We miss you our baby boy. Its not fair that you had to leave us. You were a dog that is a once in a lifetime dog and we are lucky that you came into our lives to teach us about love that is unconditional. You will always be our Geebie


Edel Velasquez, 5/15/1999 - 2/6/2015

We lost our beautiful dilute calico Persian, Edel, on 2/6/2015.  She was just 3 months shy of 16 years and was a very brave girl.  This is our letter to her:

Edel,("Mrs. Noodle"), Our beautiful, loyal, "bossy", "knows what she wants", regal queen.  Thank you for the companionship, love and joy you have given us through the years.  And for keeping us on our toes. 

Everyone who met you loved you, especially Nan whom you loved to sit with and keep company. 

We will never forget you and we will see you again when we meet in heaven.  Love Always and Forever, XOXO Linda and Victor


Emma, 12/4/2015 Small Cam

Emma, it's been one week since we had to give you back to heaven. The pain is still tremendous. I think of you all day, and fall asleep with you on my mind. It seems as though our 13 years together flew by. I have so many wonderful memories of you.  You were the very joy of my life.  The excitement I felt to come home to you everyday after work was the same over the last 13 years as it was the very first time I left you home after I got you. In the end, my excitement turned into anxiety as I would drive up the street and pray to God that you were ok.  I'm still in disbelief that you had an aggressive cancer. It all happened so fast.  How could you go from seemingly fine to so sick in a matter of 2 weeks? I know you were a tough cookie, so you were probably sick for awhile before the signs began to show. 
Today on my way into work I drove through the park. My heart aches because I know I won't be able to walk with you again. I don't think I'll be able to go to the park again. That was our place. We miss you girl.  But I miss you the most. I feel like my soul has been ripped from me. It's so hard to be happy these days when I don't have my best friend who was the very reason I was happy.
I love you Emma, and I always will. You will always hold a special place in my heart. I hope you understand that I had to let you go before the cancer worsened.  I didn't want you to be in any more pain than you already were sweet girl. This house is not the same without you and it never will be.  I know you're here in spirit though, and until we meet again, wait for me Em. xoxo, with love, Mommy

The Last Moments

I sit in this house so empty bare,
Hoping for your warm loving stare
See you suffer was to much for my soul
You poor Baby, you wouldn't even eat from your bowl
I had to do an unthinkable thing
Have to see the Vet and do the right thing
For in the truck you would not be
So this horrible thing was left to me
You walked endlessly not knowing what this was about
For the tumor in your head had taken your senses out
I think you recognize me, God I hope its not true
For this terrible thing I must do
I lead you outside the place you love
Watching you from the deck above
Building my courage and tears in my eyes
Asking God why, why must I, take my best friends life
I stumble into the yard still crying you see
My friend needs not suffer unlike me
For what I must do, has to be me
She walks towards me such a beautiful dog
Oh God, Oh God why me, she is my dog.
I raised the gun up, saw her face
Oh God why am I in this terrible place
The shot rang out and my friend is on the ground
Not a twitch not even a sound
Thank you God, it was you, shaking hands, I know my aim wasn't true
My heart hurts its over at last
For my best friend has pasted
I rush over and fall to my knees, asking for forgiveness please
I love you Erma with all my heart and soul
You were my best friend, I will miss you so
For my love of you has made me strong you see
For this thing I have done, how could it be me
No more of a gentler soul could there be
Than a German Shepherd as she
A Poem for you Erma, Miss you, love you Brad

Letter to Erma July 17,2015

I love you Erma, Its been a year
I wish you were mine and still here
I cry for my best friend every day
I am lost without you to guide my way
How to I tell people how much you meant to me
I wont be able to, they will never see
You were there to love on me when I was stressed
And play with me when I was depressed
You kept me from going over the edge every day
Without you I wouldn't have stayed
Knowing you loved me and needed me every day
Made this place a little easier for me to stay
I want you to know that I was a true friend
It was hard on me to do what I did in the end
So who will be my savior when it becomes my time
I will find my best friend, hopefully in time
I need someone with strength, courage and will to do the right thing
Its hard when you love someone to do the right thing
I'm going to leave now my love, my best friend
I cry for you every day
I don't know when this will end
I will be back next year to remember you my friend
May God hold you, until I can do it again.
