In Loving Memory

MILO Our Golden King Our Pride and Joy Our most Loyal Boy We had you for 4,398 days…… He fell asleep…… with a soul completely at peace…. Today was not just another day. It was the day - the final chapter of a beautiful, loyal, and unforgettable story that spanned countless walks, rolls in the grass, mischievous zoomies, endless cuddles and kisses, inspections of neighborhood garages, and PURE AND ENDLESS LOVE. Our boy, our gently golden retriever, our shadow for 12,5 years, took his last nap in my arms…. Before he closed his hazelnut brown eyes he had one of his favorite treats: honey… A simple gesture, but for him it meant everything… he felt heard, remembered and so deeply loved…. He gave his mama a final lick on her hand… his mama, the one person he was always concerned about and wouldn’t let out of his sight at home, at walks…… His mama, his absolutely everything… He didn’t go scared. He didn’t go alone. He went wrapped in the arms of his mama …. with my fingers going through his golden thick fur… the way he liked it… I whispered everything I ever wanted to say….. His soulful eyes are closed now That we will miss this golden boy is an understatement…. Such a gentle lion… he never barked… he never was sad…. He always smiled and enjoyed life …. our goofy and happy boy… He was everyone’s friend, loved and deeply cared for by the whole neighborhood. His tail was always wagging… He loved to welcome us home with a large towel in his mouth, making funny noises while doing his dance between our legs, guiding us to the big bed to get all the cuddles he could possibly get. He wouldn’t go to sleep without his mama’s T-shirt to lay his head on…. Yes, that is unconditional love! MILO WAS TRULY THE BEST OF THE BEST! THERE IS NO MORE LOYAL FRIEND. THE LOVE HE HAD CANNOT EVEN BE CAPTURED IN WORDS! My boy, go find your sister Emily now… you missed her so much after her passing a couple of months ago. Find her, protect her as you used to do… and watch over all of us home… You are my guardian angel now! I love you so immensely much ❤️ Every moment I had with you lives in me and will be treasured forever ❤️ But if you want to come back as a new puppy, we will welcome you with open arms YOUR MAMA

Sammy came into our lives in 2015 as a rescue of approximate 5 years of age at the time. He was our "Little Prince". He was the center of our world, a great companion that will be forever missed. We are so glad he came into our lives.

To our sweet girl Lilly who brought so much love and laugher into our lives. She will be forever missed and loved.

My sweet girl, you will be so missed and continuously loved.

🕊️ Tribute for my Ku’uipo My Sweetheart, My Ku’uipo You came into my life with angel eyes and velvet fur, a tiny king with a lion’s mane and a heart bigger than the sky. You chose me. And from that moment on, we belonged to each other. You spoke in blinkies, in gentle purrs against my chest, In the quiet comfort of just being near. I carried you like a baby, your favorite place to be — safe in my arms, your head near my heart, where our heartbeats felt like one. You smelled like cookies and sunshine, and your soft fur was my peace on the hardest days. At night we slept touching, paw in hand, so you would always know your mama was right there. You were my joy, my comfort, my soul cat, my heartbeat in fur. And when the time came for you to rest, I held you close just like always —wrapped in love, surrounded by my heart. We fought together, my brave boy, but love sometimes means letting go through tears. Now you run free, young and strong again, over the Rainbow Bridge — but you took a piece of me with you. Until I hold you in my arms again, my sweet Ku’uipo, love lives on between every heartbeat. ❤️🐾

We love and miss you dearly! I know you’re having a blast in heaven with your brother and uncle Daniel!

The goodest boy, who always had his tail wagging and knew no stranger.

I met Clarity, a Siberian Husky, on February 19, 2020. My granddaughter came across her while we were wandering through the Southwest Washington Humane Society in Vancouver. At the time, I had been living in Portland, Oregon for about a year, after spending most of my adult life in the Colorado mountains of the Roaring Fork Valley. Clarity made that transition remarkably easier for me. She was named after a mantra I have tried to live by: “In search of clarity and love in my heart.” My hope is that her story can help remind us all of the need for clarity, and of the deep connections that foster healing and well-being. Clarity was the sweetest dog, even through osteosarcoma, the malignant bone tumor that ultimately took her leg on May 20, 2025, after a month of struggling with the effects of the disease. Through it all, she remained the same precious companion to me and a gentle friend to everyone who knew her. Here’s to Clarity, and to the resiliency, love, and lessons we shared over these past six years. Clarity, give Alli a big kiss for me. You now join her in my heart forever. 🐾

Our sweet boy, you are no longer in pain. I will miss you until we meet again.

Tom had a little body but a big personality (as dachshunds do) and there is a hole in a hearts with him gone. We find some peace knowing he is not in any pain or discomfort anymore but we already miss him dearly. I hope you found an unlimited supply of hamburgers and toys that you can tear up to get the squeaker out over the rainbow bridge, little man. You’ll be in our hearts forever.
