Mira
6/19/99 - 12/31/07
In her shy way,she gave love to everyone she met. When she got her courage up to approach someone,she always gave them a tiny kiss on the hand. Everyone who knew her loved her. All the neighbors told me how much they liked her and that she would be missed. I think that says a lot. In a very doggie neighborhood, she stood out. She never had a cross word for any of her fellow dogs. For a dog that would not chase a lure and never raced, she loved to chase cats,squirrels and rabbits outside. She never hurt any of them, though.

Sandy Warner-Bennett

1994 to December 1, 2008.

Sandy was absolutely the sweetest dog ever, even if her breath sometimes wasn't. She brought love and joy into our home from her very first day with us. She was known around our neighborhood from frequent walks which she loved. We got to know many of our great neighbors because of their interest in learning about her. She loved to lie down nearby us and get her ears rubbed.

Age and illness eventually took her from us, but her gentle spirit and many warm memories remain.

Memories of Epika Lea, aka Bob's Epic

Three years ago Epic came into this inefficiently run household with the determination that, being the Alpha she was, she would use her skills to make it a much happier home. She began by teaching us that all trash cans must be kept behind locked doors, unless wewanted the contents unevenly distributed around the house. Leftover foods were to be put down the garbage disposal and not in trash cans. All eatables were to be stored in cabinets or spaces at least six feet off the floor and all counters were to be kept clear of appealing items. This house contains the ghosts of pets past and they assembled to welcome her. She learned quickly the best place during a storm is under my computer desk, a lesson from Max. How to destroy the kitchen, when left alone, she learned from Sam, the monkey who resided here for nineteen years. Ladybug, the dalmatian gave instructions on being a proper watch hound. They assured her that with reasonable behavior, and of course, being adorable and cute, she would be able to settle in and get the management under control very quickly, and so she did. Never wanting her food bowl empty, she would come announce that she was going to eat her food and wanted it filled before she was hungry again. The water bowl had to be cleaned regularly and water had to be fresh. She loved her walks and knew where to find her leash when needed. Epic loved wearing a coat when it was cold and her pearls when attending dress up events. She may not have been proficient with English, but her body language was a very effective mode of communication.
Epic, you remain permanently in our hearts and are fondly missed.

From Your Pet in Heaven

For all of the times that you have stooped and touched my head,
fed me my favorite treat and returned the love that I so unconditionally gave to you....for the care that you gave to me so unselfishly...for all of these things I am grateful and thankful.

I ask that you not grieve for the loss but rejoice in the fact that we lived, loved and touched each other's lives.
My life was fuller because you were there -- not as a master/owner, but as my friend.

Today I am as I was in my youth.
The grass is always green, butterflies flit among the flowers and the sun shines gently down upon all of God's creatures.
I can run, jump, play and do all of the things that I did in my youth.
There is no sickness, no aching joints, no regrets and no aging.

We await the arrival of our lifelong companions and know that togetherness is forever.

Companions such as you are so rare and unique.
Don't hold the love that you have within yourself;
give it to another like me and then I will live forever.
For love never really dies, and you are loved and missed as surely as we are.
