Goodbye is the Hardest Word

Jacob "Jakey" Christians
March 2006 - January 2023
Our Bestest Boy 
 
 
Until We Meet Again
  
Goodbye is so hard to say
But I'm with Dory, and we're off to play.
No more pain, and back to being smart,
Do I want to snuggle? You bet, Arty!
  
So don't cry Mama and don't worry Daddy,
I'll miss you both, but I'll be happy.
Because on this side of the Bridge with Dory,
I'm ready to write a whole new story.
 
We'll be back Friday
 
Thanks so much to Zoolatry for the loving badges

  7. We are sorry for your loss of a lovely family member. But one so loved, their essence, the bit that is truly them deep within and with form, will travel on to another being. Then, at some point, you will meet again. Till then, cherish the memories and cry in joy not sadness.
    Purrs to you all.
    ERin & Mrs H.

  26. I didn't know Jakey, but clearly he was loved and will be missed. Seventeen is a long life for a dog, but it's never long enough. When you meet him again, you will have much longer together... Godspeed, Jakey.
