Year 2004 Tributes

Kurama thru Kymo

Kaala, you were the most gentle and stoic friend I've ever had.
You died as you lived... on your own terms.
I'll meet you, Shannon, Meeko and Daisy at the Bridge.
I'll miss you 'til then.
Stay sweet, my little girl.

Mike Keys

Kacey, your mommy loves and misses you. I will never forget you. Thank you coming into my life and being my dog.

Maria

We lost our dog, Kacy, this weekend. She died around 2 a.m. Sunday at our vet's. She was surrounded by those who loved her, including the little girls (now young women) who picked her out and made her name part of theirs. Although this event has taken some of the joy of the season, we feel privileged to have had such a wonderful companion whose love and wacky ways have been a part of our lives for over 12 years. We will miss her.

The Pense Family

Kadi we will miss your sweet face and your gentle spirit but you will always be with us in our hearts.
Please know we did all we could to heal you, but apparently God needed another little angel.
Kay-Kay, we miss you terribly and so do your sisters.
I know we will see you again someday, but until then know we love you and think of you daily. Love you sweetie! Momma, Daddy, Lucy & your "baby" Maggie

I miss you so much! You were my best friend, my favorite companion...my sister. You'll never know how much you meant to me, Mama, Daddy, and Chelsey, and you'll never know what a huge loss our family feels. I'll miss you everyday!! Every time I get ice out of the freezer, pop popcorn, feed Buffy cheese, cook dinner, or pull in the driveway, I'll miss you. Every little thing reminds me of your sweet, happy, smiling face. Rest assured you'll never be forgotten, not by any of us. You were and will always be a part of our family! I Love You Forever!!

Loryn Edmonds

Kadie you gave it your all and you will be sadly missed. I know you are in a better place and you hurt no more.
I love you dearly.

Callie

Kaethe, sweetie, I'm so sorry the last week of your short life was so scary & hectic. I'd so wanted to get you & your sister rehab'd and adopted. At least you don't have to be afraid anymore. I miss your sweet little face...and so does your sister. Rest well, my dear. You've earned it.

Michele Wisneski

Kahlua was a stray and came into my life 18 years ago. She and Spock (male cat, also 18, passed 5/26/03) lived most of their lives together. She managed to live a year and 13 days past his crossing. Words can not express the bond we have. She has joined my family members on the other side and I know someday I will see her and all my sweet animals again. Thank you Kahlua for giving me 18 years of love and support. God bless you. I feel priveledged to have been touched by such a gentle soul. You helped me through 18 years and your gentle purr was a constant comfort. Now you are my angel above.........

Marie Ganz

Our dog was the best dog you could ask for. Most people think of Rotweillers as cruel & mean dogs, our dog didn't have a mean bone in his body.
We found out on 2/27/04 that he had bone cancer, & right up to the last minute he was put to sleep you wouldn't have known he was in pain. He was our best friend and companion and we miss him so much.

Heath & Brenda Kenyon

Kahn you passed to Rainbow Bridge just four days after your "sister" Janet. I hope you have met up with your pal Sam who brought you home in the first place and then continued to mother you until he passed on. I can just imagine that Sam was waiting for you and I bet by now he would have given you a good wash all over holding you down with those big paws of his. Rest in Peace my little mate. Diana Gokalp

Kahn Bradford was a wonderful pet and a member of our family. Kahn's life was taking when hit by a car. Kahn was a black nufie, with a white patch on his chest. He was a show dog. But that's not the reason our entire family and total strangers loved Kahn. Kahn was a very friendly dog, full of life. Full of energy, and loved to run on walk's together. Kahn was a life saving dog. Kahn loved to swim in a nearby pond. When out in the park Kahn loved to go swimming in the river. Along with swimming, our dog loved to play "Where's Kahn?". We would cover his face with a towel, and say "Where's Kahn?". He would shake the towel off and run towards us, as fast as he could run with the towel in his mouth. Kahn liked to play tug of war also with the towel. Kahn was a very obedient puppy. At age 4, Kahn had learned alot. He was very intelligent. Kahn was such a loving puppy, and loved us and people so much that he never liked being alone for very long periods of time. My son and I would say to Kahn when going to school, "Mommie will be right back". "We will go for a walk when I get back.", and he would be so excited. When I arrived back home he was waiting and ready for our walk together. Kahn, was not only my walking BUDDY but my friend for life. Kahn died as he lived, doing what he loved most. Playing, running, swimming and peacefully left this earth. Kahn, you are missed and loved dearly and were so special to us all. Carrie, Louis, Kristin, William, Roy and most of all your walking buddy (mommie)

Kaiser my beloved German Shepard was the most loving animal that I have ever known. For 13 years he was my faithful companion. He was totally trustworthy and would never run away except to play hide and seek when he was feeling mischievous. He was regal and majestic and everyone who came in contact with him knew he was special. His love was unconditional. His smile will be in my heart forever.

Tony "jay" Formicola

We'll miss you forever buddy.
Only god know why you were here one minute and he took you the next.
Rest in peace with your sister and pap...and keep them company till one day we are united again.
Your smiling and sneezing will be remembered forever.
We love and miss you!!

Sue & Troy Kislak

Kaitlyn was a big brown puppy that loved her family will all her heart.
We will miss her and our hearts are filled with all the wonderful memories she gave us.

Trish, Matt, Megan & Logan

I loved you Kal. You were my best friend in good and bad. I'm sorry you had to go but I know you will now always have green pastures and breath easier. Until we ride again.

Elissa

On 1/17/04 we lost our precious "Kaley girl". She was such a sweet and special kitty. We truly believe she was a furry angel that God sent to bring joy to our lives. Though she came to us at age 9, it's as if she's always been a part of our family. She was so courageous..taking the needle poking and all the other medical interventions without a whimper. Her doctor called her "the best patient anyone could hope to have." We and her brother, Dalton, miss her terribly, but we comfort ourselves with the knowledge that she is now with punky and sodie, and she knows no pain...... Please pray for our dear little girl. She can never be replaced! We'll be together again one day, Kaley......just be watching for us crossing over that bridge!

Jill Cartledge & Linda Stenger

My little girl - after 17 years together, a piece of my heart is with you forever.

Joy Ostaffe

KALINKA

She was only 5 years and 10 months old. I still have a two dogs and one cat, and we all very miss for her. She left very empty space in ours life’s and very deep emotional hole. I was a digging a grave for her in my garden (4f deep) and I know - she it is between ours. I feel her, I dream her and on the corner of my eyes one time I se her! Also I was a took a photograph of her when she was put to the grave and on the photo it is her spirit/ghost. I was a sent this photograph for analyses to one photographic magazine.

I pray for good and ask my family (which lived on the other site) to get her between them and to take care taken for her (on the other site). I love to know something about the life after life for dogs and I like to speak for her, but I don't know haw?

Maria Mucharska

Kallie- you were the only bird catching Scotty, your fraps were legendary and your heart was so large it was big enough for two dogs - your companion Mackenzie misses you very much as do your Mom and Dad - please wait for us at the bridge we will bring your toys

Fred and Linda Ampel

Kallie, Our hearts are so broken and empty without you. There are no words to express how we feel, and how much we miss you. We're so grateful you held on until we could comfort you and let you know it was okay for you to go to sleep, that you needed your rest. The smile you always had on your face will always be in our hearts! We can't begin to express the joy you brought to our lives. The wonderful memories we have of you, brings us such sadness now, but are cherished memories that we'll forever treasure. We love you so much....please rest and be at peace until we're able to see you again. We love you, mom and dad

She was our bodhisattva of loving and loyalty without reservation.

Ben & Judy

I love you and will always miss you. I know you are in a better place, and you are no longer in pain. I will see you again.

All my love.

Misty Probst

My little Kanga, who was the best friend I have ever had and my only family.

Catherine French

Our beautiful girl, who we miss on a daily basis.
So hard not to have you present in our lives.

C.E. Wilkinson

I miss your warm, gentle, caring nature. You will live forever in my heart. No future cat I may own will ever take your place. I have your ashes and whiskers and we will be reunited as we cross the "Rainbow Bridge" together. I still grieve for you and always will, my one and only, my only one. I consider myself to be the lucky owner with whom you shared your twenty-and-a-half year life.

Emily L. Nunzio

I understand that you have gone
To a better place
A brighter dawn

The time we shared
The laughter, the tears
And memories my friend
I will always hold dear

I could never forget you,
Nor will I try
But the time has come
For me to say goodbye

I will miss you my friend
More than you'll know
But I can proudly tell you
That I loved you so

Tomorrow is a new day,
A fresh new start
You'll be in the arms of the angels,
But you'll live on in my heart!

Karla, I loved you so much and will miss you forever. You will always be in my heart even though you are not here. I will never forget you.

KarmaKitty never had a chance to grow up. We adopted him on april 17 at our local animal shelter. He was so tiny & frail and only 1 month old. They neutered him already & gave him shots, and he was way too young to go thru that and they never should have done that so soon. He was taken from his mommy way too early, and I think with the stress of the surgery, shots and being away from his mom and family, everything combined killed him. :*( He wouldn't eat but did drink a tiny amount of water. He was so tiny, and we only had him a week, but he was sickly & timid for the short time he was with us. He seemed fine for about a day and that's about it. Last night at midnight my husband checked on him and he was fine. This morning he checked and told me the kitten looked dead. I woke up and sure enough, the poor little tiny one was gone. :*( He wasn't with us very long, but he has a special place in my heart and I will always love and miss him. :*( I hope he is with my other furkids playing on the rainbow bridge and waiting til we meet again.

Amy & Dave Makowski

I'm so sorry I wasn't with you when you passed away Karmel. We tried so hard to save you. I keep hoping you will visit me in my dreams, but haven't seen you yet. I hope one day you will be able to forgive me, and that when I pass you will reunite with me. I love you and miss you Karmel.

Jodi

Kasey was the most remarkable, wonderful dog we have ever had! We never had a lonely day as long as we had him. He was so smart and he loved everybody. I will never forget him and I will miss him as long as I live! It was so hard to let him go but it was time! He fought so hard to stay with us and we didn't want him to suffer. I know he is in a special place because he was so special and so loved! We will miss you always. Dee and John

Dear Kasey, my baby who was the biggest part of my life for 11 & 1/2 years.
I cherish those years and miss you very much.

Laura

Kasey, you truly earned the middle name of Sunshine with your warm and sunny disposition. You brought so much joy and love to everyone you met. You stayed extra time to make sure I was all right when you were in such pain. Thank you. You gave me such unconditional love and devotion. I will never forget you my sweet prince. Be happy. I'll see you one day at the Rainbow Bridge. Lots of love from your mom.

Kasha you were the light of our lives and we've never been the same since you left us. We haven't been able to love another pet since you've been gone. You were the most special dog in the whole world. We still keep your pictures placed where we can see them everyday. There will never be another dog like you. I think God send you to us because we couldn't have children and you became our baby. We will love you forever.

Mike and Dawn Bloom

Kashmir's inner strength was unbelievable. She endured a spinal injury, developed an enlarged heart, had a couple of fainting spells, and bladder infections. Yet through all this she was so upbeat and happy. Not long before she died someone asked if she was still a puppy. Pure enthusiasm!!

Peter Smyle

Kazzie,

We love you and miss you so. You are My Sunshine and these days have been so grey.

While we grieve now we are so happy and so grateful that you shared your life with us as you did. It was just not long enough, Baby, but still we are so happy for each and every day.

Be happy and be free my lovey. Don't beat up on the others up there too much. Play with our beloved Roo a lot and have fun, take care of each other and visit us as often as you wish. You will always be at home in our hearts forever.

We love you very much, our Super Duper Kazzie Booper! We love you so. Blessings be upon you my sweet boy and we will all be together again soon.

With love from Mama, Papa, Ossie, Kaya, Curragh, Brownie, Selkie and Koya.

Kashmir was a loving and adoring kitty.
He was playful and gentle, and gave unconditional love to his family.
He was the most elegant kitty we've ever encountered.
He left us unexpectedly.
We will always miss him and keep him in our hearts.

Shabnam Henry

Kate,
We dearly miss your sweet face.
We miss you running sideways, jumping and hopping all around the yard.
You were with us only three short weeks, but you have left a big hole in our hearts and minds.

Allen

Kate, You were the most sensitive dog I have ever met. We will miss you forever.....we never got to say goodbye, you were gone so quickly. A beauty beyond your looks. I will never forget your 'spinning and yodeling' An Aussie trait I was told...Have fun with Mandy till we get there Katie girl.
all our love, Mom & Dad

Kate was a very special poodle and will be missed greatly by her master, Cecil, and also by us.
We will miss seeing her romp happily along the shores of Lake Michigan and barking excitedly whenever a visitor or car came near.
We love you, Kate.

Heather and Richard Brett

Thanks to your spirit, you remained with me for four additional years. For that, I am forever grateful.

Janice Carroll

Our sweet little Kate, I knew the time was coming. I wish you had longer with us. We will miss you, we love you.
I know your with your brother Jack, tell him we still think of him and miss him. When you see all our furbabies that have gone before you tell them there still in my heart.
Your mom and dad loves you

Jane and Jerry Beaver

From the moment you first licked my foot amidst your littermates and I knew that you were the one-- until now has flown by so fast.
I wish I'd never gotten grumpy with you when you wanted to walk a little more and I was in a hurry. I wish I could've spent even more time with you and appreciated you even more than I did.
You were always the sweetest little girl.
Truly the daughter I never had.

The cancer was so evil and you fought it so hard.
"Daddy" said that you "adored" me but who could do more adoring than me for you.
I still can't believe that I can't look into your eye and then lift your silky, brindley-gold, ear (I loved the way you smelled) and kiss you there.
I know I kept you too long because you really fought for me but when you cried that last night (and you never ever complained about anything) then I knew it was time to let you go.

I miss you and I love you so much!
Your mom,
Lisa

Katie was the best little girl I could ever have asked for. She loved me unconditionally and I her. She has passed on after a long illness and I miss her miserably. I can never replace her and I promise her that we will be together again.

Debbie Demski

My sweet Katie:
Sweet, loving, and knowing. Smart, playful and opinionated. Beautiful, proud, and courageous. My guardian angel and best friend. Thank you for sharing your beautiful life with me. I will always love you.

Carla Aloi

A wonderful loving sweet dog who knew she was the boss but let me think I was...I will miss her every day of my life.

Gerri Losquadro

Katie, I love you and I miss you with all of my heart. Thank you for being my best friend. You have always been there for me and I was there with you until the very end. From the moment you entered my heart at your young age of 8 weeks until the time you departed from this earth, you were always a joy and my best friend. I love you!

Suzy

I still miss you, baby! I still call your name and expect to see you around the house. I'll love you forever...

Cindy Arnold

Thanks for your gifts too numerous to mention & for exiting so quietly out of our lives when you knew one more goodbye in the physical sense would be even harder. You were loved dear one.

Cathy Thompson

Sweet Katie Girl-our love and our prayers go with you. Your sweet face and your gentle ways will always be remembered. We can still hear you rooing to greet us and will always remember the gentle touch of your paw holding our hands.
We love you and miss you.

The Sabatini Family

Katie had to be put to sleep because she had a cancerous tumor in her and there was nothing we could do. I don't know how to live without her because I've never known what it's like to live without her.

Gina

Thank you for being my best friend I love and miss you

Love Mommy

Katie was diagnosed with cancer of the spleen on 1/14/04. She put up a good fight and would have been 11 on February 5th. We will miss her so much. She was a very special friend to us all. Have fun with your grandpa! :o)

Terry, Denise & Beth

katie I miss you so much. I know you were my angel in disguise. you were the one whom found me. How can I ever thankyou for all the joy and love you added to my life. I will never forget your beautiful brown eyes and the smell of your coat or you toothy grin. you are forever engrained in my heart and soul. stay with me in spirit...until we meet again... love mom

She possessed beauty without vanity, strength without insolence, courage without ferocity an all the virtues of man without his vices.
This praise, which would be unmeaning flattery if ascribed to a human, is but a just tribute to the memory of KATIE, a staffie. We love you, darling, for ever and ever, Mummy, Daddy, Molly & Squeak xxx

Goodbye my beautiful, precious Katie Scarlett. I know you're at the Bridge playing once again with your best ferret friend, Nikki. Be happy, play lots & rest well free of pain once again. I will love you forever! Mama

Katie, I miss you so, you were my best friend for the years we spent together. I loved coming home to see you sitting in the window waiting for me every night from work and miss you showering me with kisses because you missed me too during the day!! We loved those walks together everyday didn't we? You went so fast unfortunately I did not know you were
sick that morning because I was sick too, and you stayed in bed with me the whole time but when I saw that you did not wag your tail and could not stand I knew something was very wrong. Katie, the vets and I did everything we could for you that weekend except pull you through so you could be with me longer. I had to make the decision, I did not want you to suffer anymore, I could not make you suffer anymore. I took you home for a little bit with your IV in your little paw so we could spend time together that day. I have all your toys and your bowls put away along with your very own picture album. I have you in my bedroom and I talk to you every day. I know you are having fun on the other side of the rainbow bridge, I know you are waiting for me and I know someday we will be together again. Katie, I love You!! I miss You!! Mom

Kato, please know that I'll miss you and never forget what you have given to me over the last decade. You watched me grow from a teen-ager to a successful business woman, however you never treated me as anything but your Suz. I always knew you loved me and life will never be the same without my boy. I'll scratch your chin when I see you again at the Rainbow Bridge. Be nice to the other kitties:)

Suz & Donnie

Very Loved and Always Missed

Lou & Peggy McKay

Where was I little man when you got old?

It was yesterday you were snuffling your bowl across the room in hopes of more.
It was a moment ago you were rubbing your back on the carpet with delight.
It was not long ago you were pushing me out of bed so you could have the warm spot.
Seconds ago you were dragging your bed across the room to set it in a sun beam for a nap.
A moment ago you were pressing your forehead to mine and holding it there in a loving embrace.
Where was I little man when you got old?

I suddenly see how hard you strive to stand up now.
I see how blindness has played a part narrowing your world.
Did I think time would stand still or simply step around us because we found each other so late in life?
My head knew what my heart never dreamed of.
Now my heart is breaking.
Where was I little man when you got old?

I admit I saw your hair turning grey, but no faster than mine. Our salt and pepper matched each other.
Your arthritis kept healthy pace with mine and walks became strolls.
Life has become an even pace a calm place.
Where was I little man when you got old?

You sleep more than you are awake now.
I stop and touch you throughout my day just to see you move.
We are getting ready my dear friend for your transition.
Did I love you enough when you needed me to?
Did I sing “You are my Sunshine” to you enough?
Did I play enough when it was time?
Was there time enough to say thank you?
Was all your loyalty and love paid back in equal measure?
Was there enough cuddling and petting for us both?
Have we done enough together to last this lifetime?
Where was I little man when you got old?

Once you have crossed over will you come to greet me at my time?
Will we re-unite with joy and loving and carry on to our next adventure together?
In your life you taught me to truly unconditionally love another, in your dying you are teaching me to let go with grace and peace and acceptance.
You are teaching me how to say goodbye.
I will always love you.
I will always be grateful that you picked me.
Now tell me little man where was I when you got old?

Laurie

Katy you were our sweet precious baby...thank you for all the love, joy and memories. You will be forever our baby dog. Our home is empty without you, .You will remain forever in our hearts.

Teri Miller

We miss you floppy girl.
We love you so much!

Kelly Longo

You were the light of our lives, my little girl. Such a big personality in a little body. Daddy misses his little ChimChim, Mommy misses her little KaycKayc, & Max misses his best friend so much! You will always be in our hearts. Give Crystal Kitty one of your high fives for us. Our love will never die. Until we meet again at the Bridge SweetiePea, my precious little BabyCakes , your just the cutest little BabyCakes, my BabyCakes.....

Ron & Leatha Silvers

KAYJA WAS A JOYOUS GIRL - SHE GAVE HER LOVE UNCONDITIONALLY.
WE MISS HER COMICAL WAYS AND HER CUDDLY PERSONALITY.

Denise & Jenny

To my dearest Kayla...I miss you more than I ever thought possible. I am beyond sorry for being at work at your worst moment and I can only hope that you slipped away without suffering and knowing you will always be in our hearts. Our nights are lonely without you there beside us taking up space on the bed and the kids miss you more than you can realize. It's been almost 2 months and I still go to bed crying, please know that you were more than loved, you were part of the family, even when you were stealing the kids food, they are all over that, they wish you were back to do it again! I know someday once we are all over Rainbow Bridge we will have our chances again! I treasure the thought of that and I hope you are doing well in a better place. LOVE YOU

Wendy and Robert

I bred, trimmed and loved this gorgeous girl. Her elegant face with the long lashes were always a pleasure to see. A pure soul who truly loved me. She was met by her mom, her brother and three sisters.

Lori Pettineo

A tribute to Kaylar

A great and wonderful personality left my life yesterday. Kaylar, my cat and dearest friend of nearly 10 years, died in my arms last night. She is and will always be sorely missed. It seems like she was always with me, but I know there was a time before Kaylar and I'm now in the time after Kaylar. The time with her was too short.

She came into my life many years ago from an animal shelter--tiny, six weeks old and already bursting with those qualities that made her such a grand character. Kaylar came with innate curiosity, a whole lot of smarts and an inquisitiveness that carried her through this life and straight into my heart.

The very first day I brought her home, she got lost in the house and made a distinctive sound that became her "I'm lost in the house" sound. Just a few days ago, I heard her calling from the front of my house and I answered as always "Kaylar! I'm in here!" And she came running down the hall and climbed up in my lap.

Her smarts made her interesting. She tirelessly searched for the mouse pointer on the computer, spending a lot of time behind the monitor trying to see where it went. The Daytona 500 sent her behind the TV trying to find the cars. She always went for the highest spot in the house, even if it took her three days to figure out how to get up and how to get down. She figured it out. She spent hours trying to pull milk rings and ribbon balls out from under the couch so that we could have a good game of fetch.

Kaylar liked to be with me whenever and wherever she could. She'd sit in the bathroom sink while I got ready in the morning. She sat on my lap all through law school, 'helping' with the studying as only she could. She would sit at the computer with me--half on my lap, half on the desk, purring and half asleep while I did my work or surfed the net.

A little lithe tiger cat with golden green eyes and white racing stripes. I'll never forget how she looked at life with such curiosity and at me with such trust and love. She always, always met me at the door when I came home. She'd always run to find me in the house, and sometimes, I'd run to find her. We played hide and seek. She always found me, but sometimes, she would hide really well. Then I'd call her and she'd come running to me, ready for play or pets or hugs.

Kaylar gave hugs. If you asked "Who wants hugs?" she'd make a special meow and reach up so you could pick her up easily. She would relax onto my left shoulder, put her paws around my arm and snuggle in, rubbing her head against me and purring wetly in my ear. Kaylar would stay on my shoulder as long as a let her. Sometimes she'd even fall asleep while I walked around with her like that.

Sometimes we'd take napes together and she would put her head on the pillow beside me, squinting at me with her eyes half-lidded, nearly asleep. Purring as loud as she ever did, she would put her front paws on my face and we'd go to sleep. Sometimes she'd snuggle into my side, turning around and around to get as close and tight in as possible. Sometimes, I'd sleep holding onto her like a teddy bear, and she'd purr through that too.

I'll never see Kaylar at my door ready for hugs again. Nor on the couch, in the window or sacked out in the bathtub--a favorite spot. I'll never feel her wet nose in my ear, or feel the strong--almost violent--vibrations of her happiest purrs. I'll never look into those golden green eyes again see that steadfast, true love that she gave to me without question. I'll never go and "find" my "lost" kitty again.

I hope she knows how much I loved her and how important she was--still is--to me. I hope that she knows I did the very best I could for her and always put her first. No other person or thing in this life will occupy the part of my heart that is hers forever.

Kaylar was a great gift and a blessing in my life. I was the lucky one to have known her and her going leaves a great hole in my heart and in my soul. She will always, always be my most special baby--my dearest friend whose love and loyalty never wavered. A wonderful light has gone out of this life and I will have to find other ways, now, of illuminating the days and years ahead.

I held her to me last night when she died. I was glad to be able to hold her and tell her how I love her and how precious she is and will always be to me. She was an extraordinary personality.

So, Kaylar, my special kitten, thank you so much for every thing and every moment and for sharing your life with me. I'll hold you in my heart forever. I'll never forget you. I hope I'll find you again somewhere for lots of hugs. You'll never be lost again and I'll always be deeply grateful for the wonderful, loyal, unconditional love you gave me every minute of your life. I miss you.

Stephanie Towner

This tribute goes out to 3 very wonderful lives that have touched my heart in ways unimaginable who have passed on to the Bridge. To my sweet baby girls; Lady "Kayla" O'Shellafirth 11/17/87 to 1/21/02; My Brown Eyed "Shandi" Girl 5/1/90 to 10/7/03 and Boots'A Babe 2001 to 2004.

My wonderful, wonderful girls...you came into my heart in very different ways:

Kayla, a Christmas gift from my mother. I remember bringing home this very scared little puppy who would later test my patience as you found my home a very tasty environment...shredding everything from walls to carpet to your bed...you brought delight into my heart with your silly personality and quirky Sheltie ways. To this day people still talk about how you would do your "wind up bark" at a sneeze, or thunder, or loud laughter...you always had something to add to the noise level!!! And it never failed...you always ended your barking with a sniffing of your butt!! What??? Yes...you would do your crazy barks and then turn around to see what all the fuse was about!!! My silly quirky girl!!! My first true love!!!

Shandi, Kayla's pup who I couldn't give up (and so very glad I didn't). My "heart dog"...and my frisbee girl! You always were able to stop people driving by or going on their afternoon walks when we were out playing frisbee. They would of course comment on your beauty and then ask if you were a boy!!! Shame, Shame...there are such things as "athletic girls" you know! Even up until your diagnosis of cancer, the very core of who you were didn't slow down...just the sight of your frisbee made you perk up. I'll never, ever forget your sweet smell and gentle smile! You, you are always near my heart and at the core of who I am. You managed to bring out the gentleness in me and made me better person...thank you!

Boots, we were searching for a playmate for our Lady "Annie" Bug and found a heart searching for our love instead...and very graciously and loving you got your wish. We found you at a local animal shelter, surrendered by your owners because you didn't get a long with their cat. Okay...maybe, but please...your sweetness was to hard to pass up. Although you were in our lives a short month, you touched the core of our family and softened even my tough ole'husbands heart. Struck down in your youth by a very preventable disease, distemper. Just the thought of why you passed sickens me. There was no need, a simple injection would have given you a wonderful long life and us a lifetime of love. However, in the short time you were here you brought many laughs and many warm moments. I can still feel you near. Thank you for that warmth.

May we all meet again one day...til' that day, I rest knowing that God has welcomed the finest of his creatures back into his Kingdom and thank Him for blessing me with such a likeness to His love.

Always and Forever, your human companion...Lisa

A beautiful princess no longer is with me. I love you, Kay.

Sylvia

So long, my sweetest, golden queen. I will never stop loving you. Thank you for choosing me. We were a great team! Thank you for being there for me when times were rough. I hope I was there for you in your 'twilight' years, which were covered in darkness for you when you lost your eyesight. I hope you are happy and healthy and not missing me as much as I miss you. I'm not leaving that bridge until you join me.

Ilonka

Found as a tiny, bedraggled little stray, Kayleigh grew no bigger than a kitten. Our vet told us she would have 'a short, but happy life'. Well, Kayleigh did indeed have a happy, noisy, active & love-filed life, but surprised us all by living for twenty years..Gone to join her 'wee boy' Dennis (who passed on 3 weeks ago) & her human Mammy Margaret whom she adored. Deo Gratias.

We love you, Kaylie.
May you rest in peace.

Bryan & Elizabeth Brooks

I miss you so much Kazar.
I hope you feel no pain now, and understand what I did was for you.
I love you and miss you.

Sharon

Kaze was a very loving girl..She loved food, she loved to cuddle and she always found ways to make us smile. While her other cage mates were running around playing, she would be curled up on your lap wanting love and attention. She was a peace keeper, always breaking up scuffles between her cage mates...Her life came to an end when we had to make the heartbreaking decision to put her to sleep due to a severe respiratory infection. There are no words as to how much she will be missed.

Leesa, Sean, Linnie, Solstice, Cheesecake, Spook, Lacuna and Minerva

KAZ, our lives changed the day we lost you, but our love for you grows as time goes by.
ZAK is not the same.
Please look out for him, he's so lonely without you. Come by and visit sometime. You'll always be our boy KAZ !

Ken and Hermi

Koo Bear, My partner and best friend. I miss you. You are always in my heart. Take care of Faith for me for now. Love Meiamie

We loved you very much.You will live on forever in our hearts.

Nicole Bacher

My precious KC left her wonderful life here with me and her sister, Pepper. Thankfully, she had not been ill for long and didn't have to suffer much. Her "bubbly" personality will be sorely missed, but she will never be forgotten. I know she will be loved up in doggy heaven. I love you baby!

Shanna Borel

We know you're no longer in pain and that knowledge will comfort us one day....Today, however, we're overwhelmed with grief.

Christina and Enoch

KC, it seems like we had you for such a short time. You brought so much joy and happiness to us and we will miss you more than you will ever know.
Thank you for making us laugh every day. We will see you again. Love you Black Bean.

Teri

I loved him so much he was the cutest guy there was!!!!!

Krista

A tiny creature who healed my grieving heart and a heart that aches again. Thank you for our earthly journey together. I still miss you! Lots of Love, Mom & critters.

My family and I gave her the greatest gift we could, our love and relief from the pain of cancer.

Leesa

He was pure love and sooo good - he gave us such joy and laughter and we are hurting without him.

Cheri Dennett

KC you were loved by many and you are missed so much. The Mayor of Ashbrook has finished his job and what a wonderful job you did. You had no enemies only friends. I am amazed at how many hearts you touched - grown men, women and children have cried many tears since you left us. I wish I could have been there with you to hold and comfort you. The stray cat with the bent ear and funny lip is now with God, Butch and Huggy. One day I will see you again. The tears will not quite flowing and my heart is aching to hold you again - just one more time. I love you KC!

Joann Jackson

OUR ANGEL

K.C. kitty we miss and will never forget you, our pretty baby. We love you mommy, daddy, Sean and baby

John , Kimberly Chin

K.C May Boucher, you will forever be in my heart. I miss you every day and hope and pray that one day we will be together again for all of eternity. You brought me more joy than you will ever know and you will never be forgotten.

Robin Lopilato

We lost our dear friend tonight...our love & respect for Keefer wouldn't allow us to keep him alive any longer...he already had too much pain, unable to barely walk, blind in both eyes & deaf.
However his heart was strong right up to the end, his love unselfishly giving to us...

Karen Slaughter

To Keesha, the love of my life. The Princess of Spirits. I will love you and miss you forever and ever. You are my heart. It beats for you only. I am so grateful for the lessons you have taught me. I would do our life together all over again a million times. If I could look into your eyes for a million years and never gaze upon another thing, I would be happy. Stay with your Mom. Mommy loves you forever. We are going to be together forever.

Terry Ann Journey

Keesha was my friend, my child, my soul-dog...now another bowl has come up off of the floor and another one of God's angels has entered his Kingdom.
I will miss you always, Mother Dog.

Jenny Pond-Muckerman

You were the sweetest baby girl anybody could ask for. All who knew you, knew there wasn't a mean bone in your whole body. I never saw you growl or bare your teeth. All you ever wanted was to make people happy and be loved. You were loved very, very much. I know that you are at the bridge with T.T.Man now and are happy. Mommy and Daddy will miss you terribly, but you are always with us in our hearts. Please watch over us when we are sad, and help heal the hole left in our hearts.

Meredith and Anthony

You had been our best friend for so many years, I don't know how we will go on without you.
You were the most selfless soul we had ever known. If ever any of us were having a bad day, you knew, and were right there with your big wet black nose, nudging us and licking us, and letting us know that it was going to get better.
Now without you it is harder than I ever thought possible.
Hopefully with time the pain will subside and it will be replaced with wonderful memories. We will love you forever!

Sue, Andy, Evan & Danny

There are no words to express what Keesha meant to me and how much I miss her.
Our house is no longer a home without her and a part of me died when she did.

Debbie Thompson

With great sadness I post by beloved Keesha's name to this list. With the help of a exceptional Vet who came to our home to take us thru this journey with our little darling. She passed relaxed and ready to be free again. I know she's waiting for me. I love her so very much.
God be with her always. Until we meet at the bridge together.
Thank you

Vicki Martinson

We are grieving over the loss of our 9.5 year old Chocolate lab Keeta. Keeta lost her life tragically on 12/31/03 due to a tree accident. We will always remember Keeta as a wonderful bird dog and mother. She sure made her daddy proud in the field! We will remember the Keeta momma always smiling down on us! We love you Keeta!

Joel and Samantha Ritter

We love you Keiko. We will miss you more than we can stand. We are so sorry you had to go so fast. If only we had known... We know God had you in his plan. We hope you are with Lacy and Dixie...until we come to get you at the Bridge. We will take good care of Birkley and help him with his grief. Good Bye from your loving family. Until we meet again... Daddy

She was my best friend. She woke me up in the morning sent me off to school and waited for me to come back. We will always miss her.

Sue and Jack Childs

Dearly loved but not forgotten. We miss you still Keisha. She was our first "family dog" and put up with alot from our boys. We miss you laying in front of the t.v. and holding your paw up to shake. You were a joy to have and we will always remember you!

Lanita Thacker

My beloved soul mate went to heaven near the end of May. It was love at first sight and our companionship began so long ago that the memory has faded but I thank God for bringing him back to me for this short time.
I know we will be reunited.
He'll always be.

Mary-Elizabeth

Kelley, you are a sweet spirit. And, I know that our God knows when even a tiny sparrow falls, and I believe that you are catching butterflies with Jesus by your side. Some day, sweet little violet, we will meet again. See you at the bridge.

Dottie & Tom & Chris

Hi Kelli and Ringo. It has been very sad in this house since you guys left, Billie is so lonely without you guys. I'm sorry Ringo that you left a little too early, you would have enjoyed the cage and toys that I bought for Kelli and Billie Friday. Kelli, you only enjoyed that cage for only one day. I'm sorry to both of you that you guys had to die in such pain. The vet really didn't do anything but just told me you had something with your intestines, and your balance. I was crying so hard looking at your face at that last minute. It was such a painful face that would have broken anybodies heart in an instant. Your brother Billie was sick, and is still a little sick, because the problem passed to him too. But he healed, and is running around now. God must have seen how hurt and broken I was when I lost you guys, so he let Billie stay with us. I don't know how long though. It has been a fun week that you stayed with us after rescuing you from the freezing snow. Remember that we ALWAYS will remember and love you, even though you have been with us for just a little while. Dominque and I love you soooo much. You have brought joy to my world in that week. I know someday God will lead us to the place in heaven that you are now living in. In that time, we will hug you and kiss again, but without pain and forever. I'm glad that you are free from that pain, and that you guys are with your sister ,Mary, who died so soon. I love you guys so much, please remember us, because we will always remember you. We are in pain of your lost right now, but we now that you are not really gone, your body is only, you are still with us now, and when we are in heaven, we will see you again physically. I love you guys. We all love you guys. You are my first pets, and I will never forget you. Goodbye for now, but stay up waiting for us later. God will tell you when we come to you. Love, Thai, Dominique, Mom, Dad, and Ivan.

A very special dog to all of us, including our kitties! We know you're happily playing ball now.

John, Evelyn, Sean & Sheila

Kelly was the best dog a family could have. She was so loving and had such a big heart. I hope she knows how much we love her! We miss her tremendously!

Cathy Miller

We will miss Kelly so much...She was a member of our family and such a sweet and gentle dog.
Rest In Peace Kelly!

The Cole Family

Thank you for your unconditional love, your unwavering loyalty and of being my best friend. Though you are gone, your paw prints will always be on my heart. I'll see you on Rainbow Bridge.

Steve Bottomley

Kelove was a beautiful wolf who graced our lives with her presence.
We shall miss her terribly.

Jlona Richey

I cannot find the words to express what Kelsey meant to me in life, nor my emptiness now that she's gone.

Ken Hoyle

Kelsey was absolutely THE LIGHT OF OUR LIVES for the almost nine years we had her.
She suffered from spinal meningitis and thankfully didn't suffer for very long.
On the other hand, we didn't have long to say goodbye.
Our hearts feel completely empty, and we can't imagine our lives without her.
I miss so much holding her precious face in my hands and scooping her up to hold in my lap.
I cry everyday and wonder will I ever feel whole again.
Please pray for us and our beloved baby girl who we hope and pray to see again one day.

Ruth and Jerry McMillan

We will all miss you so much, Kelsey.
Your loss was so sudden we didn't get to say goodbye and tell you how much we loved you, but you must know we all did.
You were the sweetest girl ever and I know Cousin Daisy is taking care of you at the RB.

The Kendall Family

Kelsey you may be gone but never forgotten! We all love you and miss you greatly! You were the best pet and friend to us all, your loyalty and love will remain in our hearts forever. No other will ever replace you, see you on the bridge!

The Alcorn Family

A sweet little lady who gave an older retired couple 17 years of pleasure, which we can recap in the diary that was written for her.

Lillian Faler

My dearest Kemo, today my heart broke in 2 and you took the other half with you. So go and play boy ,chase the balls in heaven and you can swim in heavens pool. You are all better now . I will miss you forever. And you will always be with me! Love you Kemo boy!

Leah Sudduth

Ken,

You were such a great companion, never asking for much other than some hugs, brushed teeth, and walks. I am so sorry that you had to have so much pain in your final days. I would have done anything to relieve your misery, but all I could do is let you go to the Rainbow Bridge. I will miss you so much and your memory will never be forgotten nor will "Ken Catchem is the dog for me"! With love always and a special place in my heart for you. Mike

P.S. Say hello to Tyka, Jet, and Jager.

We shared so many adventures, and through them all he was the strongest, toughest, bravest friend I'll ever have...I miss him so...

Hollis Jordan

Ken-Ken we miss you so very much! You made us so happy and I hope to see you again someday. We love you!

Tori, Andrew and Dustin

My dear cat who came to me at work one day as a stray little kitten.
You will be greatly missed.

Brad

Kenya was a very good dog.
She taught my family and I so much in the short time we had her and I am grateful for that.
Anyone who has owned a Husky knows its not easy, but she taught us patience, love, and trust.
She was my little buddy and I will miss her dearly.

Anissa Worthington

Dear Keri
I will miss my faithful little friend forever.

Henrietta Roberts

My Beloved Kermie..
I love you so much. You brought me so much joy and I miss you greatly.! I will miss your "zit-zit" sounds, talking to you and playing tag.

Yolanda

My dear Kero, it has been a while since you passed and I think of you everyday. You continue to be a shining star in my heart and I love you and miss you dearly. I will see you again baby, just know you are always in my heart and soul and I am with you still.

Jessica Thomas

Dearest Kerry,

We have loved you for 15 wonderful, loving years. Stories from your childhood when you escaped every time you were barricaded away from your people. The wonderful birth of Shannon at Christmas, story. You were a proud mother! Thank you for still loving me when I went away. Thank you for staying on as long as you did when you came to live with me. You lived a tremendous life with us all of this time. I didn't want to see you suffering anymore. I wanted you to be free from your pain, from the blindness and deafness, and the breathing trouble. I love you, as I love anyone. I loved Obie, Critter and Shawn too, please say hello. Watch over Shannon so that she lives out her days as fruitfully as you have. And when it's time for a new pup, give us a sign. But until then, know that in my heart,to me, you are the BEST DOG IN THE 1990'S!

Love always, Mark, Erin, David Gardner O'Brien Gallagher Tompkins

Our faithful friend went to Rainbow Bridge long ago but still we remember and will never forget our Kerry brave to the end god bless you Kerry hope we meet again at rainbow bridge

Steve & Berine

Kerrybear, We miss you soooo much. You loved life.....you little swivelhead!! Always watching, wondering, making trouble.

We said our goodbyes last Monday...we will say our hellos at the Rainbow Bridge sometime in the future. Love You!!

Kaye Bishop

My dear Khya, I know you never wanted Ryally to be gone, you were never the same after he died. You are together now, my little piglet. I will never ever forget you. You were so small at 22 lbs but you kept up with Ryal at 100 lbs. You are a little girl with a big heart. I love you. Always. ps cuddle up with Ryal if you get cold.

Terry & Diane Masters

In Loving Memory, I will miss you; my faithful friend to the end!

forever will hold a torch for you, I love you.....

Aylise Daly

Our sweet little hampster Kid A died today. He was over two years old, which is the normal lifespan for a hampster. He was old and we knew the time was near for him to go. We take comfort in knowing that we gave him a good home and lots of love. We will miss him and will always remember him. He is buried in the back yard next to the tree where all of the birds and squirrels come to feed and the sunflowers grow in the summer. It is a very fitting place for him to rest.

Ric and Lisa

Kiefer we love you so much. We will miss your happy smiling face and your wonderful caring nature. Know that you will always be in our hearts, the same place you made your heart our home. Kiefer you are such a Good Boy!

Janet, Leon, Rachele

Kiki was 4 months old when I adopted her from the animal shelter. I already had a wonderful Golden Retriever and they were a perfect match, loved to play all day. I used to love watching them. She became ill 6 weeks after Shawn had passed and I had to help her on her way to be re-united with her soul mate Shawn today. She will be greatly missed as well as Shawn, but I feel as though they are in a special place.

Sarah Devanna

You let me know you were ready when you couldn't muster yourself to meet me at the door. It was the first time in 9 years you weren't there. You graced our home with your presence, we were so lucky to share in your journey. As hard as it was, I would not have been anywhere else but by your side when you left us. I'd still talk back to you, even at 3 am if I could, just to keep you company. From the first time we met, you stole my heart. I miss you. Thank you for loving us Kiki.

Lori and Ken

A Tribute To Kiki: She came to us an angel, And she left us as an angel.

She passed peacefully, in the loving embrace of her family.

Kurt and Tammy

To my little superstar whom I was so fortunate to have shared 13 years of fond memories.
My darling I know you hated it when people cried and I'm trying not to but all I want you to know is that every day that passes is a day I'm closer to meeting you at rainbow bridge

Jaime

Kiki-
It's been 8 months since you passed on, and I don't know how I made it through. You were always there for me to hold and love .
I miss picking you up and holding your little body. I'd do anything to bring you back. You are such a precious little baby. You will always be missed and forever be in my heart. I love you so much. Love, your mom

We miss our little girl terribly. She was such a delight with her talking. She always lead her daddy to the kitchen when she wanted something to eat. We miss that the most. We want so very much for her to be a peace and not in pain anymore with cancer.

Jerra Hood

Kiki, with you gone now, my heart feels empty. I know that I was not the best at giving attention and I feel awful for that but I love you so very much and I miss you like crazy. You loved to just lay in the sun and bask in it's warmth, which, ironically, was the reason we had to put you down. If you had been any color other than white, you would still be here, purring and suckling on my shirt. But it attacked your nose and slowly crept towards your brain. I am glad that it wasn't causing you any pain earlier on, because I got to spend some extra time with you. Spooky misses your nightly groomings. And mommy, daddy and I miss you a lot. I will see you later Kiki, you keep that big chair in the sky warm for me.

Amy

Our beautiful baby boy. You waited for Christmas to be over to spend one last holiday with us. You came as a senior to us 11 years ago. We miss you terribly. Wait with Puss-Kitty for us at the Rainbow Bridge. Until we meet again.. We love you Sharon and Jim Kurtz

You were my constant joy for nineteen years and I miss you terribly.
Although there may be future furry additions to our family, none can ever replace you.
You were so kind and loving - you were my constant solace.

Nina Benz

What a funny little fellow you were....running away from the school bus, wanting to go visit "Granny", running round and round after Pica Marie and Roadie. Even as you aged you still looked like a puppy. We love you and miss you daily. Your mom is still so sad when she looks in her closet at night and you are not on your pillow. She still hears you crying to come up on the bed. Say hello to Roadie for me and tell him how much I miss him. And I know you must be happy being with Granny once again. We sure miss the heck out of you here on Earth, though.

Lorraine and Lynne

You will never be forgotten.

George Melitse

I miss you very very Much

Megan Hinson

A loving, gorgeous companion and friend.

Donna Frank

You were my constant companion, you took joy in my arrivals, you frolicked like a little lamb, you gave the best 'kisses' you sang with the sopranos and I'll miss you until I meet you again.
You were my baby!

Dimi Stevenson

Kimba was the smartest, most loving, and loyal friend anyone could have. I was very lucky to have her in my life for the past 21 months, after meeting my fiancé. I will never forget all the times Kimba sat on my lap and told me about her day. I miss her little antics, like pulling my hair when she wanted attention. Kimba, your mommy and daddy miss you so much. We will always love you

Elizabeth Calleja and Richard Rubinstein

She's missed every single day. God forbid there be a heaven with no animals.

Megan Hinson

We will meet again true and loving friend and companion. Mom & Dad

My best friend - I miss you so much.

Ross Willingham

There was never a better friend.

My loving Kinser,
You were my pride and joy! What a wonderful friend to have.
I will miss you so much! Petsitting for you was the highlight of my day. I know that your brothers are missing you. I will try my very best to comfort them. Your Mom and Dad are so sad. They will miss you the most. Thank you for being my friend and helping me on my duties as your bestest buddy. I love you Kinsie Boy. You will be forever in my heart. Till we meet again!
Love your petsitter
Sue

Today we lost our beloved twelve-year old dog, Kip.
He was a fixture in our lives and truly part of our family. He was a loyal, sweet, caring, and endlessly entertaining dog who will never be forgotten. If everyone had a dog like him in their lives the world would truly be a better place. We are eternally grateful that we shared our lives with him.
We love you Kip.

Reyna Blanchfield

My beloved Kipper, I miss you so much. You were an angel that came from Heaven above...you were my companion, confidant, protector, and above all, the inspiration for South Carolina Samoyed Rescue to be born. You were my first rescue and the love of my heart, you are the reason that other Samoyeds come into rescue in your home, so that others can be saved and loved, as all animals should be. You welcomed each new addition, whether permanent or just passing through to their forever home with the same love and compassion that you were always known for. Your memory lives on in my life and in the soul of rescued Sammies everywhere. Watch over your brothers and sisters that have joined you at the bridge, protect,love and nurture them there, like you always did here. My precious Kipper, until we are together again, I miss you and love you, you will forever be my heart!

Mama

My gentle girl I had to let you go the other day.
When I brought you to the vet I just thought you were getting lethargic.
The blood tests showed that for your age (19) your organs were in remarkable shape.
A few days later, the vet told me with tears in her eyes that you had an inoperable cancer under your tongue and radiation at your age was not an option and that is why you were not eating.
I told her I would bring you home for the weekend and put you to sleep on Monday.
As you got older, I had dreaded this day and wondered how I would ever go though with it.
I'm glad you had the weekend with me and your dad.
You went downhill faster than we thought you would, but you bravely jumped on the sink to drink and went downstairs to your litter box.
I only hope when it is my time I can be half as brave as you were.
At the end you couldn't even drink water anymore.
The vet said you were lucky you had someone who cared enough to bring you peace and that some people aren't brave enough to do it.
But I had vowed that I would be at your side at the end.
I'll love you forever, my darling.
I know that now you are free and that I was only "borrowing" you from heaven for a short time.
Maybe now you can see your brother Felix again and be held by Danny, who loved you so much.
There is a big void at home and I keep seeing you there.
I hope we can be together someday.
You were the perfect cat and the sweetest gentlest girl.
See you soon, my angel.
Jim and I will love you forever.

Julie

Kira was a fierce little thing, she fought even till death. She was so loving of her family, very protective. She had so much spunk and personality, and she was my fat little princes... I miss you, Kira

April Elliott

Thank you, Kira, for the best 13 years of my life. You will live on forever in my heart and memory, and will never ever be replaced. One day we'll be together again, and I'll never let you go. I love you, and miss you with all my heart, and so does daddy, and your girls. Be happy, girlfriend. I love you.

Michele

Patient, kind, caring, compassionate - - Kirby was everything we, as humans, should aspire to be.

Chuck & Susan Wolf

Our dear little friend gave us all he had; but today he became too tired to continue.
We will forever miss him, love him and remember him.
We also believe that we will see him again at the Rainbow Bridge.

Derek & Judy Andersen

We lost you too soon, Mr. K, and we just love and miss you so much. We were so blessed to have you in our lives. Until we meet again...Love Mom and Dad.

I will always love you my handsome man. Thank you for your love and companionship. Till we meet again in Heaven.....you will always be my special boy. I love you.

Laura, Greg, and Harley

Hogan and his surviving brother, Bear, were therapy dogs before they turned 9 weeks old!
My late husband was in the midst of his first course of radiation when he announced he wanted PUPPIES!
They were always a comfort to him and have been my dear companions and friends for the last 9 $ 1/2 years.
Hogan died of cancer and I have no doubt is with my husband and our first Golden, Captain.
He was a funny dog and is so greatly missed.

Karen

Go without pain, my little angel. Mommy loves you and will join you one day. You will never be forgotten.

Eternal Love, Mom and Dad

Gary & Teresa Hicks

Kiska, We miss you! You were our best friend. You went so fast unfortunately, I did not know you were so sick. You were so strong that I did not know just how much you hurt. I knew something was wrong. I did everything I could for you except pull you through so you could be with us longer. There is a big void here at home without you! We miss your love and sweetness. Thank you Kiska for your unconditional love, your unwavering loyalty and being our best friend. Though you are gone, your prints will always be in our hearts. Kiska: A loving, Gorgeous companion and friend. Until we are together again, know that we love and miss you! Love, Zbynek, Cyndi, Sonny & Sasha

To my Nanner,

These days without you have been so hard, especially as now is a time when I need you the most. You were so strong throughout your sickness and pain, holding on and not letting me know how much you hurt until it was too late to save you. I miss your love and your sweetness, for six years never leaving my side. I don't know how to be without you, except to know you are free now, from all your hurt, waiting until I can be with you again forever. You were my strength, always there, and my heart is broken without you. I love you so much, I miss you so much, be good, baby, and wait for me, I'll see you soon. Love, Mommy

How dearly we loved our boy... But I don't think we realized how much his love had reached us until we had to say good-bye! I know our lives are richer for having him been apart of it. Even in his death we continue to feel his love guiding and guarding us as we travel through life...until we meet again. Blessed Be my boy!

You were my heart for the short sixteen months that I had you. Not a day goes by that I don't think of you and the wonderful love you gave me. I hope that I made you as happy during our short time together as you did me. Your ashes will be buried with me and I will join you at the Rainbow Bridge. Thank you for your good-bye kiss. I love you.

Ann Conway

Kita's heart would have never given out on her. Her heart was too big and it was a hard decision to let her go, but her body was just too old and sick. I love you, Kita.

Konnie Kubec

Kita, you were saved from a certain death 5 years ago.
The years we spent with you were precious and special.
You are sadly missed, however I believe that we will meet again.

Allan E Paakkola

goodbye my little tooters, you are very special to mommy, i am so sorry i couldn't make you better, i did all that i could do--if only i had lots of money i would have paid anything to make you better. hearing you cry for me when the vet took you absolutely tore my heart apart, i shed tears for you my sweet pea-- my heart is broken, i will never forget you and you will be missed eternally-- your ashes will be close to me always in my bedroom until i oneday pass away and you and me will go together. never forget how much i loved you and if i could have one wish i would hold you in my arms once again. never forget how much you were loved and how much you will be missed--ALWAYS.

KitKat was a dear friend, really, she was a sister to me. She was always there for me through thick and thin she was there to make me smile. She always knew when to give me just a little more afeection. She was a unique cat, she had her own personality and charm. Everyone who knew us knew that we were one in the same. She is in my heart and will always be a part of me. She is my best friend and I will never replace her.KitKat was the best cat ever. I loved her so very much and I miss her with all of my heart. I will always think of her and remember her. I loved KitKat so much and I can not wait to see her again.

Pamela Thompson

Thank you for not only being a wonderful cat, but for being a best friend. I will miss you dearly.

Kitters, We will miss you always and forever. We will miss your quirky attitude, the way you always talked to us. We could always tell how happy you were by the way you talked to us. I am so sorry that I was not here sooner. Please remember that we will always love and miss you!!! We will count the days till we can see you again.

April, Ted

Although she will be greatly missed, we pay tribute to the fourteen years that we shared with our "little girl."
She brought us much unconditional love and affection.
For that we are eternally grateful.

James Cummins and Robert Dorsett

You were my strength when my body was weak. You were my companion when I was lonely. You were my true friend because you never lied, deceived, or hurt me in any way. All you ever wanted was acceptance and love. I wish I could have gave you more. Our Creator will join us again when we return to you.

Chris & Wayne

In loving memory of Kitty. A wonderful cat that loved everyone in our neighborhood, and made our yard his home. Kitty will be missed by so many people. Kitty was about 15 or so years old, we only had the pleasure of knowing & caring for him over the past 5 years. I believe he went peacefully, and I'm thankful that he thought enough of me to pass on in our yard in his dog house so that we know where he is...in heaven now. thank you Kitty, I'll miss you, rest in peace.

Susan

Kitty, you brought such great joy to our lives.
Thank you for all your kind purrs and loving attention.
Take care of your little brother Arnie.
I'm sure he's waiting for you.
Love mommy cat, daddy cat, TJ, and Monkey.

Kitty Bear, a brave, most loving cat.
A beautiful spirit. A star that brightens the night.
We miss you and love you Kitty Bear.

Dick & Corinne Johnson

I miss you so much but I couldn't stand to see you suffer anymore....I know you are happy now and you have joined your buddy Sassie.

Sheila

I lost my best friend, this past Tuesday, she was a sweet loving cat, who gave me 17 years and 3 kittens of pure joy. She loved to watch birds out of the window and loved to greet me at the door.

Vicki Roberts

My friend,,true blue lady-I love you always-dad

Steve

She came into our life unexpectedly. She left the same way. We will miss her terribly. We had to guess the day she was born. She walked into our lives needing food shelter and Love. And she left us empty and in need of reassurance that our care was what she needed.

Lee & Linda Shafer

I found you on the side of the road today as you limped from under the car in front of me in traffic. You fell down the embankment into the ditch. Another motorist and one of my coworkers who saw me stop also stopped to help. We almost couldn't see you for all the leaves but I spotted your gray striped in the bottom of the ditch. You were hurt badly, scared and dangerous to anyone who tried to help. I wrapped you in the only thing I had the scarf I had around my neck. The other two tried to help push and pull me up the embankment and not fall and drop you. I rushed to the first vet I knew about 2 miles away. By then you had fallen off the seat and went under my car seat. I just prayed you wouldn't go under my brake pedal or bite my legs and cause a accident. The vet techs came out with towels and a special trap to catch you. By then you had leaped in the back of my wagon.
I cried, call my husband and told him where I was and Id be late. I told the receptionist where I had found you and took a moment to go out and clean up some of the mess in my car while I waited for something. I had told the vet if you needed to be put asleep I would cover there expenses. Once you were sedated the vet confirmed you had a cracked pelvis and your front arm was severed as the shoulder. I told them to put you out of your pain. The vet told me it was the best thing they could do for "her" I didn't even know you were a girl. The vet cried with me and we hugged and she tanked me for brining you in. I just couldn't leave you to die alone and frozen in that ditch. For a moment b4 you passed you were out of pain, you were in a warm place and with people who cared and wanted to help. I hope my Fred, Molly and Buggs are there to meet you and guide you on your way and know that you didn't die unloved..

Leann Walther

So much love in such a short time, yes 21 years is not long enough, you will be missed, and you will always be loved, will see you Hopefully real soon.

Alice Curnutt

He brought me comfort, happiness and joy....he was there for all my hard times and good times...he was the best friend I ever had...and he never talked back (okay not true...esp if he wanted a treat)..and for that I love you...you mean the world to me!
It's unbelievable that he saw me through High School graduation, to my Bachelor's and now my PhD....he was my rock!
I love you Kiwi and I wish you peace in heaven and I hope you look down upon me for my lifetime.

Mommy

My first best friend, you loved the outdoors and terrorizing birds. I'll miss your voice and your beautiful face. You will always be a part of me. I love you Kizu. -Karen

Kizzie.....Who was to me the sweetest most precious dog there ever has been or ever could be. I miss you so much.

Steven & Theresa Moore

My love muffin KlemmerP. you have now left your so sick body and now you are just like your old self once again. Full of love, joy, running around, and bonging up and down. You brought your mommy so much joy and happeniness that still and always will be with me in my heart. I can't wait for us to be together once again you were everything to me, Klemmer. We shared life together for 15 yrs and how I didn't want to let you go but my lover dog you were so sick and it would have been so selfish for me to make you suffer any longer. So my muffin man I gave you the greatest gift that I could give to you. You play now and run with the others and one day Klemmer P. I shall hold you in my arms once again.... I know you are around for I feel you, even hear you at times I know you are near because I can smell you too. I miss you so my little lover man...... Your Mommy .....

It has only been five days and I can barely stand the pain. I miss you every minute. Each night I look for you when I come home from work, or expect to feel you next to me on the bed. I keep reliving the last couple weeks and the last moments with you and I would do anything to have you back with me. I went through boxes and boxes of pictures taking out each one of you for the last 12 years and want to make a montage of you but right now I just want to hold you one more time. I loved how you always loved me and was there for me always. I will always love you.

Deb Amerine

A wonderful family Dog named Knicks who will be forever missed.

Stacy Wood

Koa was the best dog ever. She was great with children and everyone loved her. She could make anyone fall in love with her, even people who did not care for dogs. She will be missed deeply. WE LOVE AND MISS YOU KOA!!!

Teresa

Our love for Koala Bear is eternal.
We only hope she will be waiting for us at Rainbow Bridge.

Paula & Richard Crowder

Our precious Kobe was taken from us at such a young age of only 9 months. For some reason Kobe needed to go "Home" many years before we were ready for him to. Our precious baby's life was taken from him as he was struck by a car early one morning. Kobe was a one of a kind lab...so sweet and precious (and obedient)! We will never forget our precious puppy as he looks down upon us! Thanks for the wonderful memories that we will forever cherish! We love you and miss you Kobe!!!

Moey and Stephen Davis

Kobe was my very best friend. I have never known a gentler, kinder soul in this world. His impact on my life is overwhelming. The love Kobe gave me was the greatest gift. I will never ever forget him and the unconditional love he bestowed.

Terri McCallister

We love you Koby and miss you so very much! We hope you joined Abby up in heaven and are watching over us.

Anna Kaplan

Koda's mom was a siberian husky/malmute, his dad was pure golden retriever. He was a real pretty black and white color with golden tips on his black fur. He was loved by many including his cats Krispy & Tigger, and will be missed greatly.
Thanks, Tom

Kodi, we love you so much.
You will be in our hearts forever.

Elmer & Peggy

Kodi, you will always be IV ever special in my heart.

Marianne A. Kudelski

"Koder" loved to walk in the woods and visit the Frog Pond. He will be sadly missed by his human family and his American Eskimo "sister" Freebie and his adopted kitties, Missy, Isabel and Shadoe.

Don Oswald

Kodi came into our lives as a matching set, we adopted Kodi and her sister Kassi when they were just 9 weeks old, two very inseparable bundles of fluff. Kassi is no longer part of a set. Today we lost our sweet girl Kodi to breast cancer, which turned out not to be just a cyst as we were told.

Kodi came into this life knowing how to shake hands and give a high five, she liked to dance with her Dad, whom she adored. From the moment their eyes met it was love at first sight. Her playful spirit, her oh so expressive eyes, her soft fur, her huge paws, her bushy tail and a million other things that made her so special, will always be in our hearts, death can't take that from us. Dearest Kodi, you take with you all our love, knowing we will meet again someday, till then be happy sweet girl, we will miss you. We love you,

Dad, Mom and Kassi A personal note to our fellow pet lovers When we discovered a lump on Kodi's breast we took her to see the Vet, he said it was nothing to worry about, just a cyst, that it would go away by it's self, it didn't. It stayed the same for almost a year and we still were told it was nothing. Suddenly without any warning it began to grow very fast. We took her to a different Vet, the results from the surgery... Cancer wide spread through out her Vascular and lymphatic system, an infection raged through her body as it filled with it's own fluids, finally leaving us no choice but to put her to sleep. To any who may read this never settle for the cyst answer, have it removed and tested, I never want anyone to suffer the loss we are feeling because of a misdiagnosis. As we learned too late second opinions are never a bad idea.

Ronald and Janine Bonar

My sweet Kodi boy, I was so lucky to have you in my life. You helped me thought some of the hardest days of my life, and now you are gone. I know your were an angel sent from above to be with me. You brought such comfort to me. I can only hope that I gave you comfort in your short life.

The day I had to let you go was the worse day of my life. But I know Dad was there to meet you at the bridge, and once again you were where you were happiest--in his arms.

You'll be in my heart.

Until we meet again. I love you. Mom

Sweety & Kodi, You were taken from our lives suddenly & tragically by those cars. We are devasted and miss you terribly. We will take care of Booda who is lost without you both. We wish you all the happiness and running your paws can do forever. We will NEVER forget. We will eventually be ok. We went to see you and make sure it was you and it was SO hard on Momma & Daddy, but we had to say goodbye. I know you no longer hurt and are hole again, the way I will remember you. Please be ok and look in on us from time to time. I wish you could have seen Logan grow up more than just 8 months. I have been writing you all the time. We will see you again I promise and we will walk to heaven together. We love you and are so lost without you.

Jeff, Jen & Logan

For my baby Koko,
I'll always love you and miss you. I know how you were when we wasnt by eachothers side so please know that everythings going to be okay and I'll will be with you someday. I love you Koko, my Koko. You'll always be with me in my heart, mind, and soul. I love you.

Love Lizzy

TO MY SWEET BOY, YOU WERE THE SUNSHINE! EVERYONE WHO EVER MET YOU LOVED YOU! YOU WERE VOCAL AND OBSERVED LIFE WHILE LIVING IT. YOU WILL ALWAYS BE A SPECIAL PART OF ME:)

Dawn Telles

He was my best friend.
No matter how tired I was, no matter how bad the day had been, he was always happy to see me.
He never had a bad day.
My heart is broken.

John Buckner

To My Best Friend.. I miss you and I will always love you, forever

Mary K

KoKo was a beautiful black poodle given to me as a gift when I was eight years old.
I am now 24, and my beloved dog died after going into shock for an unknown reason this past Saturday.
She is sorely missed and I will never love anyone as much as I love her.

Jennifer

Kokoa you were my Beloved gift from God, my Best Friend, my Loyal Companion.
"I Love You Forever"!
You are safe now at the Rainbow Bridge and forever safe in my Heart.
Until we meet again my love...please wait for me, I will find you.....................

Bonnie Karr

She passed on last night. She suffocated from unknown reasons. I held her in my arms and wished her peace. Told her to go it was time, she was fighting and hurting. She left us after 22 beats of her heart.
Please include my children and husband in your thoughts. Grief has hit them hard.

Kay

We have lost a true, loyal and trusted friend and companion, and The Children's Home has lost an institution in the passing away of Kopek. We got Kopek as a puppy 17 years ago, shortly after we moved to Winston-Salem, and it was not long until you could see the security car going over campus and this beautiful German Shepherd racing over the hills to catch up with it. Kopek became the unofficial TCH "security dog," accompanying his Dad on his security rounds. Kopek was ever vigilant and, while you always knew that he "meant business", he also possessed a gentle and loving spirit that would allow anyone, young and old alike, to greet and pet him. Kopek meant a lot to the countless children receiving services from the agency, who would call to him as he made his "rounds." In later years, Kopek needed to ride with his Dad in the car, but he still watched everything with those alert, intelligent eyes, and still retained his gentle spirit even as his "aches and pains" increased with age. He truly was an institution, as well as a revered friend & companion to many.

Rebecca & Huseyin Barboff

Koty you were such a joy. You brightened each and everyday. I miss you so much and I will never forget you. You will remain in my heart always. Koty, Momma loves you. You are my sunshine!

Jennifer Bolen

Klaus was the most wonderful cat. He loved everyone and everyone loved him. We will always love you Klausie and will always be in our hearts. May you fly free angel. Be young and strong again and we will see you again.

Mommy and Daddy

I will always love you.

Irena

Our little buddy took his fibrosarcoma when it returned after surgery like a man until the end. He was my comrade in chronic pain and illness and will be forever missed.
Go, Kramer.....find Puddy and Toby....have a great time! You earned it, my little friend.
Mama will miss you, but I will be fine....Today is a National Day of Mourning in more than one way for me.

Mrs. Marty Mayer

Kramer,

It's been 1 year since you left us so suddenly. You were just a baby. Your time with us was so short and we miss you terribly. Of course, you'd be happy to know that you brother, Mack, now lives with us. Your passing has given him a better life.

Have fun at the Rainbow Bridge until we meet again.

Sharon & Brian Blaszak

Oh my dearest Kramer how we miss you smiling face. I can't wait to meet you at rainbow bridge.

Brianna

There couldn't have been a sweeter dog or friend. I will miss you more then words can say. Our Little Man will live in our hearts forever. Play with Lacey until we can be together again. Mommy loves you.

Sue Frye

It hurt us deeply when you left us. We think of you often and know that your feline family miss you. I was so very sad that you had to put to sleep but you must have known we tried our best to help you and did not want you to suffer. Now you are with Frosty cat, your brother. He must have not wanted you to be alone in heaven so wanted to go to be with you May 16,03.He knew what a little "scaredy cat" you where. Love you always.

Lindsey Sammut

We love you and will miss you terribly. Thank you for making our lives better by having had you with us. Someday we will be together again. Til then will think of you always.

Shelly Dietrich

Our beloved dog, companion and friend. We are deep in sorrow and shock over your loss. You will always be in our hearts!

The Vega's

Thank you so much for enriching my life, Kronos, goodbye my dear, faithful friend, ... was sooooo hard to let you go, and I know that after the tears stop, the memories will remain. You and Egan are together, as you always were, and at peace...under the maple tree by the river, at the Rainbow Bridge, and always in my head and heart.  
So hard to say goodbye to you, so very hard, you are the best dog I ever ever met, goodbye my dear dear friend, I love you.  
Till we meet again, mom xxx

Kruger,

Twelve years of memories will live forever in our hearts. Dogs like you come along once in a lifetime and we were truly blessed to have you as a part of ours. For all that knew you, you had left a lasting impression - you truly touched every single one of their lives. Not that many dogs out there have that type of reputation and for that we were very proud to have you as our pet. You were more than a friend, you were our baby.

We love you. Rest in heaven our sweet puppy...

Your forever family - Rikki, Mike, Jake, Jeremy and your furrybuddy Oliver

We badly miss our Big White Hairy Monster Dog

Ed, Deb & Amanda

Our Krystal came into out life and nothing was ever the same again. She was so loving and full of life. To see her get ill at such a young age was breaking our hearts but the love and joy she gave us will never be forgotten and can never be replaced. She was so happy and so much a part of us. She will always have a special place in our hearts and will always be with us in her wonderful and precious spirit. I know that one day she will run towards us as she spots us at Rainbow Bridge. We again will be a family and will never be separated again. Mommy and Daddy love you our dear and precious little Krystal.

Krystal, you will be forever in our hearts!
We Love You!

Kujo was a very special dog. I loved him alot. I named him after the saint Bernard Kujo in the movie cause my saint Bernard looked just like Kujo. Then one day I could not find Kujo after school. I asked dad where he was and he said that he gave him away. Well at the time I did not know what my dad had really done 2 him. I found Kujo in the back yard dead with a bullet hole in his head. I ran crying to dad telling him that he lied 2 me and told me that he gave Kujo away. I asked why did u kill him and he said that he was getting 2 aggressive so he had 2 be put 2 sleep. I never saw Kujo again. I miss him now but now he lives within my heart. When I die I will walk across the Rainbow Bridge and we will walk back together never again to be separated.

god saw u were getting tired and a cure was not to be so he put his arms around u and whispered come with me. with teared-filled eyes we watched u suffer and saw u fade away, although we loved u deeply, we could not make u stay.

a golden heart stopped beating, loving paws were put to rest, god broke our hearts to prove to us he only takes the best.

we love u Kujo. We will meet again someday. but 4 now u will always be in our hearts 4-ever.

I hated letting you go, but I know you're with your brother now.
Horribly missed.
Thanks for the lessons in love and affection

Julia

My dearest little mama,
You were with me through all the heartache and pain of my treatment for cancer. I last saw you the night of my last treatment. You were my angel, I believe. You were sent to get me through it. I was so excited about your babies that were on the way. It was my turn to give back to you. Unfortunately you passed away trying to get home to me. I love you for your strength that you gave me.

Linda McCans

My dearest little Kyla I don't know what to do without you sweetie. Pretty Kyla you brought me so much joy and I'm so sorry you got so sick and I hope you can forgive me as I thought letting you go would ease your suffering. You are my forever cat I will never forget you and god how I do miss you. Keena misses you too. (((((kyla))))

Sharon Stacy

You brought joy, companionship and love, and you can never be replaced. There is a corner in our hearts that is reserved just for you, and you alone, for you were a faithful and loyal friend. We love you and we will always miss you.

Bill and Beverly

Beloved baby girl of mine, how my heart aches for you and Andorra, who went before you in 1999.
You were both my joy and saw me through good times and bad. How I miss your companionship and unconditional love.

Joyce Greene Leblanc

I've lost such a special friend...My best friend. You were always here for me and made me feel better after a hard day. You protected me and were there to lick away my tears. I miss your snoring and you sleeping on your blanket. You always waited till I went to bed before you would go too and you were just like me and loved to take naps....All I had to say was "wanna go nite nite with mom?" and you followed. For 14 years you brought me joy and it's been almost 3 months since you left me. I thank God that he took you here at home with your family but I wish to God that you could come back. Life is soo hard without you. I miss you Kyro and it still hurts so bad. I pray that heaven takes animals and that I'll see you again one day. (Your presence still lingers here and it won't leave me alone. These wounds won't seem to heal, this pain is just too real, there is just too much that time cannot erase)
