Our Beloved Angels

Laddie.. September 21, 1997 - February 20, 2008 


It is with both the deep sadness and love that I feel for my friend Carol, who's precious dog, Laddie now resides at the Rainbow Bridge. My heart weeps for her loss.

The words that she wrote from her heart touched me deeply and I felt sharing them here on this memorial for Laddie was a gift I could give from my heart.

"No one can be more devastated than I...my darling boy..to be without you following me from room to room, seeing your things everywhere...I opened the refrigerator, and there were your string beans, your apples, your chicken...everywhere...your "bear head" is on the chair at the staircase..it still has your saliva, and it will be there always...the bread sticks you loved so much....


Laddie will be buried at 4p.m. on my birthday, Monday. He was born on my daughter, Nancy's birthday. He entered my body through a direct hit to my heart, from the first day, when I saw him and left him at the breeder's because he was so big...and the next day drove five extra hours(because there was an accident on the Thruway) with my son-in-law, to lift him into my arms and take him home."


Please join me in sending Carol healing prayers.

  Dear Carol, I wish I could say something to ease your pain.  What a beautiful baby Laddie was.  I hope you find much comfort and peace in knowing that he is not suffering and that he knew that he was greatly loved.
  
  With Love,

  Thank you for this beautiful Memorial for Laddie. My thoughts and prayers are with Carol, Jason ad Tyler.
  
  I felt like I knew Laddie personally...I have so many pictures of him. I want to thank Carol for sharing part of Laddie with me.
  
  I know how much Carol loved her Boy and, how hard this is for her. I pray that her loving memories of Laddie will comfort her and give her peace during this difficult time.

      Losing a beloved pet is so hard. My thoughts and prayers are with you. I think we all have at one time or another suffered as you are right now. Remember all the good times, remember the funny little quirks that only Laddie had. You will never forget Laddie and healing takes time. God bless.
