"Leland's Kelly Rose" 2/2000-5/30/2008

Kelly, affectionately known as Kell-Belle and other various pet names; our beloved Pomeranian has gone to be with her friends in heaven.

Be at peace Kelly, play in green fields for eternity without pain.

Prayers are with you Jim.

I say pets are pets but when one leaves, my true feelings show.

They are with us but for a moment it seems and as I have found though...memories of them stay with us for a lifetime.

I find myself calling the new puppy by our other dog's name.

Hold her memories in your heart and know that your not alone in the feelings you may be having.

I know how it feels Jimmy. I had to put down "Dude", a Dalmation/Retriever that I had for 14 years. I cried like a baby. I still miss him....

Sorry to hear about your friend Jimmy. We do grow close to our pets. They love us with true unconditional love.

I am praying for you.

I identify with your sadness. I've had pets all my life and the one loss that hurt the most was Smokey, our 110lb. chow/lab who looked like a black bear cub. He had bad hips and was in so much pain that he looked at me with eyes filled with pain every time he went to the back door, knowing he had to go down steps to go out and do his business. It broke my heart.


And people say they are just animals.

God Bless,
Judy

I know too well the pain. Today marks 1 year since I lost my 5 year old pitbull mix to liver failure.

Thanks, I'm alright. Just a lot has happened, and it kind of flooded me for the moment. God has been God, I have been me; sober.

Sweetest thing my eyes ever beheld. If men are never taller than when they are on their knees, a child (suffer the little children to come to me-for theirs is the Kingdom of God); is a giant among men.
