Memories from loving pet families
Ruby, our beautiful 12 year old yellow lab passed peacefully on February 16, 2024, at home. We will forever remember her joy of life in all her favorite activities until the end. We are deeply appreciative of her care received and love by her whole community. She had the best care from Dr. Lynde and staff at Animal Medical, end of life care by Forever Faithful Pet Crematory and endless affection from all our neighbors and friends.
The most hyper, loving, adventurous dog, I’ve ever met. He had my heart from the beginning until the end. He was my down, dog, ready to do anything at any time with me you love nature, he was excited to see everything he couldn’t get enough of it. he loved the snow eating it rolling around in it we would go hiking in the snow and to stay hydrated we would eat clean snow, strongest, strongest person in my life could always make me laugh. He was my companion, my love, my everything, my puppy storm he loved people and dogs. Anything else was food or a toy lol. When are the most stubbornness dogs I’ve met and weird which fit my personality just fine. He was my cuddle buddy, even though he liked stealing my side of the bed because he knew he could. He saw me through my dark times, and my good times so much love in life he will never be forgotten no dog, or anything can match him. He was my heart and is my heart. going through his cancer process he was so brave. He handled it so well. Through him, I learned how to forgive, love life to the fullest and see from a different perspective how to be braver through the hard times and never give up because he didn’t 100% a warrior. - Jennifer Snyder

Our Grace loved all people but was drawn to those who had disabilities or were in need of love and care. She had such a Welcoming soul and way about her with all dogs and humans. Very playful and energetic in her long life of running at parks almost daily. She loved rides in the suburban and many times with a carful of other dogs that needed walks when I was dog walking and pet sitting for 8 years. We adopted her from our UPS man Butch at 2 years old and fell in love with her gentle personality. She was the kind of dog that just was content and didn't show you signs that it was time for this or that, but was just at ease. She developed degenerative myopathy about nine months ago, and lost alot of use of her back legs. She was able to walk though for about 1/2 a mile, if you got her up. She showed us Grace and Compassion daily and she will Forever be remembered in our hearts and cherished as our sweet Gracie. She was the Best dog anyone could of asked for! WE LOVE YOU GRACIE and we will meet you again!!!! - Michele Kennedy
I just had to put down my 24 year old Calico Manx, named Mischief!! 😔 I also, had her since she was a 6 week old kitten and I was 5 years old of age myself. Its hard as, now both my beloved old kitties are gone that I grew up with. 🐾 I will NEVER forget Mischief!!! I named her this name for a reason because when she was younger she was quite mischievous, LOL. She was also a cuddler, that loved to be held like a baby. She was loving, caring, spirited, playful, and my best four - legged friend / guardian angel!!! Both of my kitties will NEVER be forgotten!! Fly high my kitties, until I see you again!! 💛 - Shantel Wheeler
My Boog, he was my everything! I remember the first day I met him, I knew he was mine. You know the saying, " you will feel a connection when you meet the right dog for you..", it's true, I absolutely loved my Boogeyman... He was the most amazing dog you could ever wish to have!!! My life will never be the same with him gone, he was so young, a beautiful 4 year old boy, I had him sense he was 3 weeks old!!... I love you Boog!!! You will always be by my side!!! And I can't wait till we see each other again!! - Shawna Johnson
Maggie (Midge) was the most sweetest, loving, snaggle toothed companion I could ever ask for. She got me through so much in her 15 years of life. Losing her was literally the hardest thing I have ever endured. I will forever hold her so dearly in my heart. - Dani Smith
Bailey changed who I was. Taught me how to love and be more patient. When we first got her I wanted to get rid of her. I don’t remember when it was but one day we were like peas and carrots. She was my shadow and comforted me when I was down. She loved being under my wife’s foot while she cooked. My life will not be the same without her. - Joey Kuchler
Where to start? They are SO many amazing memories of my wonderful furbaby, companion Baby! I owned Baby since she was 6 weeks old and I was just 5 years old myself! She was 23 years old when I had to have her put down. 23 years old!! That is a miracle and achievement in its self, wow! Baby was my companion, bestfriend, comforter, and most importantly my furbaby!! I miss her SO much!! Like I said we grew up together. She was my show cat for 6 years in a row at the Country Fair and won every year. She was the best in show, best of opposite sex, and sometimes she got most colorful. She was there to always comfort me in hard times and she was always the first one to greet me at the door! She was playful, fiesty, loving, compassionate, and oh so very strong!! She had a foot fetish LOL, where she would love to maul your feet and play with them! She was the best cat and companion anyone could ask for! I love you Baby!! Fly high my beautiful Baby, until we meet again one day at the Golden Gates!!! ❤ - Shantel Lewis
Keylo passed away suddenly on January 31st. He was my best friend. A pain in the butt at times but a happy mama's boy. He loved his kid Rylynn, hogging the bed, green beans, belly rubs and stealing toilet paper. I miss you always being in the way when I was trying to cook and clean. You were in our lives for 12 years, wish it would have been 12 more.
Beau, my soul mate and one of the biggest loves of my life. His loyalty and love were more than anyone deserved. I miss him so much it hurts!!! We love you Beau! - Kimberly Kunce
My beautiful girl Jilly was not only my service dog but she was my best friend. She went everywhere with me, and we liked to travel the United States. Jilly would come up to me everytime I got on the computer and start talking to me as if to say "You have been on the computer long enough take me for a walk". when ever she greeted someone it was an automatic tail wagging and butt wiggling moment, she loved people unconditionally. However, if you were mean to her once she would remember that and never again would you get any loving. I have had many large dogs growing up and they were all great but Jillian was the best. I feel so empty without her... - Brenda Anderson
