I stood beside your bed last night, I came to have a peep.
I could see that you were crying, you found it hard to sleep.
I whined to you softly as you brushed away a tear,
"It's me, I haven't left you, I'm well, I'm fine, I'm here."
I was close to you at breakfast, I watched you pour your tea,
You were thinking of the many times , your hand reached down to me.
I was with you at the shops today, your arms were getting sore.
I longed to take your parcels, I wish I could do more.
I was with you at my grave today. You tend it with such care.
I want to reassure you, that I'm not lying there.
I walked with you towards the house, as you fumbled for your key.
I gently put my paw on you, I smiled and said "It's me."
You looked so very tired, and sank into a chair.
I tried so hard to let you know, that I was standing there.
It's possible for me, to be so near you every day.
To say to you with certainty, "I never went away."
You sat there very quietly, then smiled, I think you knew.
In the stillness of that evening, I was close to you.
The day is over, I smile and watch you yawning.
And say "Goodnight, God bless, I'll see you in the morning."
And when the time is right for you to cross the brief divide,
I'll rush across to greet you, and we'll stand side-by-side.
I have so many things to show you, there is so much to see.
Be patient, live your journey out, then come home to be with me.

My Riley died tonight (12/28/09) and took my heart and soul with him.
Thank you Lord for letting me borrow him for almost 10 yrs. He was my very best friend.
Love, Kim

I will miss Phoebe's beauty and zest for life. She was a real cat; funny and independent, yet well mannered and affectionate in her cat way. Phoebe is survived by her lifelong sparring partner Freddy. We will see Phoebe again when we cross the Rainbow Bridge.
Love, Julie                      Jan. 2010

Nollaig was my best friend and constant companion for 12 1/2 yrs. and beloved pet of children Max and Isabel. She excelled in all dog sports from frisbee to flyball, enjoyed herding sheep, pigs and cats. She loved travel, swimming, hiking and camping and loved snuggling on the sofa and bed with her humans. She is so greatly loved and missed by her family and canine companion,Trance. May dog heaven be full of toys, treats and sheep. We will join you again one day Nollie. Love, Barbara      July 2, 2011
