I've come to the end of the road,
And the sun has set for me.
I want no rites in a gloom-filled room,
Why cry for a soul set free!
Miss me a little, but not for long;
And not with your head bowed low.
Remember the love that we once shared,
For this is a journey we all must take,
It's all a part of the Master's plan
A step on the road to Home.
When you are lonely and sick of heart,
Go to the friends we know;
And bury your sorrows in doing good deeds,
Miss me, but let me go!

Cesar
Born February 2002
in Schertz, Texas
Passed over the
“Rainbow Bridge” on July 21, 2009
Cesar, you are our
very special little boy. We will never forget the years you stood by to
protect mama while she was unable to protect herself. For the thousands of
hours you spent by her side always faithful and guarding we will be forever
grateful. The love you and our grandson, Austin, shared will be forever
etched into our memories. Every conversation we have with him begins with
“can I come see Cesar”? So my little friend, until we meet again, rest in
peace and remember, you will always be loved and missed.

Alice and Austin

TANNER

Tanner, Lord of
the Manor, went peacefully to The Bridge on the evening of July 9, 2009,
leaving behind Jodi, his heart-broken Mom; and Gin, his Roomie. No doubt he's
doing what he loved best - posing for pictures, and digging for moles - in
that beautiful meadow at The Bridge. Tanner was a rescue Doberman who held
the banner high for Rescue, and he was the official poster-dog for not
cropping ears. His talents were many, and he was adored by all who knew
him.
He will be desperately missed.
Godspeed, Tanner
- till we meet again.

Go your own way,

confusion. Thank you for that and for your gentle kisses and subtle
acknowledgements. Those of us who got to know you were blessed to have our
lives touched by yours. We will meet again at the Bridge when the time is
right.
But for now, Rest in
Peace, sweet girl.

– My Heart
I didn’t want a dog
but you stole my heart & made me your own.
You taught me to smile
again.
You showed me how to
care for myself, as well as someone else again.
You made me happy for
the first time in a very long time!
I could not be where I
am today without you.
You were always by my
side, and always will be.
You never experienced
a bad day in your life and made sure I didn’t either!
I owe you my life and
I miss you dearly!
I will always have an
open window for you…with rabbit view!
You’ll always be my
guiding light.
Thank you for saving
my life!

- you wandered into our garage one day, starved, injured,
and scared. That was the last bad day of your
life. You healed (thanks to Dr. Howe and Dr. Reel),
grew and became our handsome little man. You slept
next to us every night, waited in your window for us to come
home and filled our lives with laughter and love. When
your time came, you died in Mom's arms. We miss you
every day little guy.

PARIS
To
Paris:
You were as elegant as your name. We had such a
short time to get to know you, but it was long enough to
know that you loved without reservation those whom were
kind to you. We did not have the opportunity
to love you long enough to turn the fears and
experiences of your past into distant and forgotten
memories. When children have setbacks in life
it takes patience, kindness, gentleness, understanding
and the willingness to spend quality time with them
in order to instill happiness and security again.
This philosophy goes for all of God's
creatures. We hope that our memorial message to
you will be read by others that may not know much
about animals needing rescue and shelter. May they
read these words and use them as the keys to open the
doors of their hearts and their homes.

Jack,
you magically appeared on our doorstep on that hot June
night, the very day we moved-in. Perhaps you appeared,
knowing that Buddy needed a best friend? While
having you deeply enriched our lives these past 2 years,
God must have other plans. We are all saddened by
your sudden death, especially Buddy who will always be
your best friend. Until we meet at the Rainbow Bridge:
Good bye Good Boy!

Raven.... "Raven
was so special and had such a difficult, short life.
She deserves to be remembered in this World, even though
she never knew the pleasure of her very own family.
It is a comfort to know that Nikki, Harley, and Ben,
from R&M Longneck Ranch in Texas, were at the
Rainbow Bridge to greet her, and that they are
frolicking with Raven now among the flowers in the green
meadows there."

"Baby Raven fought hard to stay alive and become a gorgeous
Great Dane, but pneumonia claimed her little body. Despite weeks of
constant care by her foster parents, Raven sadly crossed the Rainbow

missed."
