, my Whippersnapper!

Catherine Owenby

To the Best Friend I Ever Had - Whip
You will live in me forever
I have a deep, black hole inside my heart since you left
If I could take back my cancer to let you live, I would
Loosing you is the worst that thing that has or will ever happen to me
Loving you was the best thing I ever had

Goodbye & I wish to join you soon
All my love forever - me

Whiskers was loved by all and brought happiness wherever she went. She has left our family with many fond memories that has now brought us closer together. Thinking of her makes me warn inside and brings a smile to my face.

Her memory will live on in all of us who knew her.
I love my puppy

Whiskers (To My Little Man):
You gave me almost 11 years of pure joy. You were the cutest, sweetest and best bunny that ever lived (EVER). You took a huge piece of my heart with you on June 16, 2002. I look forward to the day you can give it back to me. You will always be my baby boy.
Love your Momma.

To Whiskey our beloved Cocker Spaniel: Mom and Dad miss you so much. Thank you for your unconditional love you gave us for 12 years. We will always love you Goober! We will be together again someday. Love, Mom and Dad

You were so wild and such a mess when Bonnie rescued you, but you quickly became a lap cat that longed to please. You always came when you were called. You were so happy to sleep between Kirk and me. We are sure you ate asparagus to make us happy :-) You showed me what a little love can do to make a huge difference. Thanks for being in our lives for these past, but oh so short, four years.

WLYIAF - Nancy

To my beautiful kitty: I loved you more than you will ever know. You were my furry child. I am so sorry that I let you roam the neighborhood freely. I thought that I was doing the best for you. I had no idea that you would get into something that would poison you. I am so sorry and I love you so much. I miss your meows and your "making bread" on me every five minutes. I miss you when I am sleeping because without you it is so lonely. From you I have learned alot about cats and poisons and to that I am grateful. Goodbye Whisper. Goodbye.

Alyse was a wonderful Therapy Dog - she belonged to Therapy Dogs International and put a lot of smile of children and adults in nursing homes, hospitals, etc. She will be sorely missed by many to whom she gave such unconditional love.

Elaine Perry

Even though more than a year has passed, you are still dearly missed.

We know you are using your special gifts to comfort those in need.

Muffin, Amy, and I are fine. But we miss your conversation, sweet purr, and warm company.

We love-ses yous, my baby

Larry, Amy and Muffin

Last year, when my sister was dying of cancer, a stray cat came to my door. I named him White Paws because of the beautiful white markings on his paws, face and chest. He gave me great comfort and love during the painful year of my sister's illness and, finally, her death. Coming home late from the hospital, White Paws would greet me, lie on my lap and I would cry into his fur. He gave me enormous comfort. Unfortunately, from the beginning of his brief time with me, White Paws was diagnosed with kidney failure, and though he put up a valiant fight, there was finally no more either of us could do this last week. My wonderful vet came to my home and as I held my sweet White Paws, his energy passed from his body. Thank you, dear White Paws, for helping me during the last fifteen months. You helped me during my sister's illness and at her passing through your simple acts of kindness. You were and still are my cat angel.

Margaret Stricklett

To the Love of My Life - I will miss you forever!

Mary H

My most precious "Sweet White Cake".

Mark A. Rush

We miss you Whitney.

Marilyn Mullins

I miss her still..........

Lissa

You were with us for such a short time. We wanted you to be part of our lives till you were an old man. You had such a hard 2 years and I know that you are in a place where you are no longer in pain. Oh, how we loved you and tried so hard to keep you here with us. You wormed your way into our hearts "little dude". If only our tears could of healed your broken kidneys. We miss you and want to thank you for being our kitty.

Jeff & Sherri

My darling beautiful girl, I miss you so much.

Kristin Kiernan

To my Whoopie Doo,
You have been a very special cat/friend to me. Thru all these years you have been with me thru good and bad times.
I will miss having you by my side but I know you will always be in my heart until I see you again. There will be no more suffering for you and that makes me feel warm inside.

Sonya O

Loved still! Missed still!

Joanne Wood

Whizzy...you struggled for so long, fighting your epilepsy. You were a brave girl, and a gentle soul. You were always our friend and companion. We will miss you. Ascii is going to miss her "puppy" the most.

Love,

Ceil, Bruce and Ascii (your pug buddy)

She came into our lives a tiny bundle of fur, fluff and energy. She gave us joy, laughter, and unconditional love. She is greatly missed.

Jill and Tony

Our beautiful girl, she flew like the wind when she ran, she was gentle and kind with other animals and people, she loved to play & played up to the end. She had the soul of an angel and has now left us to return to being an angel.

She is now returned to youth, vigour and health; she is now able to run like the wind again, play for hours on end and her vision and hearing have been restored to whole.

Our poor old girl aged incredibly after having suffered and survived bloat & torsion and the ensuing medical treatment to save her. While she was somewhat more stiff, moved more slowly & did not play as much, she was not in pain and we continued to spoil our beloved baby. We respected her needs and desires, when she wished to play we would play and when she just wish to be with us we would pet her, brush her and talk to her. Her strong heart and will to survive allowed her to recover from this incident and we are grateful for the extra 1 1/2 years that she was able to remain with us.

We miss her dearly, our special angel has left us and our selfishness wishes she was still with us. There will never be a replacement for our beautiful Wickey .....

Dearest Widetrack,

How I hope you are O.K. You gave me a wonderful 3 1/2 years of devoted love, friendship and company. I was not alone anymore. Your loving nudges and hugs gave me more comfort than anything in the world. How I hope you are healthy and young again. Please come to me in my dreams to let me know you are all right and waiting for me at Rainbow Bridge. Please come back to me in my dreams. I miss you terribly. I need to know we will be together again.
Your constant company laying in your bed next to my desk in my office were the most pleasant and peaceful times. Who needed the rest of the world when it was just you and me in the comfort of our home. Mommy misses you terribly too.

We love you with all our heart.

Mom and Dad (Denise and Mark)

Widget Susan, your mommy and daddy miss you SOOOOO much! You were such a good girl; we love you with all our hearts. We know you are now in a better place and that now you can hear again and your heart is no longer sick. Your brothers and sisters miss you too. We miss seeing your precious pug mug peeking around corners. Mommy and daddy tried so hard to keep you with us, but it just wasn't meant to be. I'm just glad we were with you when you went to the Bridge. I hope you've found your brother Black Jack and the two of you be good kids until mom and dad can be with you again. Lots of love and Pug Hugs from your family!

Wiffel,
There's not a day that goes by that I don't pray to see you again. There hasn't been a night that I haven't looked up into the stars and wished to see your shining face again. Wiffel you meant the world to me and I just wish you could send me a sign to tell me that you're okay but I guess I'll just have to wait til I leave this place to be with you. It's only been 2 months since you left but to me it feels years have gone by. To me it's not good-bye, it's see you later.
Love ya Wiffel always and forever,
Kelli

RIP Wiffel For forever in our hearts there you'll be. And for forever in our souls is where you'll live. We miss you. See you later.

Thank you for all the love you gave me, baby. I have never been loved as well as I have been by you. You've taught me what unconditional love is all about, and I am so glad that I knew it through you. Thank you for all the smiles you put on my face, and all the laughs you filled my heart with. Thank you for all the gentle bunny lick-kisses and the long bunny snuggles and the happy bunny dances and the many, many memories that I will keep with me forever and ever. Thank you for being my best friend, and know you'll always be my baby and my One True Love. I'll keep you in my heart for always.
Mommy and Nana love you. xOxOxOx

Wilbur, you are my right arm. I feel lost without you. You were there when I needed a shoulder to cry on. I miss seeing the sunshine in your eyes. You are always in my heart. I love you and miss you dearly. I'm sending a kiss and hug till we meet again

Linda

Wilbur...I can hardly believe it's been a year since we lost you...I cry every night for you.....I miss you so much.
I know I will never be able to replace you in my heart. And I can not bear to bring another pal into my house...Maybe someday...
Our Gardenia bloomed today--the one that bloomed the day we let you go..I know this is a sign that you are happy..
I love you my friend..my heart.. my pal
Rest in peace until we meet at the Rainbow Bridge.
Love you mommy

Belle will forever be in our hearts. Baby We will see on the other side of the bridge.

Mommy & Daddy

Love you and miss you puppy

Sue

Will was a plucky, 8 pound Maltese who always thought he was a German shepard. I had him since he was a puppy and he had been my best friend and companion for over 12 years. Somehow he was always able to communicate to me though his expressions, even across the language barrier. He knew only a few words: walk, sit, up, down, treat, shower, come, carrot, apple. But we knew what each other was thinking, nevertheless. His final illness was brief, and he was comfortable through it. He passed on quietly in his sleep. Now he runs with the wolves.

Huan Lee

William was so full of spirit and life. His brother, Timothy, and I, will never forget him.

Eric Legge

Patton stole our hearts from the day we saw him as a small chocolate lab. He ran after us as if to say, "Here I am, choose me." He ran right into our hearts to stay forever. As a young fellow he loved to sit on our deck and survey the woods that surround us as if to say, "This is my kingdom and I will be aware of all that happens." If you threw the ball to his wife Samantha, more than you did to him, he barked to set you straight. He loved to swim in the lake and in his pool, but if it were bath time, he would run and hide. As he grew old and arthritis set in, he looked at you as if to say, "I'm not giving in to this. Let's play!" He never lost his spirit, his spunk, his love of life. Though he succumb to cancer, he looked at us with his last breath as if to say, "Here I am. I know you chose me. I love you, loving me." He will be in our hearts forever. When we nuzzle into the soft warm fur of another baby, we will think of Patton. When we throw a ball, we will think of Patton. When we feel the warm breezes blow and see the sunset or a beautiful rainbow, we will know he is with us, as if to say, "I love you for choosing me and loving me. I will be waiting on you and Samantha at the Rainbow Bridge. But as for now, I know you understand, I must run and play and maybe eat a steak or two with all the others here. Your lifelong friend. I love you, Patton." and Patton, we love you.
Bebe and William

It was a cold Saturday in early April 1988 when two kittens arrived. I had waited in front of the building where I live and an animal advocate and ceaseless rescuer pulled up in her van. In a standard case were two tiny kittens, one black and white, a classic tuxedo cat and the other a Tiger/Tabby of silver, gold and white. They were perfection!

My cat Clayton and I had just tragically lost his sister Maggie. Not wanting him to be alone I found these kittens to take into our home. It didn't take Clayton long at all before he took them into his heart. Willie in particular was devoted to Clayton. I still remember the day .....he had only been here maybe one or two days when he looked up at Clayton with an expression so full of love and devotion. He never lost that look.

Willie was a cat with his own agenda. Many felt he wasn't all that warm and I guess it wasn't to most people. Sometimes, even me but there was always an overabundance of love for Clayton. Often Clayton would have just too much of Willie's devotion but more often than not he gave in and enjoyed it.

Willie mellowed a bit over the years but always remained a nervous kind of guy. He became part of his charm and he was a beautiful cat. I knew how much he loved me and soon he knew it too.

In September 2001 I noticed Willie had lost weight. He was to go to the vet on September 11th for a check up. Our vet at the time was in Greenwich Village in NYC where we all live. The appointment was canceled. The following week we went and Willie was diagnosed with kidney disease. He seemed to be doing ok but the second week of October took a turn for the worse. He was taken to the vet on a Tuesday and we were told he could go home and so we did. By the end of the week however it was apparent that Willie was a very sick cat and after a distressing Friday night in which my Sweet William suffered too much but with great courage, we went on Saturday to the vet.

It was a beautiful fall day in New York City. Many people were suffering the pain and loss of September 11 which was just one month before, so it would seem the loss of one little cat might be insignificant. It wasn't.

We, Clayton, MacDuff and Lola loved our Sweetest William and grieved to lose him too soon and so very quickly.

Now Clayton, MacDuff and Lola have joined him. Their hearts together again and only mine remains behind.

I love you dear, Sweetest William, my Willie. Clayton is with you now. So I know how very happy that makes you. I know you will take good care of each other and Lola and MacDuff too. I will love you forever.

Susan

There was never anyone so wonderful and loving and such a best friend as Willie was to us. He will be missed to the ends of time. No words will ever be able to express these feelings. Goodbye our dear beloved Willie. We will miss you so.

Steve/Lori Kaufman

My mother lost her beloved Beagle, Willie, today.....He was a great watch dog...would even bark at blowing leaves in his younger days. Not a hunting dog, mind you, just a family pet that thought he was a baby. Over the last several days, his breathe was growing labored, and he finally pasted away under my mothers favorite Lilac bush this morning. His suffering has pasted, and my mom's has just begun. We will miss you greatly WillieDog

You've given so much love and companionship, devotion and loyalty to our hearts.
The emptiness is ever present. I will never think, Good Bye. "Sleep well with only happy thoughts", my little Pee-Wee, until we meet together again.

For 8 years Willie, you gave to me of yourself, your love, devotion and companionship which we shared together. The memories that you left me with will keep you alive in my heart . I will always miss you, my Willie.

"mama" Mary

Willie had a sparkle in his eyes everytime we met. He found immense joy everytime a family member came to visit. He brought joy to Mary and now sadness as he had to say goodbye to her. He will be sadly missed by the whole family but we all know he has now crossed the "Rainbow Bridge" an is safe, healthy again and enjoying his new friends.

Shirley & Dave

Dear Sweet Willie, I miss you so much. You were and always will be my best friend. Thank you so much for all of the joy you gave me. I will miss you every minute of every day until we meet again.

- Mommy (Wendy)

Though my grief is overbearing at this time, I know that my beloved Willie is no longer in pain. I know that the right decision was made to euthanize my dear, sweet friend.

I pray that there is a Rainbow Bridge. I pray that my Willie is free of pain and running like a puppy again. I pray that we will meet again for I can not bear never seeing her smiling face again or seeing her wagging tail.

To my beloved Willie, thank-you for being a most wonderful companion and friend. You've truly enriched my life. If only I could possess your qualities of unconditional love and loyalty, for I would be a better person. However, I am a better person for having had you in my life.

Thank you for choosing us when you adopted us. I will remember you always and there will always be a spot in my heart which is reserved for you.

We love you Willie,
Your family, Betty, John, Tom, Jerry & Bart

Willow was so loud in the mornings, but I loved him SO much. He was such a smart bird. I thought he was going to be with me when I went to college and got married and had kids, but his death was very sudden and unexpected. Archie is gonna be lonesome with out you, Willow. I love you.

I found her when she was barely six weeks old. I had my first Job at McDonalds, and one day they came and told me that there was a cat outside and they wanted me to go out and throw it off the premises. And there she was, so tiny, eating french fries some kids had given her. I called my mom to come and pick her up, and she became one of the family.
This afternoon, fourteen years later, my parents are taking her to the vet because of ARF. I wish I could be there to say goodbye; I hope God knows how much she meant to my life and treats her like the sister she was to me.
I LOVE YOU, WILLOW. The tears can't say nearly enough.

Sharita Webb

I fell in love with you the moment I met you . You were the most beautiful, loving, goofy guy. You always cheered me up with your hugs and antics. There is not another one like you anywhere, you were one of a kind. The day we had to let you go, it rained steady and all I could think was even the Heavens are crying. Afterward there was a huge Rainbow, I'm sure it was you saying "Hello down there!" We miss you Willy.

To Willy:
It's been more than three years now since I lost you, (way to soon), but I still think of you often my sweet buddy. I know you're in a special place where you have many "friends."
Thanks for all the love you gave me while you were here and sending Gracie my way when it was time. No one could replace you, but she has filled the empty space at home and makes me smile (so does Katie) every day.
I'll always love you buddy.

Eileen Connelly

You came into my life without planning when I found you in a parking lot next to a busy freeway and you left my life just as mysteriously. I will miss you little yellow Wilson.

Tracey & Dan Bockmann

Mommy misses her sweet baby boy. I think of you every day and it makes me smile as you always did. The day you left me was one of the saddest days of my life but at least I know your not in pain anymore. You were my angel here on earth and now your a true angel in heaven waiting to greet me when I arrive to be with you again. Mommy loves you baby and I will never forget you!

Wimberleigh's time with us was short but her presence brought great joy and comfort to our family.

Carla Burdette

Pace died suddenly Wednesday evening as a result of a ruptured liver. I'm not sure how or when this accident happened but he died within hours. He had been outside playing with his friends but I didn't notice anything unusual although Aussies love to rough and tumble.

Sally

I would like to thank my beloved cat Winger for all of his faithful years of being my guardian angel! He was a special cat, who loved only me, and was quite protective of his human mother. He will live forever in my heart & soul. I have learned many life's lessons from this special kitty. May his spirit stay with me until the day comes when I can join him again. God bless my baby!

Cindy Bates

We only had you for a little while, but you were such a sweet cat! I can't believe I killed you the one time I sat down in the recliner before making sure where you were! Precious darling, I am so sorry!

Kristine Elliott

Young baby, a rate illness took your life. Go to your friends at the Rainbow Bridge. Give our love to all our losses whom are there waiting for us one day.

Laurie Halliday

My angle in heaven, I will love you till my life is though. Knowing you for 18 years was a blessing. My golden palomino horse, who god sent down here on earth to be with me. You were my sunshine, my days, my life. I will never forget you, till my life is over an we meet again, nite nite angel.

Wanda Lambert

Always in our hearts

Jennifer Morton and Kroeker Family

To Winnie, a sweet lab mix who loved to place her paw on everyone, who always had a smile on her face, and who loved her parents and her lifelong canine buddy, Millie. You will be missed, gentle friend.

Chris and Kelle Johns-Krull

Winnie was a very special girl. She was my first dog. She was such a beautiful dog, loving and sweet. She liked to drape herself with anything that was hanging - a skirt, a tablecloth, a bedspread. We used to say that Winnie had "her dress on". She loved to ride in the car and to have baths outside with the hose. She loved her treats and would beg for them enthusiastically. She was always waiting for me when I came home, with a little whimper and trying to "pat me" with her paw. I will miss her head toss and her bossiness. I love you, Winnie.

Marian Hall

Winnie my little girl. I will miss you forever but we will meet again at Rainbow Bridge my little girl!!!!

Danielle

Winnie,

You graced us with your presence with your brief but full time here on Earth. We love you so much and want you to understand how difficult it was for me to make the decision to send you on to a better place.

Nicky now walks around the house meowing while trying to find you. He misses the cuddling you used to provide him with. Please save a spot for him when it's his time to join you.

I miss you so much, Sweetie.
I love you.
Daddy.

Thank you my sweet girl for all that you were. Always loyal and always there for me. You loved me when I was worthy of you and when I was not. I have no doubt you'll greet me when I too cross over.

Please have your dog checked for heart disease.

Ruth

we as all loved our doggie, she came down with a debilitating brain tumor and the vet said it was time, thanks to friends they took her to the vet and stayed with her for it would be much to hard for us. So with many thanks to Kevin and Nancy Fredrickkson. Winnie we will see you at the rainbow bridge.

Scott Edward Rollins

Winona was the bane of my existence and the love of my life.
I love her in a place where there's no space or time.
I will treasure forever the lessons and secrets she taught me. Thank you Nony.

Gail Ross

My dear sweet boy Winston,
I am going to miss you so much. You were such a wonderful ol' tomcat. You weren't with us long enough, only 4 years. But, I am thankful that you were with me at all. I rescued you from an alley and you were immediately diagnosed FIV . You weren't expected to live long, but you lived a healthy life for those 4 years. I never believed you had the disease, but it finally got the best of you. I knew it was time for you to join Jack and Penny at Rainbow Bridge when you stopped eating and were having a hard time walking. It was such a difficult decision, but I couldn't let you suffer, I had to set your little spirit free. Wait for me at Rainbow Bridge Winnie, for I will join you some day. And promise me you won't torment poor Jack and Penny while you're up there! Oh how you loved tormenting the dogs...and it worked...they stayed out of your way! I love you Winnie, and I always will.

Love,
Your Mommy

I will miss my Winston very much. I will miss him looking out the window when I leave and greeting me when I arrive. I will miss not being able to bring him home an extra cheeseburger from McDonald's and him scrounging for my leftovers. I will miss his slobber and licks. I miss the days with him already. My mom will miss him following her everywhere. He would wake her up ever morning with a nudge and a lick. She misses his walks with him ever morning and evening. We will never have a dog quite as special as Winnie Dog. We love and miss you Winston. Hope to see you again, so we can walk together on the Rainbow Bridge.

Janel & Joanne Tyler

Winston, We set up the Christmas tree today, without you grabbing the bulbs, jumping in the boxes, or just getting in the way as you always did. It was so sad without you! This is going to be the worst holiday we have ever spent. You were the light in our lives and we will never forget you. I loved coming home seeing you laying around, following us around the house, playing on the floor, or just watching TV with us. The hourly visits when you would walk by us just to let us know you were around was the highlight of our nights. I know you didn't like being picked up but we really liked petting you and making you feel loved. I often wondered if you knew just how much we loved you! I'm sorry we didn't let you outside much except for the backyard. I know you wanted to run free outside and were always mad at us when we picked you up to bring you back in sight and never allowed you to go more than a house over, but this was because we didn't want you to get lost or hurt by someone. We knew that if something ever happened to you, we could never forgive ourselves and the thought of something happening to you would have been unbearable! Last week, we found out just how awful it is without you! Ellen and I have been miserable and everytime we walk around the house, something reminds us of you. I don't even know how you got sick Winston! I know you were 15 years old and not as active as you used to be but you seemed healthy when I went out of town. I am so sorry you had to be put to sleep. The vet said you could hardly breathe and there was no other way to stop your pain. Ellen made the decision that I would have made Winston, there was no other way. If the vet could have saved you, I would have spent any amount of money to bring you home healthy but we couldn't leave you in such terrible pain. This was a very hard decision and Ellen has been crying for days because of it. I hope that wherever you are that you are happy and you know that we will never forget you. You were more than our cat, you were a member of our family! We love you Winston!

God, please take care of Winston for us.
Sincerely, Tom and Ellen

My precious 5 month old kitten's life was cruelly cut short due to a fatal disease called FIP. During the 3 months that I was fortunate enough to be his mom, he filled my life with such happiness and joy. Although he was a sick kitten, he never showed it. He didn't deserve to die and I'm truly heartbroken. The precious memories will remain in my mind and heart forever. You are gone my precious Winston, but not forgotten.

Marlene Carlson

My Good Boy by Terri Perkins

Oh my precious furry friend
How I loved you til the end
Now memories carry me on
Of days gone by and full of fun
Your expressive brown eyes and button nose
Those perked little ears~you struck quite the pose
You loved your treats and to romp and play
Going bye bye in the car made your day
You had a grand time guarding the pool
or even chasing Dad's gardening tool
I loved you your entire life
and tried to comfort you during
your last moment of strife
You brought me so much joy
You'll always be Mommy's good boy.

Winston,
It has only been 5 months since your brother Raleigh crossed the Rainbow Bridge. Maybe it was the loss in your heart that weakened the rest of your precious body. Tonight is the first night in 13 years in our home that there is an empty doggie bed. I miss both of you very much. I pray that as you crossed Rainbow Bridge tonight that you and Raleigh had a joyous reunion and you can be young and healthy and play together again.

June Gibson

Winston--You were the best! Up until your last day, you remained loving, loyal and upbeat. Because you chose not to complain, we had no idea how sick you were. I only wish we knew! We miss you and I think about you all day long-- every time I see a tennis ball, every time the kids are in the yard, every time we hear thunder and every night as I go to bed. I now know you must have been in great pain, and I have to believe that there is a place outside of this world where great dogs like you are able to run and play pain-free. We will always know you were the best dog any family could have!

Love, Mommy

You were strong and loved. I will miss you more than words can ever express. Stay strong little buddy I will come for you some day!!!

Lisa Lovasco

Tonight a member of our family left the others in his wake. Our beloved Winston (aka "Moose") passed away April 1, 2002, at approximately 5:00 p.m. in the bedroom of his Mommy & Daddy, with them both at his side, and his little brother Sidney standing guard over him. He fought as hard against cancer as he did against the occasional unfortunate dog that incurred his considerable wrath, but the fight robbed him of his strength and we knew that we had to find the strength ourselves to help him let go. We pity those who would ever say that we lost "just a dog" because we know what a unique and beautiful soul has passed through our lives and left an indelible mark on our own souls...making them better for him having been in our world. The wisdom and love that could be found by staring into those amazing amber eyes was beyond measure and compare; we were blessed to have been the recipients of his loyal and loving gaze. After he was gone, we took Sid to the beach, to one of "the four of us' " favorite spots. Sid dug a hole and we buried his frisbee to honor "Da' Moose" and we sat and stared at the first star to rise, hoping that it symbolized Winston looking down at us and being at peace. Just as night began to fall, a solitary pelican (our favorite bird, and one that has great meaning to us) flew directly over us, and then flew directly towards our MOST SPECIAL spot to which we took the boys by car and boat many times over the years. We feel in our hearts that Winston was being escorted to the Rainbow Bridge by that pelican guide. This has been the most painful day of our lives, but we would gladly endure it for even a minutes worth of the memories that we are now left to treasure.

Shea & Sherry

Winston ... our dear Winston would always light up a room, turned heads, warmed hearts. He had enough courage and love for a million people. He left us with many gifts and this world is a better place because he was here!
He will be in our hearts forever. Rest in peace little one, until we meet again.

Bonnie - Margaret

I always knew that I loved you Winston, but it wasn't until you had to leave that I realized just how deep my love for you was, and always will be. I am sleeping with your sweater and your little bear close to my face, because I can smell you. I am thinking of you all the time and worrying about what you are doing now. I love you Winston, and remember that you are the bravest little dog that ever lived.

Gillian Smith

He was named Winston Churchill. Winnie, one of the names I called him, was born in a Humane Society, May 30th, 1990. Oddly enough my young daughter and I did some volunteer work their a couple hours a week at the same time Winnie was born. I know that their is a higher power for all who believe! If they don't read on...June of 1990 my daughter and I could no longer volunteer at the Shelter, we would no longer see the litter of kittens, (Winston), he wasn't named at that time. He was adopted 01/08/91 by an Sr. citizen who became ill and bedridden, so Winston was around Nurses a lot. Sadly his owner passed and her family returned him to the Shelter on 04/13/93. December '93, our Miss Kitty passed. My Stepson went out to get me a cat for my Christmas present. After a long day of searching Mark saw our local Humane Society was having adoptions at a pet supply store. Winston was there, and yes Mark chose him. The Shelter was packing up and they were only there for one day. Mark couldn't remember his name, he was a gray cat with stripes, he thought, but he used his paws to get his attention. The Shelter was closed on Monday's, so Tuesday my 2 kid's and I went their to get that cat!! We spent over 2 hours looking for him. We sat on the floor and played with the cat's and no one really seemed right. We went back the next day and again after 2 more hours we just couldn't find the cat or the cat find us. We were almost to the door when a cat in a cage on the top shelf put his paw's thru the bars and touched my head..as if to say HEY LOOK AT ME!! I asked about him. "This is Winston Churchill." He had big beautiful green eye's. His name was so odd and I was told that if you look at his eye's "he has the look of the weight of the world on his shoulder's, so serious, like Winston Churchill." This beautiful dark gray tiger with big green eye's chose us. We now had our new family member named Winston. On December 15,1993 Winston Churchill became a loving family member of the Walter house. At home waiting for him, Sweetie a little 11yr old tuxedo cat, and Tanker, a 135lb Rottweiler, (who doesn't know he's a dog). Winnie and Tanker were like old pals. Winnie never saw a dog before, Winnie just knew he was safe. Tanker and Winnie would play, picture this..Winnie under our glass end table playing with Tanker. Tanker will roll over on his back, by now Tanker's head is under the glass table. Winnie has him now and runs from under the table and Tanker try's to stand up. After Tanker hit's his head, Winnie would run by and tease him again. They would also play tag. Tanker really misses his buddy. Cali and Molly, his feline sister's are going around looking for Winn-Winn. They don't understand. It hasn't been 1 week, 5 long day's without my Pooh. Just give me 1 more day. He wasn't going to crossover. Winnie was to young. I know we were lucky to have had him. Pooh brought me such joy and companionship to all of us. I had so many names for Winston. We rarely called him by his real name. Anyone who saw him loved him. I was always asked his name..his eye's always were the first thing people saw, he would stare at you and I guess that caught people off their guard. Winnie really connected with human's. Winnie, Pooh-Pooh, Winn-Winn, I had so many names for him. Winnie was born unwanted, then someone hopefully loved him for a while, then he was unwanted again. My Pooh gave like there was no tomorrow. His first owner was sick and in bed, she had nurse's take care of her until the end and Winnie was there for her. Then his second owner-me, ended up being sick-having nurse's, a lot. From time to time I was in bed for a while. Pooh was always there with me. All my nurse's have fallen in love with him. Winnie wasn't only a very loved family member, but he was my very best friend. Laying in bed can get boring fast, even when you are sick, Winn-Winn would look at me with those big green eye's and I could tell he was trying to take away the pain. That was his place here on this earth..he gave too much or maybe I took to much. The saddest part is my Winnie lost his sight the last week of his life. Those big beautiful green eye's could no longer help you. Pooh wasn't 12 yrs old until May 30th. To young, but maybe he gave all he could all his life and this was to go..so fast. Gone in two weeks. We did all we could do for him. Our Vet tried everything, all his test were normal-nothing to treat, nothing to do for him. My dear Winnie, you were not in pain. The morning of April 24, 2002, you were in my lap purring. I was sitting in bed, I had fed you and then it was time to comb you, (you loved to be combed) then an hour later you wanted to leave this world behind, a world I wanted so selfishly to keep you in. I held you so tight and told you were going to be O.K. I told you of all the times you were there for me and my family and that we loved you so very much and that those big green eye's can now take a rest. I hope you rest for a while, my Pooh, somehow I know those big green eye's are looking out for me. I will forever miss my Pooh-Pooh. Love from Momma Dawn, Daddy Jeff, brother Tanker, sister's Molly and Cali

To our very special Winnie-pooh. We miss you more than words can say. Our lives will not be the same with out you here. The other night I was looking up in the sky and was talking to you and I asked for a sign that you were alright, a shooting star, a breeze - anything. Right in front of me went a shooting star, I didn't even have to look around to see it, it was amazing. I was so emotional because in my heart I knew that God was telling me that you were with him in Heaven, it was such a comfort. We love you and miss you!

Lesa, Joey, Noah, Carly, Cleo

To my Winston: I miss you so much. There is not a day that goes by that I don't get tears in my eyes thinking about you. I asked God for a sign that you were ok and you know what happened? He sent me a shooting star right in front of my eyes, I didn't even have to look for it. I know that we will see you again, and I will get to have your soft cheek press against my face. We love and miss you.

Mommy and Daddy and Noah-Carly and Cleo

I want to recognize a very special cat. She was my friend from the time she was really even too young to have been away from her Mother. She died suddenly- way before her time. She was affectionate, intelligent and loving to all other animals and people. She is truly missed by my husband and I, her feline brother and her canine brother and sister. We will never forget her. We love and miss you Winnie.

Kim Johnson

Winthrop, you were the most special dog in our lives! You are totally irreplaceable, and we will miss you forever! We hope the pain is gone and that you've met up with all your family and friends again. Think of us once in a while, because we will think of you all the time! We hope to see you again!

We love you.

Love,

Mommy, Daddy, Jacob, Bailey, & Rachel

Wires you were special to me. No one else understood you, but I always said, " You were a dog, only a mother could love!" I hope you roam the land like I knew you always wanted to do, and that you are now happy and at peace. I will always remember your greeting kisses when I came home! I will never forget you, and I'll look forward to the day, when we meet again to hear that loud bark of yours. I'll know that bark anywhere! Go play with Jason, he'll love as I did! Goodbye for now, I'll see you later friend......Love ya, Mom.

A loving cat who saved his little owners life and refused to give up until the day after that little owners birthday. sadly missed but never forgotten.

Bell and The Family

Bo was a wonderful brindle Greyhound, a retired racer, who had lived with us for six years. He died running as he had always loved to do in or back yard.

Sue and Jim Mooney

Wolf was my best friend. He was smart and he was always there for me. I got him when I was still a teenager and we remained best friends until his death 13 years later. He was a good dog. I will always love him.

Theresa Gebhart

My dog Wolfie was everything to me. I miss him so much. He died on Tuesday after being so sick from cancer ...He got sick at Christmas time this year...

I was not ready to lose him. He was only 9 yrs old...He and I were together every day right from the time I brought him home at age 8 weeks. He was my best friend.. I just hope that he is ok where he is now. I want him to be happy. I will miss him forever..

Jane Lasko

Woody Baby--I'm soo sorry. You were a loved cat. We all loved you so much. You are missed. We feel like we are all having a nightmare. You were hit by a car. A nice neighbor lady found you and wrapped you up and brought you home to us. At least you will be laid to rest at home. Sherman misses you. He is just laying around the house moping. He sniffed your body and knows you are gone. Ashleigh misses you ...you were her baby kitty. I'm so sorry woody...I love you.

Dawn Risas

Oh Woody, how you brought love into our hearts. Never in a million years did we dream we would have such a loyal friend and companion. Even up to your death, you were strong and brave, and for that, we honor you. Woody, I hope the lush green grass at the rainbow bridge will hold you over until I get there someday little buddy!

We Love You SOOO Much!

Tracy K

Woody I loved you from the we brought you home. You had so much love to give. You made my day's so much brighter.
I love you so much and I miss you very much. But I know some day we will be together again. I know you are with God and he is taking care of you and you are flying free the you should be. I love you Woody.

Mommy

We hate to see you go but we had to because we just can't bear to see you in pain. Though we will miss the way you brightened many of our days, we're so glad and thankful you came into our lives. We're comforted knowing that someday, we will see you again.

The Stewarts

Thank you for the love you gave the family. We will miss you terribly. You are finally with Butter. Until we meet at Rainbow Bridge.
Love, Estelle.

Little Woolly,

Today I let you go, but you will always be in my heart. Snickers and I will never forget you. I hope you left this life knowing you were loved and cherished, and how special you were. I'll treasure our good times. They were many. Be at peace now.

Mom

Woolly, I miss you so much and I think about you every day, Your son, Shooter, is now 2 years old and is growing up to be a wonderful boy. He looks just like you and sometimes I think that you are there in front of me. Woolly, I know you are doing well now and you no longer have to worry about getting more chemotherapy. You are an exceptional dog and the most loving companion. I love you with all my heart. I can't believe it has been a year since you went to Rainbow Bridge - I can't wait to see you again, my boy. All my love, Heidi

Worcester was only 13 months when he died. He was the most friendly,. furry, demanding, and lovable boy who ever came into my life, and I shall miss him until the day we meet again at the Rainbow Bridge

Julie

Hey "Worfie"! [our little "lamb", who lost his way.] It's been one year since we've seen your little face. The pain we feel from losing you, is no less now, than it was then. There is a big void in all of our hearts. All of us ,miss you more than anyone could ever imagine! Can't wait to see you and hug and kiss you again!
We know you'll be waiting for us at "The Rainbow Bridge".
Be at rest, Our Little Angel
We Love You, XOXOXO
Mommy, Daddy, Billy, Borris, & Bones

To my beloved cat,

I will miss you and think of you every day. I know the bridge is beautiful and that you are happy. See you there!!!

Debbie Payne

I loved you more than anything else, I didn't want you to go, you were my love, my happiness and you still are, even though your gone. I could tell you were in pain, that you wanted to die, and then I began to deny. I denied that you weren't going to be laying at the top of the stairs waiting for me to come home from school, I denied that you weren't going to be there to feed treats to or to feed you dinner at 5. You always protected me... comforted me... just plain loved me. I hope you will have someone to play with at Rainbow Bridge.... but whatever you do.. don't forget about me and Tara and Dad and Mom (and Puppy cuzin!! I LOVE YOU SO MUCH WRIGLEY *calli*

My best friend as well as my comfort. You gave me eight wonderful years which I will never forget. Not a day passes that I don't think about you. I love and miss you so much. You will always be my boy Wrigley.

Wrinkles was the smartest dog on earth. He knew what you were going to do even before you did. He was a protector.. and a little aggressive.. but he meant well. He knew a dog lover when he met them. He escaped death many times.. once when he had a heat stroke, again with intestinal cancer, but he was a fighter! It was kidney disease that finally got him. He fought it bravely.. but when he 70 pounds of muscle wasted away to 43 pounds.. and he couldn't even eat the treats he loved.. it was time to stop his suffering. It was the hardest thing I ever did in my life!! And I pray it was the right thing. I just want him to know that I love him with all my heart. I gave him I.V.'s every night at home.. and I would do anything to help him. But he was tired of needles. I will miss you forever my little wrinkly-do. Mommy

Wyatt,

I loved you so much... you were my buddy if anyone was. I'm sorry you had to be laid to rest, and my heart longs to see you again. We will be by each others side one sweet day.

Wuv you Wyat Earp :)

During the short 8 months that Wylie was a part of the Garner family, the story of Wylie's courage spread to Maltese fanciers throughout the nation and as far away as Australia and England. When Wylie's medical needs required an oxygen tent, a simple request to buy or borrow a used oxygen regulator ballooned into donations from around the country (Virginia, Nevada, California, Missouri, Mississippi, New Jersey, Florida, Arizona, Pennsylvania, Georgia and Massachusetts) coming in the mail addressed to Mr. Wylie Garner. Wylie would have his own fully equipped oxygen tent! A family from California with a Maltese named "Radar" sent Wylie his very own tiny Harley Motorcycle with a personalized license plate that read "California Wylie". He received homemade treats and pretty hair bows.

Rescued from a Kill Shelter in Wylie Texas in September 2001 Wylie was loved and cherished as if he were a king. And to our family he was a brave king.

"I live among God's creatures now
In the heavens of your mind.
So do not grieve for me my friend,
As I am with my kind."

My heart, my love, my conscience, my hope, you drew your last breath while I sat by an marveled that you ever were so magnificent, so cool, so startlingly beautiful. I do not know how to miss you.

Charlotte Hurd

This was my perfect dog. I never did anything that she didn't follow along behind and try to help. She taught herself to pickup laundry I dropped. She found my lost earring and my lost watch and brought them to me. She was always listening to me and seemed to respond to everything that was said. She tried to comfort me when I was sad, and rejoiced when I was happy. She was a beautiful dog, but more than that, she was beautiful in her soul. I know she went to Heaven but she will live forever in my heart.
