In Loving Memory

Harley will forever be in our 💕 Love you baby girl.

My sweet girl Vixen, I will miss you dearly and you’ll always be in my heart. Our little family has lost a big part of it and it just doesn’t feel the same without you here. I will miss waking up to your loud purrs while you crawl up in bed ready for breakfast. I’ll miss everything about your silly and cute self, there’s just so much to love and remember about you. I hope you rest easy and were happy and knew you were loved.

you were the best boy! Miss you

Willie- you were more than just a dog, you were my best friend and soulmate. You rescued me and I will be forever grateful. Miss you and love you always.

Tully , you were the last of 3 dogs we owned. Two beautiful goldens, then you came into our lives. You were quiet, gentle , and sweet. You loved everyone, and they couldn't help petting you. Of course there were those at the park who had to give a treat, because you blocked their path waiting patiently. All of our pets were hard to lose, your passing crushed us. However you coming into our lives gave us purpose everyday for 10 years, even when things were tough.. Thank you my king, we love you!

Smokey Jo was our beloved and treasured girl! She was so sweet and patient when our kids were little and as they grew! She loved walking with them, chasing and playing, and most of all she loved to SNARF!! She would snarf and turn in circles and burrow a bed for herself, get all comfy, then all 4 legs went out as she slept! She would SNARF in the Snow, Sand, Grass, Blankets, and she loved helping GMAN build forts and snow caves!

In memory of my wonderful boy, my big, handsome, friendly orange tabby, polydactyl male, soul cat. And to all of us who have had to say goodbye to our beloved pets. Ziggy was super special to me. This will be a long road to recovery.

Noly Poly….My heart dog, my soul. I am so grateful I was able to learn from you for the last several years.

We’re going to miss you, grumpy old man cat. You were there for the kids their entire lives and with me my whole adult life. You loved giving head bumps and loved your snuggles and neck scratches even more. We’re devastated you had to go, but hope we’ll see you again one day. We love and miss you every day, Bootsy Boy. Til we meet again 🐾

Tucker, I have no words that suffice. I have no words. But gratitude. January 29th, 2026 is the new birthday of eternal memorial in your corporeal honor. I can't wait to get you back after I witness your transformation. I have never in my life experienced pain as deep and sharp as this and the hours and days that led to that day were far worse than I feared: and I was terrified of that day. I'm still so scared of losing you. I feel him. I talk to you and I will call to you everyday. I need your help. I can't do any of this without you. You will be my moral guide. My task is to live as you would have me and to honor the love I cannot repay because your dedication and devotion was inhuman. It was my honor to care for you in those deteriorating years with Degenerative Myopathy. And I only wish I could have done more, been more, and I was able to give you the devotion and love you gave me. I can't. I can't be you. That's why your loss is like I've lost something that's now extinct. You were more than a parent to me. What's become clear is that you gave me my life. When I first left military service I was a broken boy. You made me a man and I have to think you believe I am ready to carry on and take care of your little sister, my daughter, your mom, my wife, your sister, my junior pack mate dog (promoted to senior) - who I will cherish. I learn from my mistakes minor and major with her to honor you. I will give her the love, attention, and to help her be and feel like the dog that I know you want for her. We won't give up on anyone, and I won't give up on you. You will come home with me after the next ritual and continue our relationship. A deeper one. That doesn't need corporeal presence but spiritual. I love you so much, Tucker, and your loss is a devastation. We love you. I will live with the pain of your loss and the love of our life together for the rest of my days. I will honor you.
