I am so sorry.

Just this side of heaven is a place called Rainbow Bridge.

When an animal dies that has been especially close to someone here, that pet goes to Rainbow Bridge. There are meadows and hills for all of our special friends so they can run and play together. There is plenty of food, water and sunshine, and our friends are warm and comfortable.
All the animals who had been ill and old are restored to health and vigor. Those who were hurt or maimed are made whole and strong again, just as we remember them in our dreams of days and times gone by. The animals are happy and content, except for one small thing; they each miss someone very special to them, who had to be left behind.

They all run and play together, but the day comes when one suddenly stops and looks into the distance. His bright eyes are intent. His eager body quivers. Suddenly he begins to run from the group, flying over the green grass, his legs carrying him faster and faster.

You have been spotted, and when you and your special friend finally meet, you cling together in joyous reunion, never to be parted again. The happy kisses rain upon your face; your hands again caress the beloved head, and you look once more into the trusting eyes of your pet, so long gone from your life but never absent from your heart.

Then you cross Rainbow Bridge together....

To: Eaker

Thank you very much Eaker. That was kind of you.

I know she is meeting my sister who has her last dog Stoney with her. Tara knew Stoney pretty well. She also will have Yanto, the old dog who died only a week after that pix shown with him was taken. And of course Yanto and my sis knew my beloved Shana very well, and Tara can finally meet that mythical creature, who will be the benevolent boss! LOL All Shepherds.

Oh, and maybe Tara can meet my mythical creature of a cat, Ashley. And in Heaven I think Tara will tone down her small-animal problems and get a single pointed whack from Ashley when she pushes his very patient gentlemanly self too far.

God bless all our animals!
