Lemmy, 3/11/16

Lemmy...even though we had a very limited time between the time I took you home and the time you passed, you filled my life with smiles and laughter. You looked at me as if I had giving you something you had not had before...maybe a warm bed, love, a forever home, however, you gave me more than I ever could have giving you. I miss your goofiness, bark, smell, and most of all, your unconditional love. I look forward to the moment when we can be together again. I miss and love you my forever friend. Hugs & God Bless......

Lil’Bear
These are the remains of our beloved family member ,Lil’Bear.
He was born Jan 19 2008 and he died Feb 19 2016.
He died of cancer.
Lil’Bear was an all black pure bred German Shepherd.
He was very intelligent and loving of his family, though he and I were exceptionally close.
He loved going on walks ,camping ,going to the ocean or just plain playing in his yard ,playing with his balls and Frisbees. He also loved watching TV, especially when there were doggies on the screen.
We love him very much and miss him terribly.
The pain of losing him is no different than someone losing a child.
I pray to God that we will be together again in Heaven.
Goodbye Lil’Bear , ’till we are together again.
Much Love,
Norm your Dad ,Carolyn your Mom, and Zoe, and our kitties.

Lilly, 11/25/08 - 05/11/16

Lilly, my shadow, my dearest friend, my truest companion, my keeper of secrets, my comfort in my darkest days. My love for you will never fade. Our family is so fortunate to have had you in our lives and you will never be forgotten. You were so happy, so full of life! Always wanting to play, just a little ornery and always ready to soak up every ounce of love and affection you could! I long for the day we are reunited and I can look into your loving eyes and feel you leaning on me when you know I need a hug. Thank you for your love. I will miss you every minute my sweet beautiful girl. You touched everyone you came in contact with through your gentle loving soul. Dad, Lindsay, Nate, Pap and Gram loved you just as much as me and miss you like crazy too. You were an amazing gift and I am so thankful you came into our lives. Wait for me girl. We will be together again one day! ❤️❤️❤️

Love you always,

Mom

Lilly Rae of Red Isle, March 27th, 2007 - November 10th, 2016

Dear Lilly,

I was never a religious person, but every fiber in my body hopes this message gets to you in some way or another. I miss you. It was just earlier this week, we were walking on the trails having a great time. Even though I was with you in your last moments earlier today, it still feels like it has been an eternity. You've left me with a unfillable hole in my heart, and seeing your toys, blanket and bed still around, only drives the knife deeper. Despite this, everything you've given me in life, all the happiness and joy, has made me a better person that I could have ever imagined. You'll always be my girl, my Lou, and I wanted to make this as a homage to our 9 years together.

I always wanted a dog when I was younger. We had Babes our cat, but a dog is special, and we had lots of fun together. You were so small when we brought you home, but still so cute it would bring the neighbors around to see you. Mom and Dad had to drive for 6 hours just to pick you up, but we were sure we wanted you. I was only 10, but it still meant so much to have someone at the house I could play with. You were the sibling I never had. Although you liked to chew on everything, and pee'd in the house a few times, we knew you were the one for us.

Your uniqueness set you apart from all the others. I remember having to mix water in with your food when you were young, just so your new teeth could chew it. I loved the way you would always be at the door, waiting for any of us to return home. You were always so happy to see anybody! I miss seeing you standing still as a statue in the backyard, because there was a squirrel in the trees. You always prioritized them, nothing else could steal your attention better than those squirrels. I miss you scratching at the car door for me to put the window down, I miss the way you perked up when I was about to finish a meal, knowing you'd be getting the last of it. I miss being able to take you on walks, I could use the exercise too. Most of all, I miss you for being you. I miss having a confident, and somebody who will be happy to see me no matter what my mood is, no matter the time of day, or even how you were feeling at the time. None of that mattered to you. You loved unconditionally, and that is something that not everyone has the privilege of having, and for that, I thank you.

The last few months have been a bit of a struggle. It was hard seeing your health deteriorate. The medication helped with the nosebleeds, but we knew that was just delaying the inevitable. I hope you were happy with our choice to euthanize today, I never wanted to see you suffer. You seemed a bit disorientated on your last day, and it hurt my heart. I know you never liked the vet's office, but you got to see the nice lady that usually cut your nails, one more time. She was happy to see you too, and if you couldn't tell, you made a lot of people in your life, very happy. After the injection, I put my hand in front of your nose, which would always be met with kisses, I knew pretty quickly something more important for you, was happening. Just know that every decision I've made for you was out of pure love, and always wanting the best for you.

It's my dream that someday we'll meet somehow. I'm sure I'll have so many stories to tell you by then, and the same for you to me. I've learned to complain less because of you, and you've made me more compassionate. These things helped me to not be selfish about your passing, and made me see that it was what's best for you. If there is truly a heaven, maybe we'll meet at greener pastures. For now, please keep being the beautiful Lou I've loved for half of my life, and take care of the piece of my heart you took with you.

Love you forever,
Riley

Lizzie, May 23, 2003 - March 18, 2016

Beloved Lizzie, we miss you. You are ever my darling. Thank you for being in our lives and blessing us with so much joy. You are free now to run at the beach as long as you like.
Ever in our hearts,
Mommy, Daddy, and Zelda

Lola Bear, 12/04/2008 - 12/19/2016

Lola Bear was a retired breeder's dog. She had given birth to 25 puppies during her breeding years but was no longer able to conceive even though she was only 4 ½ years old. A friend of mine and myself drove out to the kennel to pick her up on July 7, 2013. She was a big (and I mean big, approximately 100 pounds), beautiful golden who was about 40 pounds overweight. I needed help getting her in the back of my car. When I brought her home my wife was speechless. We put Lola on a diet and within a few months she lost almost 40 pounds. She was so frightened of her new surroundings that she would hide in our backyard behind an electric utility box and some bushes. We had two other goldens (JoJo & Jesse), who made friends with her but she was still very skittish. I finally fenced off the area so she could no longer hide and would have to join in. Within a few weeks she got with the program but she always was a bit skittish. If my wife brought out the toaster Lola would run up stairs and hide in the bathroom. After she had lost the weight she still had problems climbing into the car. Finally after weeks of coaxing she figured it out and was able to sit up front with me while my wife sat in back with our other 2 goldens while we went to the park each morning. Lola ultimately became a sweet, goofy addition to our pack. She loved to hunt squirrels but was never able to catch one.(See her picture sitting at the bottom of our tree waiting for a squirrel to come down). She did however catch birds, chipmunks and one skunk who she frightened to death although the skunk had it's revenge before it died. Life was great with our little pack though members changed occasionally due to passings. Two years ago Lola was the only one left so we rescued another friend for her. In October of 2014 we brought home Kevin, a 6 year old golden retriever. Lola took to him immediately and they became best of friends. If Kevin barked , Lola barked. If Kevin laid down, Lola laid down...on him. When it was time for their evening walk, Lola would jump up and start humping Kevin before she would let him get his leash on. Things were wonderful with our little pack as we celebrated Lola's 8th birthday on December 4, 2016. On December 18th Lola didn't want her lunch which was extremely unusual. She had never had a sick day in the 3 ½ years that we had her. That evening however she gobbled down her dinner so we relaxed. The next morning she seemed very lethargic and didn't want her breakfast. Not wanting to tempt fate we took her to an emergency clinic. The vet ran some tests and gave us the bad news. Lola had a large tumor on her spleen and was bleeding internally. He said that he was quite sure she had cancer though they would not be able to tell unless the did a biopsy but regardless the outlook wasn't good. He felt the humane thing to do would be to euthanize our baby. The one thing we never want to do is keep one of our babies in pain so we agreed to have her put to rest. At 7:20 AM on December 19th we said goodbye to our Lola Bear. We are still in shock as our baby girl was fine Sunday morning (or so we thought) and Monday morning she started her journey to the bridge. My wife and I still look for her or call her name when it is time for breakfast or dinner or when it is time for our walks. We will miss our Lola Bear dearly and will never forget the joy she brought us. Lola is survived by her brother Kevin, a golden retriever and Aly, a beautiful kitty cat.

See you soon Lola Bear. JoJo and Jesse will take care of you at the bridge until we get there. They will introduce you to all your sisters (Sheba, Maggie Mae, Goldie, Baby T, Isabella, & Dolly), who passed before you came home with us.
We love you Lola Bear
Mom & Dad

Lollipop Johnson, 04/15/11 - 03/05/2016

Lolly, you were such a beautiful boy. So much so that I thought you were a girl, which is why you had the name Lollipop instead of something more manly. Imagine my surprise when I got to the vet and found out! You were such a sweetheart. I loved how you would come t the front door and peek in when you wanted a snack. I had no idea you were about to leave me. You didn't give me much warning. You were here one day and gone the next. I'm going to miss you tremendously. So will Twinkle. But, you are with your mommy Pebbles now. And your brothers and sister. I will see you at the Rainbow Bridge, my precious boy. Rest in peace sweet Lolly. I love you very much.

Loulou, August 2003 - 10th October 2016

I'm so sorry that we couldn't make you better, cancer is an evil thing. You will always be in my thoughts.
RIP with Thomas and your brother Hugo.

Louie, 3/30/08 - 3/25/16

Louie was the best pug and had so much love to give. He was loved by not one, but two loving families. He knew when you were happy or sad. Lou loved waking you up by giving you kisses that never ended. Playing tug with his rope was his favorite play time. Going for walks and quick jogs in the yard or neighborhood were his favorite with race sprints. As Lou got older his joints started to go and had some seizures. Now you are in heaven and aren't in pain and can get all the treats you want and run through the fields. Till we meet again Louie. You are deeply missed and always loved.
Ryan

Louie, 03/11/2016

I went to the shelter to look around. Seeing you was the closest thing to love at first sight I've ever known. You survived Hurricane Katrina, and made your way to Maryland. Then the man who adopted you was sent off to fight in the Middle East. The shelter staff told me you were not doing well. You were such a sensitive soul. The moment you landed in my arms, I knew. I took you home and loved you so for 9 years. I loved everything about you, helped you when you had your terrible seizures, held you tight during thunder storms, and told you every day how much I adored you. You will always be loved. I am sorry that this illness took you. I am glad it was fast. When you come to meet me at the Rainbow Bridge, I don't know who will run faster-you or me. I will love you forever, Lou. Love mommy, daddy and your brothers.

Lucy, 07/30/2004 - 08/17/2016

Our precious and beloved Lucy who brought so much fun and joy to our hearts. We miss you so much. Your loss was so sudden but we are so grateful for the time we had with you.! No words can explain how empty we feel. We love you very much.

Lucy, May 3, 2002 - May 14, 2016

Fourteen years ago, Lucy came into my life with her innocent charm. Now my tiniest but greatest friend has earned her wings.

Thank you Lucy, for taking me on this journey and for teaching me how to take pleasure in life’s little miracles that I might otherwise have missed.

Thank you for making me laugh while you spent hours looking for a hiding place for your bone, or racing around the house after your bath to get the ‘clean’ off of you, or fetching your tiny ball and never bringing it back, or pushing off whatever was in my lap so that you could replace it.

Thank you for being so patient while my grandchildren dressed you in silly outfits and made you participate in their homemade movies.

A kind friend said, “Love and a good family, however brief the adventure, however anguishing the separation, are eternal and worth the courage to try. Love is forever.”

Godspeed, my little friend.

Ludlow, 3/15/02 - 3/3/16

Ludlow - We miss you and love you so much. Now you and BJ are together. Love - Philip, David & Cooper
