In Loving Memory

My sweet Snow, 🩵🐾 Nearly 12 years with you, yet forever would never have been enough. You were my son, my greatest blessing, my comfort through life’s darkest days, and the little soul who saved me. Being your mama was one of the greatest honors of my life. I kept my promise to protect you, even when it meant breaking my own heart. If love could have saved you, you would have lived forever. Thank you for choosing me and giving me a love that even death can never take away. Forever my baby. Forever my hero. Forever your Mama. 🩵🐾

Samson James you stole my heart. You were my soul pet. 2 years was not enough time with you. You were my big head. My big goofy dog but also the sweetest most gentle boy ever. I hope you are running along side Delilah. Both of you healthy and cancer free. I love you and miss you so so much my. I can't wait until I get to see you and all my other fur babies again. Run free my sweet boy.

In Loving Memory of Lana — our loyal guardian, marriage arbiter, and cherished dog-ter. Equal parts sweet companion and delightfully grumpy baddest bitch, Lana held a nearly zero-tolerance policy for strangers, tall people, and friendly golden retrievers. Yet to her parents, her devotion was absolute. She anticipated our every need, whether greeting approved guests with a welcome shoe or knowing to greet us at the door as she heard the the exact reverse-gear beeping of our car arriving home. Her heroics were unmatched, even if her skills weren't—like when she bravely leaped into the lake to "save" Dad, forcing us to save her instead. A warrior who beat cancer and amputation without a single complaint, Lana lived with unwavering spirit in her devotion to her guardians. Though her body grew tired, her mind was still sharp and loving presence remained until her peaceful final moments. We are forever grateful for the years with our sweet, spicy girl. She will be deeply missed and will be remembered always.

All you ever wanted was love All I ever wanted was more time Even when we didn't have much You stayed by my side We grow up together I don't know why Dogs in our twenties can't live our whole lives -Dan + Shay

Pemby is the reason "Cat Mom" is my whole personality. He had my heart ever since the first time he climbed into my lap, curled up, and fell asleep. Pemby is my soulmate and I believe we will be reunited someday. Until then, I mourn the loss of our sweet boy.

Gwitchy you were such a sweet good boy. I know your sister Pixel will miss you, as will I, your Mommy. I know you'll find Mooey on the other side, I know you were missing him when he left. You loved greatly and will be loved and missed forever in all universes.

Dear Lola, You were loved more than words could ever express, and you are missed more than you could ever know; especially by your Momma and Christopher. Thank you for fourteen beautiful years of unconditional love, laughter, companionship, and memories that I will carry in my heart forever. You were my baby, my best friend, and one of the greatest blessings of my life. I would choose you a thousand times over. Until we meet again in Heaven, my sweet Lola. I will love you forever. Love, Your Momma ❤️

Inga was our first 'fur' child. We adopted her about 6 months after marriage and instantly fell in love. She was a jet black standard schnauzer that was ALL schnauzer, the barking and the stubbornness. We always joked that everything had to be done her way. Even once we got a couple other fur babies it was obvious that Inga was the one in charge. She led the pack with grace, and was always there to 'catch' any dropped food. She had many many nicknames but Wiggle-Butt was probably the most commonly used one by family and friends. She lived a long fulfilling life, even traveling all the way from Texas to Fairbanks Alaska by car over a 3 month road trip. Our dogs only know the world we show them, and Inga saw a lot.

Leo, you were the best and sweetest puppy. A lover of all things food, long walks, and terrorizing the neighborhood dogs, you filled our hearts with such joy. We miss you every single day and are so grateful to have been your family. Rest easy puppy. I hope you’re eating all the pup cups and running with all the other puppies! We love you, Leo🐾
