Prince by Sherril
You were my best friend all through my childhood. I saw your soul and you saw mine. My deppest regret was that I was not by your side at that last moment. You were in so much pain I couldn’t bear to see it. I should have been stronger for you my love.
I now have a cat who makes me feel like I’ve found you again. We are stuck like glue. I am as close to him as I was to you. Maybe it is you? Until we meet again Prince I hope you always feel my love.
To the sweetest
little gentleman on earth..
Sherril

Tumble Wheat Tyson by Patricia
Tyson
Tyson was a wedding gift from my husband. He was born the day before we were married and I got him two months later. He was a long haired Dachshund and was the most beautiful dog I had ever seen. I was pregnant when I got him and he used to always cuddle up next to my stomache as though he knew. Every where I went he went. In fact when I was doing the dishes he would curl up in a ball on top of my feet. I miss him so dearly. He was hit by a car and my sister-in-law found him.
He was still alive and she called me to tell me. I rushed to him and just as he crawled in my arms he took his last breathe. I believe that he waited to see me one last time and for that I am so grateful.
Tyson I love you with all my heart and hope to see you again some day. I miss you so greatly and think of you often. Sometimes I even sit next to where I buried you while I read or watch my son play.
You will always be
in my heart.
Love
MOMMY

Julia Elizabeth Montrose by Ellen
My beloved Julie/Jewel
Box/Puddles/Miss Montrose
For nine years we had to see you in “shifts” because you and Tina were furious combatants whenever you confronted one another face-to-face. It was a difficult arrangement to carry off in a small 4 room apartment; but we did it because Bill and I both loved you and Tina enough to handle the inconvenience. We’d gladly have endured it another dozen years.
You made the most of every shift. It was your bright little face and eager energetic greeting that met me every day when I returned from work. No matter how unpleasant the day just passed had been I loved opening the door into your joyous tumult. Because you were abandoned as a young puppy and suffered distemper your start in life was not ideal. But I’ll always remember that early autumn day when I waited to cross the busy street and spied you a pretty peppy off-white little puppy following a soldier who stopped to pet you.
I asked if you belonged to him he said no and without hesitation I picked you up. You grinned licked my face and that was that. Your periodic health troubles were conquered not so much by the skill of Dr. Avram but by your fierce will to survive your joy in life. We knew your sudden illness on 18 May could not be overcome. When we arrived at the clinic both of us covered with blood excretion and tears Dr. Avram’s grave remarks surprised neither of us.
You were sprawled out on the examining table when you gave me your last look of recognition – a look of love regret utter acceptance of your imminent death but concern for me. Easy enough to clean the floor and my clothes of the residue from your poor little body. But I am finding it hard to stop the tears because I miss you desperately.
No one who had such a beautiful spirited loving animal as I could doubt for a second the survival of your souls. I know you are elsewhere – but that you are and I hope you will meet me when my own time comes.
My little Julia:
thank you for nearly ten years
of love and joy.

Baron Von Lunker BH CD by Denise & Tom
There are no words to adequately describe how great Baron was. No words can hope to touch upon how very much he will be missed. Though I was not Baron’s caretaker I did watch him grow up over the years and he stole a little piece of my Heart. The following words are a weak attempt at a tribute to my dear friend Baron. I am sharing a small piece of my memories with others in hopes that they will send him good wishes and love along his Journey to the Bridge.
Baron was a handsome substantially built Black and Red male German Shepherd Dog. Handsome is an understatement. He had “movie star” looks and could easily turn heads when he walked into a crowd. His commanding presence to those that did not know him demanded respect and a cautious approach. Luckily his strength of body and mind was tempered by his good nature and gentle Spirit.
He was a dog that exemplified what a true German Shepherd should be…brave loyal alert protective stable versatile intelligent handsome athletic eager to please and fun loving! He had the most expressive face I have ever seen…his well defined eyebrows were human like and he used his looks to his advantage. It was hard to be upset with Baron even on those rare incidents when he was a bit naughty. He was too darned cute! His deep brown eyes with a pleading twist of his eyebrows could melt anyone’s heart instantly (and elicit treats freely).
Wherever Baron went he gathered up new admirers. There was not one person or animal that had the privilege of meeting Baron that did not fall deeply in love with him. Baron affectionately known as Bubba was kind and gentle to all he met whom had good intentions. Those that Baron did not like were few and far between. We found that he was an excellent judge of character and we learned to trust his judgement. Ninja my Rottweiler who did not like most other dogs LOVED Bubba. Ninja was a great judge of character as well. Bubba was the only dog brave enough to play with Ninja. Baron later became friendly with my female Rottweiler Borita. Now he will rejoin them both at the Bridge for a game of “chase me and catch me if you can”.
Baron I swear to you understood exactly what was said to him. So much so that it was almost eerie. Looking into his eyes you could see his soul in all its’ glory wisdom and gentleness of Spirit. Baron was a substantial sized dog yet the puppies and the children could hang all over him and he tolerated it like a Champion.
His soulmate Asta bossed him around from Day One when she came to live with Baron as a small little girl puppy. Baron could easily have stood up for himself but he chose not to. He played “older Brother” to many pups and young dogs. He never once showed them anything but love and tolerance to infinity. He was better than letting petty grievances stand in the way of true friendship. To see Asta and Baron interact was very entertaining. Baron would grab the ball and stare at Asta enticing her to chase him. If she was busy doing something else he would just keep staring at her and letting the ball dangle precariously from his mouth. Sometimes he would get bored waiting for her he would toss it up in the air or drop it and let it sit a second…pretending that he was giving Asta a good chance of grabbing the ball. Sometimes Asta fell for that one and rushed in only to have Baron scoop it up a half second before Asta got to it. Sometimes Asta or whomever Bubba was playing with would try to ignore him…but they all would eventually give in and chase him. Baron was in his glory when he was being chased by his playmates.
To see the unabashed JOY in Baron’s heart during this game was heart-warming. He could easily outrun most of his companions especially his slower Rottweiler friends but he would always run just enough to keep one foot in front of them just out of reach of their mouths! Baron as many of us humans can not do found such pleasure in the simplest of things. Catching a ball sniffing in the leaves snoozing in Mom’s Closet going for a walk or a ride.
Baron entertained us with so many tricks. He would carry his food bowl up to the sink after he was done eating. He could hear the cookie jar open from a mile away and would be ready to start his ensemble of obedience commands or tricks. The funniest think I will remember about Baron was his love of turning Santa Claus on…literally. Baron’s people had a small Santa doll sitting on a rocking chair. They would tell him to “go turn on Santa Claus” and Bubba would rush to Santa and push his nose quite forcefully into Santa’s crotch. Santa would then say “HO HO HO” and Bubba had us all in stitches laughing.
I am sure that at the Rainbow Bridge Baron is in his glory. He will NEVER run out of friends to chase him or closets to nap in. He can now keep a watchful loving eye on his Mom now and can visit her and
his beloved Asta at will.
Baron was an excellent obedience competitor. My own personal goal was to someday beat Baron in competition that is how good he was. For Baron not to win first prize was truly an unusual circumstance. I admired his desire to please and his precision and joy at following his handler’s commands. He truly was a crowd pleaser! Many competitors feared having to compete against Baron they knew how close to perfection he would be!
I wish that everyone in the world could have a companion as wonderful as Baron. If they did I do believe there would be much more love and tolerance in the world today.
We feel honored that our lives were graced by a Spirit as true as gentle and as noble as Baron’s was. He will be greatly missed by all that knew him. We do hope that one day we will be reunited with him for a game of “chase me chase me please”.
Until then our beloved Friend
rest in peace.

Max by Linda & Russ
Thank you Max for the six years you spent with us. You are so special with your six toed feet and your soft cuddly fur. We miss your “thumbs” that you used as only a six toe can. I donÆt think itÆs over forever Max I think we will meet again. You will have your favorite catnip and your favorite paper bag to lay on again. We will once again smell the country air together I just know it. We will walk in the tall grass that you so loved to hide in.
We have adopted two kittens whom I am sure you would really like. They will not be able to take your spot in our hearts though so please donÆt worry about that. You are number one in that area forever.
Goodbye but just for now Max.
We love you forever.

GOOD-BYE
With heavy hearts
and a tear in our eyes
After all these years
we must say goodbye.
Please understand
we’ve done all we could
If there was anything
we could do
you know we would.
I’m sitting right here
gently rubbing your ears
While I talk to you softly
trying to hold back the tears.
The memories you gave us
we’ll never forget
Especially the ones
of the day we all met.
One last hug and
one last kiss
You have no idea
how much you’ll be missed.
To look into your eyes
this one last time
You tell me it’s okay
you know it’s your time.
Close your eyes now and
go to sleep.
We’ll pray to the Lord
your soul he’ll keep.
Go in peace now
our good friend
We’ll stay right here
with you until the end.
Dream of that special day
and time
When we’ll meet at the Bridge
and all will be fine
We’ll run and play
side by side
With a soft warm feeling
deep down inside.
Your memory will live
on in each one of us.
You’ll always be number
one to all of us.
Have a safe journey
through the night
I promise when you awake
you’ll be in God’s light.
So with heavy hearts and
tears in our eyes
Just for now my friend
we say goodbye.
Mommie Amigo and Daddy.
~ John Quealy ~
For my beloved Mistress
Master and Amigo.
I understand your tears.
Every tear is a proof
of your love for me and
I feel honored and humble.
But do never forget
the good things we have shared.
Think of it and smile.
That is a great honor of me.
And if you need me
I will be there.
Close your eyes
take a slow and deep breath
and see me in front of you.
Shut off the world
just for a minute and
close your ideas about death.
Give me a chance.
Find subtle signals
I send to you.
Please do not stop
to be proud of me
I am a friend where
you can be proud of.
I am still your friend.
Please do not mourn for me
but celebrate my everlasting life.
Because it is eternal
just as my love for you.
See you soon Raices.

Wally by Ed
Wally was an unusual Dog. He liked everyone he met people and other animals. Cats especially believe it or not. He loved the forest and long walks while he was able to walk and swimming. He was a smart Dog and absolutely loyal and trusting. I’ll miss him meeting me at the door every time I come home. The only time he didn’t meet me at the door he was sleeping on the sofa snoring. I could’ve cleaned the place out and he would have still been snoring.
What a guy.
Though he had life-long pain in his hips he rarely if ever made a sound. Stoic is a very appropriate term to describe his spirit. When he was younger he would run in circles when I came home at the end of the day.
Wally came from a local animal shelter as do my 2 cats. I have never had better animals than the ones someone else didn’t want. That is their loss. Wally liked ALL types of people food. His last meal was 2 cheeseburgers from McDonalds and about 20 cookies. It was the only thing he had an interest in eating at the end.
I will NEVER forget
this stoic and outstanding animal.

George by Beth
George
You will always by my puppy although your body is now older than mine. I remember the day we got you at a craft fair at my elementary school. You were the runt the little one who fit in the plam of my daddy’s hand. We struggled for a name for you for weeks and finally called you George after George of the Jungle. You kept walking into walls.
You brought so much happiness into my life especially during my teenage years. You would listen when no one else understood and ‘kiss’ away my tears. You were excited to see my newborn son although at first I don’t think that you knew what he was. You have put up with him for two and a half years and he loves you as much as I do. I know that you are now suffering and in pain. Your age is getting to you.
I am going to miss you my puppy. Thank you for playing with me protecting me trusting me and loving me unconditionally as I do you. I am going to miss you George.
I love you.

My girl (Blackie) she was the best puppy. I want to say to her even though is been 5 yrs in June I still miss you alot. Sorry I left in the vets office from them to do some test and that was the last time we saw you. When the vet called to let us know you had passed on my heart was aching and I did not get to say good-by.
Well you are in god’s world now and you are in a better place without pain. We will see each other again. We will all be together.
I miss you and
I still cry for you
my little girl.

Romeo by Lisa & Conchita
In loving memory of my Mom’s cat Romeo sweet affectionate and loyal housecat that kept my Mom company and brought a ray of sunshine and warmth in her heart. Romeo was killed by selfish and greety people who took my Mom’s home away from her and thoughtlessly trapped him inside his home while giving termite poison to the house..
Bless his darling little heart. I hope that somewhere somehow justice will be done Conchita and Lisa love you so much Romeo little angel help my mom get through this all!

Fluffy by Lisa & Jannie
To Fluffy
You came into my life when you were already 2 years old but the joy you brought into my life was indescribable. When we first met you wanted to scratch me and growled at me but soon there after I became the only one that could hold you and you would lie contentedly in my arms. I love the way you looked at me and winked your eye and always answered me
when I spoke to you.
Your passing came so suddenly after I only had the pleasure of your company for a year. Your death was also unnatural and I can’t believe someone would have removed you from my life just because they didn’t feel
the same about you.
Missing you stax

Kitty by Val & Jim
TO OUR DEAREST
LITTLE GRAY KITTY GIRL
How were we to know on that summer day in July 1985 when you a 6 week old stray kitten nipped at Val’s heels that our lives would be forever changed? From that day and for the next 17 years you chose to share your life with us and we chose to make you the center of ours. We know that our lives were immensely enriched by you inviting us to travel your life with you. We hope little Kitty girl that your life
was enriched as well.
There are so many things to say about you. You were beautiful. Your short gray fur was silky and shiny and invited to be touched. Your eyes were expressive and revealed your varied moods. Your meows were a language which we learned and understood. Your tail which twitched at the sound of your name stood tall when you were happy and tucked away in times of trial. Your disposition was so sweet that all who met you immediately feel in love with you.
You were very atheletic. As a younger cat you literally galloped across fields. You were a sight to behold when you ran at full speed upon the calling of your name only to come to a quick stop as you saw us so that you could casually walk up as if you had no excitement in the prospect of seeing us. And you to our great concern would climb the heights of trees and walk and jump across roof peaks. Your agility was a constant source of amazement to us. No ballerina ever looked as graceful as you and no acrobat ever had your confidence in walking the high wire.
You maintained the instincts of a jungle cat. You would stay on alert when outside measuring every sound to detrmine whether friend or foe approached. Your skills as a hunter were superb as shown by the numerous treasures you brought us and which you pranced before as the proud food bearer who had succeeded that day. Your were always pleased with yourself by the gifts you brought us.
You had a shy side too. You were always embarassed by your fur balls and occasional accidents. You seemed to strive to never disappoint us and would await our encouraging words following any mishap before you returned to normal. Dear Kitty please know that we were never anything but proud of you and concerned about your well being. You never did anything but make us feel great about ourselves.
You were playful. Hide and seek was a game you adored and we played it with you a lot. As you peeked around a corner you looked to see if we saw you and when you realized we did you would charge off in another direction and wait until we came looking for you. An aluminum foil ball became a favorite toy. You would bat it in the air try catch it and then with your paw kick it to us hoping that a return pass would soon be on its way. You would hide in a paper sack while we pushed in the outside of the bag so you could jump at the movement. Your playfulness provided us with many laughs. We enjoyed the games you invited us to play with you more than you enjoyed them. We are so grateful that you
let us play along.
You were also a smart little Kitty girl. You quickly learned how to control us with your looks your movements and your special language. Your intelligence was most clearly revealed when you learned that you could command us to action by thumping the spring door stop or thumping the window and door blinds. You trained us well Kitty Girl. We did what you wanted to be done when you wanted it done. We will miss your daily commands and requests.
You were a strong will being. You ventured off as a young kitten in search we think of a couple with whom you could relate. It took alot of courage for one so young to head out in the dangerous world. You never showed any fear. You survived a car hitting you and breaking your hip an alegeric reaction to flea spray thyroid problems thoracic duct problems and urinary tract infections. You never missed much due to these problems and always bounced back to your lovable self. We learned so much by the strength of your character when you faced these problems. Thank you for the lessons you taught us.
But most of all Kitty you were a loving soul. You warmed our hearts each time you selected a lap or stomach to rest upon for the evening and when you chose Val’s head and pillow as the most comfortable spot to sleep during the night. We loved your always eager anticipation for a head rub and you never tired of being petted. We always melted when you walked between and rubbed our legs saying now is the time when we each will show affection by us massaging you all over and you giving our hands baths
with your tongue.
Kitty we adored you. You were the center of our lives. We will miss you so very much and for the rest of our lives each day we will think of you and smile. Right now we hurt because you are not here. But we know that you had a great life. We thank you so very much for wandering into our lives 17 years ago and agreeing that we could spend so much time with you. We know that on any day you could have chosen to go elswhere. You did not. Your decision to stay was a great gift to us which we never took for granted. Please rest well our beautiful little gray Kitty girl.
WE MISS YOU AND WILL FOREVER.
Val and Jim Talley

Yesterday you left this life and I am feeling so sad. I miss you dearly. You were my soulmate and companion for nearly 10 years. You were such a great little dog one in a million. You alway commanded the armchair and no one else was allowed to sit on it and rightly so.
You went through a lot of trauma throughout your life and battled cancer for the last 6 months but as tough as you were you could not beat it even though you had the best of treatment.
Well my sweet baby it will not be the same without you and I have no one to sleep on the end of my bed. Hope you will be happy up there
Your loving mum….
