For a pet in Heaven
To have loved and then said farewell,
is better than to have never loved at all.
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 others 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 and no regrets and no aging.
We await the arrival of our lifelong companions
and know that togetherness is forever. You live in
our hearts as we do in yours. 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.
My dearest sweet Sassy was my best friend,
companion and baby. She was a Eskie and was
born April 14, 1996 and passed away
May 25, 2000. She had given birth to 4 litters
of pups and she was a excellent mother to them all.
She enjoyed running and playing so much that I
could not keep her alive knowing she would never be able to again.
She was injured by a child riding a bike and her forearm got
caught in the chain and broke it.
My Dear sweet Sassy,
I have your pup Krystal who looks just like you
to help me out now...
But she isn't you and that I will always regret...
I love you Sassy...
Always and forever
I will miss your running and playing with your pups.
You sleeping beside me every night,
I miss you sitting at my feet while I'm on the computer,
your typing on the keyboard (when you weren't suppose to)
Sharing my meals with you, and holding you at night.
But the one thing I will miss the most is your
unconditional love that I felt...
I hope there are angels surrounding you,
You deserve them the most...
Know that in my heart that I will always remember you
and cherish every second of every day we had together.
Thank you for being my baby.
Until we meet again in heaven,
know that I love you with all my heart
and that I miss you more than you know.
With All My Love,
Mom
