In the Loss of Your Pet

There must be a heaven for the animal friends we love. They are not human yet they bring out our own humanity… sometimes in ways that other people cannot. They do not worry about fame or fortune… instead, they bring our hearts nearer to the joy of simple things. Each day they teach us little lessons in trust and steadfast affection. Whatever Heaven may be, there's surely a place in it for friends as good as these.

A donation was made in loving memory of Elsa Papa,
by James & Carolyn Horn. May 2003

"Elsa was a well loved member of the Papa's home and the sweetest of all dogs that I know. I can't even claim that my own dogs are as purely good as she."


Northwest Indian Memorial on Death

Do not stand at my grave and weep.
I am not there.
I do not sleep.
I am a thousand winds that blow.
I am the diamon glint on snow.
I am the sunlight on ripened grain.
I am the autumn rain.
When you awake in the morning hush,
I am the swift uplifting rush of birds circling in flight.
Do not stand at my grave and weep.
I am not there.
I do not sleep.

Rusty - May 2010

Rusty fought a very valiant battle for 15 months through cancer. He never showed any signs of pain - being a true Collie through and through.

Passing On

When a dog finally passes on, there is an emptiness, a place in our heart that will never be filed again in exactly the way it was. Because no matter how many dogs we have over the years, each is a unique, a friend, and when they go away, our lives are changed forever in many small ways.

Jamocha

A donation was made in loving memory of Jamocha by Jerry & Shirley Musik

"Jamocha was the faithful and very much loved companion for 14 years of Jerri & Jim Van Beek, our daughter and son-in-law. I wish every dog could experience the abundant love and tender care that Jerri & Jim gave to Mocha. I hope this will in some way help another dog find a loving home."

"After Death"
Farewell Master yet not farewell.
Where I go ye too shall dwell.
I am gone before your face,
A moment's time, a little space.
When ye come where I have stepped,
Ye will wonder why ye wept.
by Edwin Arnold
