TOBERMORY (TOBY) LECOMPTE
JUNE 5, 1986 - SEPTEMBER 05, 2002
~Our Purrs are coming mewr way-
Lord take this pet if it be your will
Guide her to Heaven where she'll be at home
With no more aches and no more pains.
Hear our humble prayer, O GOD,
We entreat for them all
Make us, ourselves,
Toby has lived a full life,
A poem of Comfort
Do not hurry as you walk with grief
Be not disturbed
to grant mew strength~
Praying the Great Cat Spirit will tenderly
guide and bless you~
with all the things He knows you need~
today, tomorrow and always~
She's so young and small and she's so ill
Don't let her suffer we ask you please
Take this little soul and set our mind at ease.
Where with all the other animals ~
She can play and roam.
Playing all day up in the meadows above;
Cradled in YOUR arms covered with YOUR love.
She'll play in bright sunshine, no more rain
WE'LL see her again; we know we will
So take her LORD if it be your will!
John Quealy
for our friends, the animals ~
especially for those who are suffering:
for any that are lost or deserted
or frightened or hungrey.
Thy mercy and pity,
and for those who deal with them,
we ask a heart of compassion
and gentle hands and kindly words.
to be true friends to animals
and to share the blessings
of the merciful.

Toby joins her human daddy
Glenn at the Rainbow Bridge..
Toby is sadly missed by her
siblings, Bootsie & Cuddles
and her pet canary, Santana.
She leaves behind her meowmie Christine
& brofurs Daryl & Brian Shilling.
It does not help the journey.
Walk slowly, pausing often.
Do not hurry as you walk with grief
Be not disturbed by memories that come unbidden.
Swiftly forgive, and the Spirit
Speak for you unspoken words;
resolve the unfinished conversation.
Be gentle with the one who walks with grief
If it is you, be gently with yourself.
Swiftly forgive, walk slowly, pausing often.
Take time,
Be gentle as you walk with grief.
