The Rainbow Bridge

Just this side of heaven is a place called Rainbow Bridge.

When an animal dies that has been especially close to someone here, that pet goes to Rainbow Bridge. There are meadows and hills for all of our special friends so they can run and play together. There is plenty of food, water and sunshine, and our friends are warm and comfortable.

All the animals who had been ill and old are restored to health and vigor. Those who were hurt or maimed are made whole and strong again, just as we remember them in our dreams of days and times gone by. The animals are happy and content, except for one small thing; they each miss someone very special to them, who had to be left behind.

They all run and play together, but the day comes when one suddenly stops and looks into the distance. His bright eyes are intent. His eager body quivers. Suddenly he begins to run from the group, flying over the green grass, his legs carrying him faster and faster.

You have been spotted, and when you and your special friend finally meet, you cling together in joyous reunion, never to be parted again. The happy kisses rain upon your face; your hands again caress the beloved head, and you look once more into the trusting eyes of your pet, so long gone from your life but never absent from your heart.

Then you cross Rainbow Bridge together....

The sadness my heart is now feeling can't compare to all the joy my baby brought to my life during the past 15 years.  She was so much more than just a pet, Lucy was family, my baby.  Thanks for all the support and hugs from friends, family and co-workers.

Our little girl Tulip has returned to pure Spirit.  She was 16 years old, a wonderful cat and our close friend.  We love you, little one, and will miss you.

"Lambie" Lambchop Berry

Our precious little blessing was released from our arms, and his pain, on Monday, May 25, 2009.  He suffered greatly at the hands of puppy mill owners for many years, but God guided him to us.  When he came to us he was in such a sad, fearful state; but together we healed and for the next five years we were all taught great lessons of love and trust.  We look toward that wonderful day when we will be together and with great joy we will hold your tender body in our arms, feel the softness of your fur, gaze into your gentle eyes and feel the warmth of your loving heart again.  You will be so sadly missed, and my little lamb know that you are so greatly loved forever and ever.

Your passing was such a shock.
We'll always remember how you lived your life with such unending joy. 
Everyone who met you was touched by your loving spirit.
