| In Green Pastures,
under the lovingly protective care of Our Heavenly Father, |
|
the souls of our dearly departed animal
companions now happily dwell forevermore. |
|
It remains for us, their human family and
friends, to take comfort in our abiding faith that |
|
they have not passed away, but have only
ventured forth and will be there to welcome us. |
| As
all God's children someday must, we too shall leave behind this mortal
existence |
| to discover the
supernal beauty, joyous bliss and everlasting peace of God's Green
Pastures. |

| The Lord is my shepherd; I shall not want. |
| He
maketh me to lie down in Green Pastures: |
| He
leadeth me beside the still waters. |
| He
restoreth my soul: |
| He
leadeth me in the paths of righteousness for His name's sake. |
| Yea,
though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, |
| I
will fear no evil: for Thou art with me; |
| Thy
rod and Thy staff they comfort me. |
| Thou
preparest a table before me in the presence of mine enemies: |
| Thou
anointest my head with oil; my cup runneth over. |
|
Surely goodness and mercy shall follow me all the days of my life: |
| and I will dwell
in the house of the Lord for ever. |

|
| Oh Danny boy, the
pipes, the pipes are calling |
| From glen to glen,
and down the mountain side |
| The summer's gone,
and all the leaves are falling |
| 'Tis you, 'tis you
must go and I must bide. |
| But come ye back when
summer's in the meadow |
| Or when the valley's
hushed and white with snow |
| 'Tis I'll be here in
sunshine or in shadow |
| Oh Danny boy, oh
Danny boy, I love you so. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
And if you
come, when all the flowers are dying |
|
And I am dead, as dead I well may be |
|
You'll come and find the place where I am lying |
|
And kneel and say an "Ave" there for me. |
|
And I shall
hear, tho' soft you tread above me |
|
And all my dreams will warm and sweeter be |
|
If you'll not fail to tell me that you love me |
|
I'll simply sleep in peace until you come to me. |

Laika
Leigh |
| |
|
Laika
was and is the doggy love of my
life. She was only a couple of weeks old the first time I
saw her in October, 1993. I had to wait another month
before I could bring her home. She was so smart and so
loving... she was more like a human child than a pet. On
the morning of January 17, 1994, at about 4:15 a.m., Laika (who
was 4 months old at the time) came into my bedroom and woke me
up. I thought she needed to go potty, so I got up, dressed
and took her outside. Minutes later the devastating
Northridge earthquake struck. Laika never did need to go
potty... she woke me up to warn me of the coming quake.
She lived a long and happy life until she passed away in
December 2007. I sincerely believe that when my turn comes
to cross over into the next life, Laika will be there waiting to
welcome me. Good girl, Laika! |

Toby Momsen |

|
Toby
was an angel when he walked among us and, on July 7, 2002, when
God called him home, he became an angel in Heaven whose
beautiful and loving spirit will live on forever in the hearts
of those of us who loved him so very dearly. May God bless
and keep our beloved little friend Toby forever and evermore.
Amen. |

Titan Kogan |
| |
Titan was so
small when his new family first brought him home at 8 weeks old
that his new mom, Lilia, gave him his moniker with
tongue-in-cheek. This wonderful Golden Retriever soon grew
into his noble name. He eventually weighed more than 100
lbs. - most of which was heart. Titan was very loving to
everyone he ever met... except that naughty rattlesnake who bit
his nose when he was a puppy. Titan survived - the
rattlesnake didn't! |

Sly Robak |
| |
Sly
was always a happy little boy. He never asked for anything
more than a little pat on the head. That's all it took to
set his tail a-waggin'. Sly was the only male in his
family... there were 3 girls, too (Nellie, Tiffy & Sandy).
He constantly looked after and took very good care of them.
When Nellie passed away in late 2003, it broke Sly's little
heart. He followed her to Heaven on January 19, 2004.
Rest in peace, Sly. We'll always love you. |

The Lord bless you and keep you.
May He show His face to you and have mercy.
May He turn His countenance to you and give you peace.
The Lord bless you! |
