GOOD NIGHT DEAR FRIEND
The time has come for you to take a journey of your own,
And I must see through all my tears that God has called you home.
Through sadness fills my heart today and many days to come,
I know that you are now at rest in God's eternal love.
You were to me much more than friend of any human kind,
The joy and happiness we shared was more than most will find.
A special place within my heart for you will always be,
A place of joy and love for you, in sweet fond memory,
Perhaps that place within my heart that is for you today,
Will one day grow to fill my heart and take my grief away.

Well, Tasha ... another month that you are no longer here. Time is going by so fast but it seems like only yesterday you were still with us. I can't believe that in a week's time you will have been gone 3 months. I know you are just waiting until mom and dad get around to joining you at the Bridge and we will be there when it's our time.
We still miss you ... I know that you're saying "and how could you not?" as you were our whole life. Max is doing his job in keeping us busy with his antics ... he's still a child and is acting like one. LOL
You have a good day playing with all your friends up there. And tell Shasta to send his mommy a special sign. Can you do that for me?
Love,
Mom & Dad

What a great idea!!!
Oh Tasha ... what a lucky furbaby you are!!! Ginny has added a photo album option to the residency pages of all of your friends!!! All of us parents are simply thrilled with what she's done for all the furbabies!!
Now everyone can see all the pictures I have of you and the other furbabies!!!
Spread the word so all your friends can send signs to their parents on this new addition???
We love you ... will always love you ... and will never forget you ... until we all meet again ...
Love,
Mom and Dad

A poem from a friend
I'm putting this lovely poem here as I know people come visit and I thought maybe others would enjoy it. It is a tear jerker (for me anyways). All your feelings about "should I do it now?" or "should I wait?" are perfectly normal.
I was going to talk to you about our troll but you already know everything that happened so I have decided not to go into the details. If her furbaby is really over the Bridge, say "hi" for me. You know which one I'm talking about.
MAY I GO NOW?
May I go now?
Do you think the time is right?
May I say goodbye to pain filled days
and endless lonely nights?
I've lived my life and done my best,
an example tried to be.
So can I take that step beyond
and set my spirit free?
I didn't want to go at first,
I fought with all my might.
But something seems to draw me now,
to a warm and loving light.
I want to go, I really do.
It's difficult to stay.
But I will try as best I can
to live just one more day.
To give you time to care for me
and share your love and fears.
I know you’re sad and afraid,
because I see your tears.
I'll not be far, I promise that,
and hope you'll always know
that my spirit will be close to you
wherever you may go.
Thank you so for loving me.
You know I love you too.
That's why it's hard to say good-bye
and end this life with you.
So hold me now just one more time
and let me hear you say,
because you care so much for me,
you'll let me go today.

Thought I'd pass this one one
This was posted from a dear friend and I just thought there might be someone out there who has lost a furbaby and could "use" it at this time. Here's what she posted:
Dear Forum Moms, I received this on Mother's Day, 2004, just 12 weeks after losing my Buddy. It helped me then, and I hope it will help someone else now. Happy Mother's Day to everyone who has ever been a mom to a best friend. Susie ~~~~~
MOTHER’S DAY MESSAGE FROM THE BRIDGE:
Hi Moms We had to take time out from my busy day to wish you a very happy mothers day. Even though we are not with you, we really are. We are never far from your side no matter where you go. You see our spirit lives on in your heart and in your memories of me. We see everything you do and we watch over you day and night. We love you so very much. We know how hard it was for you when we had to leave, but we had to go. Our time on earth was complete and God was calling us home again. We were sent to you for a reason, I know the reason, God knows the reason, but maybe at this point in time you don’t quite understand why we where taken from you and now we are gone. In time you will know. We promise. Some of us were old and tired and had to travel the Bridge so we could be young and with out pain once more. Surely you did not want us to suffer any longer. Some of our moms had to make the decision to bring us to the vet and help us cross the bridge. Please believe us you did nothing wrong. We thank you for this gift that you and the doctors have to end our sufferings and to bring us to peace in God’s glorious Heaven. Some of us had accidents that took us from you abruptly. But we did not suffer. We were lovingly brought to heaven by beautiful angels. It is so beautiful here we never want to leave. Not that we do not love you, but you will see when you get here what we are talking about. Some of us were young, but our time was spent on earth. We had to go Moms, it was not our choice but God’s. Remember we are all God’s creatures and when He called us home we had to leave you. Please do not cry for us, be happy that we are happy. It is a glorious place, we promise. We are cared for and loved so much. Everyone gets along great and we all gather round when a new fur baby comes to us. We show them the way and help them adjust to it up here. Well, Moms, we need to go now, but remember we love you so very much and we are always at your side. So when you need to talk to us, look upward into the sky and we will be smiling down on you. We are always with you, Love forever, Your Precious Furchildren ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ =^..^= =^..^= Susie Squillions =^..^= =^..^= Tabbytown Momcat “Heaven and earth are threads from one loom.” ~ Shaker Proverb Please visit Buddy’s RainbowsBridge residency: http://www.rainbowsbridge.com/residents/Buddy128/resident.HTM

Can you find her?
Oh Tasha ... we, at the forum, received very sad news today. It seems that
Rose, one of our "friends" could not find a reason to continue her life without her precious furbaby Sam who left for the bridge February 21st. I know you must have met Sam by now. He crossed the bridge the same time TT did. Were you with everyone when they welcomed Rose as she crossed the bridge?
Did you see your dad the other night? He was watching you playing with your friend in his dream. He saw the green grass and pretty flowers and told me you were having so much fun running and chasing your buddy!
Play nice, Tasha! Have fun. Enjoy yourself ... we miss you so much. And we still cry for our loss.
Love,
Mom
