    I've lost a Good Friend

    Luke was a great little dog that brought a lot of happiness to our family. Sadly when I came out to the living room after getting out of bed this morning and went over to the chair he was laying in to see him I realized he had made his journey to the Rainbow Bridge. He had some medical issues he was being treated for, and he was a senior dog. Even when you know in the back of your mind that something like this is getting ready to happen it still does nothing to ease the sadness felt when losing a cherished member of our family.

    Our deepest condolences go out to you and yours Robert.

    Although I'd never seen his photo before I had of course heard him many times on TeamSpeak when he'd come to visit you while you were working on your models.

    Deepest sympathy Robert,I am a 'Dog" guy and I know how hard it is to lose a member of the family like this. We lost our 12 year old Choc.Lab Roxie not too long ago and it is never easy to get past it.

    Sorry to hear. Our four-legged family members are just that; family. They come into our lives as strangers and leave us much richer for the experience and love that they bring.

    Odie, I have that same Rainbow Bridge over a picture of my late black Lab, a dog I loved dearly and I always get watery eyes when I read it. I know how you must feel N2056 and you have my heart felt condolences.
    Do not fear the enemy, for they can take only your life. Fear the media far more, for they will destroy your honour.

    Something of this nature is difficult. Two close "friends" departed with a piece of our hearts, taking along with, many memories.

    Very sorry for your loss. The affection that these animals convey is boundless and unconditional. I hope you meet your little buddy when it is time to cross over to the other side.

    You have my deep sympathy for the loss of your friend Luke.
    I lost my 19 year old soulmate cat Amelia last August.
    Had recently adopted a beautiful, sweet 10 month old Siamese cat from a neighbor and named her Claire. We were getting tight but she apparently got spooked during a thunderstorm and has gone missing. Still hoping for her return.
    When we take in pets we know they can break our hearts. Wishing you continuing loving thoughts and memories of your buddy Luke.

    Unhappy

    My condolences to you. I know times are hard, but as the saying goes, the darkest hour is just before dawn. I had a dog named Shane when I was a child. He was a German Shepard. He was my brother, my protector, my friend. One day after we had come home from a camping trip, I went out in the back yard to find him. He wasn't there, so Dad volunteered to go look for him. He did, 2 blocks up the street on the side of the road. I suppose he was out looking for us.


    It was one of the most heart-breaking things I have ever gone through. One thing I have learned to help cope with it is to remember, gone but never forgotten. I remember that he was in my life as long as I needed him, and as soon as I was ready, he was called home. I can only hope that with time, your pain eases and that you find comfort in remembering him and all the good times together. My very best regards, Jeremy

    Hi Robert.

    I'm so happy to read of the good times your pup gave to you and your family. I hope you and the family can now honor him with your fond memories, and therefore continue receiving the joy he gave you. Best wishes for you. Thanks for sharing this with us.
