LOVING TRIBUTES
To our babies who are gone...
but never forgotten

"All creatures possess an immortal soul. They just come in different shapes..."
Hippocrates

Isabella April 24, 2005 - June 26, 2007
God’s Garden

God looked upon his garden
And saw an empty space.
He then looked down upon the earth
And saw your loving face.
 
He sent an angel for you
And lifted you to rest
Gods garden must be beautiful
He only takes the best

He knew you would be suffering
And knew you were in pain
He understood far more  than I
You would not be well again

He knew the road ahead was rough
He knew what was to be
So lovingly he closed your eyes
And whispered “Come with me”

It broke my heart to let you go
But know you weren't alone
My heart and love were at your side
The day God called you home

Pretty Princess Isabella, loved fur baby of Mommy Gwen was taken much too soon. Her life, however short it may have been, was filled with love and pure joy of life that affected all her knew her. Isabella will be fondly remembered far beyond her presence here. All all of us who have lost a fur baby wishes for her mom to think of her and smile, remembering the laughter and love..all the while knowing that their time apart is only temporary. Good bye sweet girl. You will never be forgotten.

Remember Our Love

I was chosen today
I'm learning to fly
the world took me away,
but please don't you cry

And I chose you today
to try and be strong
so please don't you cry
and don't say that I'm gone

When you're feeling alone
just remember our love,
I'm up near the stars
looking down from above.

Remember our love
In a moment you'll see
that I'm still here beside you
when you're thinking of me.

Chloe
Chloe is mommy Helen's baby fur angel that was taken back to heaven much too soon.  "She will truly be missed by me and everyone she had ever came in contact with.  I don't think I have ever had anything that has touched my heart as much as she did.  She will be loved by me and my husband forever. Thanks to everyone for their love and concern." Only those of us that have shared our lives with one of these amazing creatures can begin to understand the bond that we form. There are no words to express how something so small can leave such an enormous impression on our hearts. Good night little Chloe....you were loved more than you could ever have known.


"We who choose to surround ourselves with lives even more temporary than our own, live within a fragile circle, easily and often breached. Unable to accept its awful gaps, we still would live no other way. We cherish memory as the only certain immortality, never fully understanding the necessary plan."

Irving Townsend.



JOE SEPHIE 2000 - 2008
Joe Sephie is the cherished monkey son of mom, Nancy and his un-timely passing leaves a void in the lives of his extended family and friends. Words cannot express how deeply he will be missed by those who knew him. He was full of joy and filled the lives of those around him with love and laughter. His gentle nature endeared him not only to his human companions but to the other furbabies that shared his life. Joe was one of the angels that we cannot keep, but only borrow for a brief time He was here long enough to teach the lesson he had to teach:  The true meaning of unconditional love. In time, may the tears and sadness give way to the memories of all the times he made those who knew him smile....I understand from those who knew him best... that's what he would have wanted. Good-bye Joe Sephie...sleep peacefully, sweet boy.

No Stone need stand where he lies...his life is engraved on our hearts........


ONLY YOU

It's said memories are golden
however that be true,
I never wanted memories
I wanted only you
A million times I've missed you
a million tears I've cried
If love alone could save you,
you never would have died
In life I loved you dearly,
In death I love you still
In my heart you hold a place
that now will never fill
If tears could build a stairway
and heartache make a lane,
I'd walk the path to heaven
and bring you home again.
Our family chain now broken
my world never the same
But as God  calls us one by one
the chain will link again.

Lil' Joe...so handsome in his jean jacket
Lil' Joe is the much loved monkey son of mom Polly Custis. Sadly this precious, loving friend and companion lost his battle with spinal meningitis on November 13th, 2008. From all of us who have lost one of these beloved companions, our thoughts and prayers go out to Polly and her extended family. We know how much Joe was loved and how desperately he will be missed, not only by his mom, Polly, but by his brothers, Skipper and Louie, and his "person" sister Chloe. Lil' Joe leaves behind a fond memory to all those who were blessed to call him their friend.
The important thing is.... Lil' Joe knew how very much he was loved.
Good bye sweet Lil' Joe...you will never be forgotten.

 
Do not stand at my grave and weep

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 diamond glints on snow.
I am the sunlight on ripened grain.
I am the gentle autumn rain.
When you awaken in the morning's hush
I am the swift uplifting rush
Of quiet birds in circled flight.
I am the soft stars that shine at night.
Do not stand at my grave and cry;
I am not there. I did not die.

Mary Frye


I'm Still Here

Friend, please don't mourn for me
I'm still here, though you don't see.
I'm right by your side each night and day
and within your heart I long to stay.
My body is gone but I'm always near.
I'm everything you feel, see or hear.
My spirit is free, but I'll never depart
as long as you keep me alive in your heart.
I'll never wander out of your sight
I'm the brightest star on a summer night.
I'll never be beyond your reach
I'm the the warm moist sand on the starlit beach
I'm the colorful leaves when fall comes around
and the pure white snow that blankets the ground.
I'm the fragrant flowers of which you're fond,
The cool clear water in a quiet pond.
I'm the first bright blossom you see in spring,
The first warm raindrop that April will bring
I'm the first ray of light in the sun's morning shine
and the face you see in the moon is mine.
When you start thinking there's no one to love you,
talk to me through the Lord above you.
I'll whisper my answer through the leaves on trees,
and you'll feel my presence in the soft summer breeze.
I'm the hot salty tears that flow when you weep
and the beautiful dreams that come while you sleep.
I'm the smile you see on a baby's face.
Just look for me, friend, I'm everyplace:
