In Loving Memory

Our beloved Yako. Our baby boy, friend, companion, and guardian of our family and home. We love you my baby boy. You are deeply missed and will never be forgotten.

Boscoe, thank you for being the best fur baby ever. As you got older you were still everyone’s baby. You were the sweetest ever boy. There wasn’t anyone who ever met you and didn’t instantly fall in love with you.

Buttons was everything a calico cat should be. She was spunky, sweet, mischievous, funny, and loving. She was an avid hunter in her youth and often brought us "gifts." She eventually learned to love her new baby human brothers. She wasn't a fan of dogs but our sweet Mabel never gave up hope that one day they would be friends.

I love you so much Henley, and I think of you every single day. You should still be here with me.

We miss you pretty girl 💓

We will miss you sweet girl - always first at the food bowl. There is an empty bowl now where you once were and an empty place in our home.

Kennedy was truly my heart and my baby girl. Throughout her long life, she had been there for me through so many ups and downs, she was the only constant in my life. She loved smelling flowers on walks, bringing sticks home from the park, but her absolutely favorite thing to do was swimming. She always looked like a little otter in the water and she always had the time of her life in creeks, ponds, rivers, and lakes.

12 years just isn’t enough to love something so much! Jack was the dog who defied all the odds. He showed up at our house after having been dumped in our neighborhood. My kids instantly fell in love with him, and we took him in. He was the sweetest, wildest, most loyal dog you would ever meet. If he loved you, he loved you for life, but if he didn’t like you, you knew that! There weren’t a lot of people he did like, so you were special if he did like you. He got me through both kids leaving to go to college. He definitely was Jahleh’s boy, but once she left, he quickly became my companion. Every time Jay came home from college, he was so excited to see her. I’m so glad she saw him a few weeks ago when she was home on her fall break. In his last moments, I was able to make a video and say her name and his little ears perked up. Our house won’t be the same without those little pitter patter steps, him barking at everything he hears, and making sure to greet each person at the door with a little little growl and bark. I will miss him forever. 🐾 🐾

To my special boy. My best friend, favorite trail running partner and biggest protector. We will love and cherish you always.

Two hundred thirty one thousand and five hundred sixty minutes have passed since Violet parted from my life so absolutely. My heart hurts so much knowing I will never see her again in this lifetime. I wish more than anything that I could hold her forever, and have her in my life always. My sweet Violet's memory will always live with me, but it breaks my heart that that's the only place she can be anymore. All of our memories are so fresh on my mind. She will always be my closest, most cherished companion and friend. I love her more than anything. I was never more proud of anything in my life than to have Violet, to be hers, and for her to be mine. She was really my baby.
