In Loving Memory

Lucy is loved and will be missed terribly

Ziggy was my soul cat. Words can’t even begin to scratch the surface of how amazing her soul was. For the past 17 years, she’s been my best friend, favorite copilot, and light. I was so lucky to love her in this life and I know I’ll find her again in the next. RIP Ziggymonster 🤍 Love you forever 🤍

In Loving Memory of Jack My heart is broken. On July 3, I said goodbye to my beloved greyhound, Jack...my gentle shadow, my calm in the chaos, my very best boy for nearly twelve years. Jack was more than a pet. He was my anchor. He had this quiet, intuitive way of showing up just when I needed him, with a soft nudge of his nose, a warm body tucked beside me on the couch, or those steady eyes that seemed to understand everything without needing words. I adopted Jack in September 2012, just a week after his second birthday. I had no idea then how he’d change my life. Because of him, I began volunteering with greyhound rescue and eventually adopted a second retired racer, Jilly. Jack introduced me to a whole world I wouldn’t have found without him...a community, a calling, a deep love for this incredible breed. He was wise, sensitive, funny, and way more popular than I’ll ever be. People lit up when they saw him, whether we were out walking in the neighborhood or visiting friends or hosting guests at home. He had this quiet, regal presence that was part gentle old soul, part silly best friend. He was the kind of dog who made you feel like everything might just be okay. Jack was Home. Even after I bought a home with a backyard he loved, Jack still insisted on his daily walks. That was our time. And his internal clock? Flawless. No one campaigned harder for a 5:30 p.m. dinner than Jack. He'd let you know if you were even a minute late lol. Losing him would’ve been heartbreaking under any circumstances… but this summer, as I also grieve the loss of my dad, the absence feels especially heavy. Jack was my day-to-day comfort, my grounding presence. And now, both of them are gone. I miss him fiercely. I miss his eyes, his patience, the sound of his paws, his smell, the way he watched the world from the window like it was his job. I miss being his person. Jack was loved beyond measure. He will always be my good boy.

Rusty Roodle Doodle, we love you so much and are beyond blessed that you chose us to be your humans for the 14 years you were here. Marley is waiting for you (with a full bag of fresh bread) on the other side of the rainbow bridge. We will love you forever sweet boy❤️

Liza was a flat coated retriever who was adopted from the pound. She was my best friend. She ran every morning for many years. She enjoyed late night walks with her dad and just being around our family. She enjoyed rolling on her back for rubs. She has left our family with an empty, lost feeling but I know she was exhausted and confused with neurological problems. Our family will make peace with our loss and remember her for years to come. We love you sweet Liza Lou Lou.

My little man crossed rainbow bridge yesterday. He went to sleep in my arms which was his favorite be.

Jethro was the sweetest boy ever! He lived a long and happy life full of love and quirkiness ❤️

My dearest Blue, thank you for your endless love. You are and always will be my best friend. Rest easy little one.❤️

Our Purdy Boy Marino crossed over the Rainbow Bridge yesterday. He was more than a good dog, he was a Great Dog!! We loved him BIG and he loved us BIGGER and he will be missed.

Itsy Bitsy forever in our hearts and memories. You are so very missed.
