Our most beloved dog, guardian of childhoods, mother, grandmother, friend.

There are so many ways to describe Lucy, but most of all she was a warrior, living 18 yrs, out-lasting most of her breeds life span by far. January 13th, 2026 she began her journey amongst the stars and super novas, we are almost certain she is brawling with pitbulls amongst galaxies, caring not for her size as she did in life, as we watch over the pieces of you left behind, may you continue to watch us, till we meet again.  ~ with unconditional love your humans

‍

What a gift of love you were. Always there to assist and watch, be it outside or inside the house. Your Wiggle Tail and Paws (Pawie) were great asset given to you. They were methods of getting loves/pets. Such a partner through your life. I love and miss you so much.

My beautiful girl, Pepper Jane, passed away unexpectedly on January 5, 2026.
She was born in 2015 in New Mexico and rescued, as a stray, by Rescue Rovers Dog Adoptions and brought to Utah. Her Gotcha Day was June 3, 2017, which we celebrated every year.
I miss her snuggles, giving her belly rubs, thumping tail, and howling at sirens.
Fly high, my Pepper, over the Rainbow Bridge. Until we meet again.

Cash came into our life unexpectedly, but we are so grateful that he did. Cash made us laugh and giggle every single day. He was the sweetest and cutest little guy we could have asked for. We are still missing his silly and amusing personality.

Stella was more than just our dog, she was a true part of the family. She was the sweetest and most lovable dog we could have asked for. Each day that passes we miss her sweet and adorable presence. You’ll always have a place in our hearts Stella!

Mr Bo! Words cannot describe how much we miss you and how much you meant to us! We will miss your little prance and mellow personality. You were the cuddliest and sweetest little guy and we are so grateful to have been your family. You still mean so much to us, we miss you bo bo!

Kabuki was born in Nikiski, Alaska, on July 22, 2011.
‍
Losing Julius and Barnee 50 weeks apart was unimaginable. The next day we found Kabuki (and Phrog). Long story short, Kabuki was younger than we were told. He was only 6 weeks old. We got to experience litter box training and learning to eat. He reminded so much of Julius and Barnee. He was my purrfect "heart bandaid". He was sweet, curious, smart, and full of personality... my "Buki Butt". Buki was definitely a dog at heart. He loved bringing me sticks, playing fetch, and chasing a laser dot. He loved people and never met a dog he didn't like. He loved playing in boxes, usually pulled everything out so he could get in.

Last month, I was told Kabuki had cancer. It has only been 7 months since we said 'goodbye for now' to Tater Bug. My heart is shattered.

On January 5, 2026, Kabuki reunited with Phroggie and Tater. He also got to meet Julius, Barnee, and all the new friends waiting across the rainbow bridge.

Buki, 14 years will never be enough time with you. Marshmallow and I miss you so much. I hope you're having fun up there.

I love you sweet boy. Goodbye, for now...

9 years ago we brought home the naughtiest puppy. She was the last of her litter to be adopted & I count us so lucky that no one had scooped her up. In her youth Asha was trouble, chasing down a cyclist (because she was sure they wanted to pet her) breaking into the neighbors house (because of course they wanted to play) & getting into just about everything; we didn’t know what we had gotten ourselves into. That little bit of trouble grew into the most amazing girl. Asha was the type of dog that everyone instantly adored, the type of dog that you tell yourself will need to live forever, because you’re not quite sure what you’d ever do without her. We unexpectedly lost our sweet brown eyed girl after only 9 short years together. Asha leaves behind broken hearts & a family that would move the world if only to spend another day with her. I know that where you are, you’re doing magic baby doll.

A short year we spent with Omz before he went to kitty heaven. Our little meow maker as Jaxon would call him. Omz would have a full conversation with you. He loved belly rubs and especially from his boy Jax. His sidekick and brother, Luke, who he was with from the womb missed him terribly as well. RIP Omzy! We love you!

She lived an amazing 21 years and 5 months! VIbrant, fun, funny and playful up until her final days, Curry never met anyone, or anything, who wasn't a friend. Except pet rats; she thought rats were sketchy. Curry especially loved her beautiful blue eyed baby sister Reiko, who preceded her in death 2 years ago. She's survived by her bunny and guinea pig family, human mom and dad (she was adopted in 2004) and many friends! You and your wild, scruffy raccoon fur will be missed and loved always!

Fergie came into our lives in 2020 as a rescue. She didn't trust humans because she had been rehomed twice and mistreated. I was patient with her and earned her trust. Fergie was a very special part of the family. She came out of her shell and thrived. She will be missed dearly. She leaves behind her human family and her ferret family. Her unique personality made her one of a kind. We love you Mama Ferg❤️

Everyday, Juniper was the sweetest and most loving cat there is. She loved everyone and everyone loved her. Juniper had a very bright welcoming soul, she made our house a home, and brought enormous joy into our lives. We miss you, Juniper, very much. We love you everyday, always.

Our beloved cat Shiloh passed away on 13 November 2025. Shiloh was old, blind and finally succumbed to kidney failure.  His loss has had a profound effect on us, and especially myself, for I had been his eyes and his caretaker for many years.  Shiloh loved to give kisses and "snuggles."  He is greatly missed.
Major Street Pet Services cremated two of our former cats, Chloe and Sammy, and when we lost Shiloh, we turned immediately to Major Street for his cremation.  We still have two cats in our household, Cassidy, a yellow Tabby, and Miss Yen, a Siamese, and when it is their time they will join Shiloh, Chloe and Sammy in their cremation boxes in a home shrine, with great appreciation to Major Street Pet Services.  Their kindness and consideration has made our loss much less stressful and our memories much more profound.

Our sweet, brave little Betty loved outdoor adventures as much as she loved a cozy blanket. She needed help on hikes later in life, but Betty clearly believed she was leaping over logs and boulders on her own.  As a young dog she overcame paralysis with surgery and physical therapy, but at age 14 she couldn't overcome a weak heart. Now we don't know who will clean up crumbs from the kitchen floor.  We miss our Betty terribly.

Chandler M Bing-Ellingsworth-Marvidakis-WhiteMy Best Boy, my Love, my Dingle, my Bing-a-ling. You have been by my side for 17 years, you were my baby. You made me laugh, made me smile and showed me true unconditional love.

You lived up to your name. You surprised me so many times and will always be my everything. From the beaches of Florida to drive across America to licking fish to jumping in the lake to catch fish, to cuddling between Mum and Dad while camping.

You were my Favorite hello and my hardest goodbye.

Go play with Bear, Kenny, Blu and Buster Mum can't wait until she holds you in her arms again.

Thank you for 17 amazing years baby boy.

‍

This picture was taken the morning we said goodbye. Our sweet Trixie crossed the rainbow bridge on October 27, 2025, just shy of 15 years old. She battled cancer and kidney failure with such strength and grace, but now she’s free from pain. Trixie filled our lives with so much love, joy, and comfort through every year we were blessed to have her. Her little paws left a forever imprint on our hearts. Run free, sweet girl — we love you always. 🌈🐾

In loving memory of Mac, a remarkable cat who graced our lives for nearly 21 years. Rescued as a stray at the McCarthy Athletic Center, his bent tail told a story of resilience. From bottle-fed baby to a sweet companion, he journeyed through three states, sharing his personality with many. I cherish the memories of him lounging in his sunlit perch, nestled on my chest at night, and proudly meowing each morning to announce breakfast. His playful antics, including stealing food straight from my hand, brought laughter to our home. Thank you, Mac, for two decades of love and joy. You will be forever missed.

Jack was a cool little dude. We didn’t know a lot about him when we adopted him but he quickly showed us loved fetch! He was good at it, too – he’d bring the ball right to you. If he had to search for it at all his tail had a distinct wag. He’d poke us with his nose when he wanted attention and that cold wet nose would get it. Jack was my darling good boy. We loved him so much and will miss his big personality.

Stewart Knievel was born November 18th 2009 and passed away on September 18th 2025 at the age of 15. Stewart the Pekingese, was a spirited little soul who loved food. Not only did food keep Stewart alive, but he lived for food. The way to Stewart's heart was through his stomach. He loved all things edible and would do just about anything for a treat. Stewart was never big on interacting with his own kind and preferred the company of humans. He had a big personality for a small dog, he probably thought he was 10 feet tall and bullet proof. Stew hated the vet, the groomer, and car rides. He wasn't a fan of walks either. I believe his purpose in life was to look cute and eat things. Rest is peace Stinky Stew, I hope you eat all the yummy food! I will love you forever.

Our Mocha Baby. You brought light into our lives we never knew we needed. From 8 weeks old to 5 years old. 5 years of love, of sassiness, of cuddles, of pure joy, of licking our sad years away, of so much beauty. You were my baby, mirrored me in so many ways, but still a daddy’s girl through and through. We’re going to miss you so much, but I know your Grandma is spoiling you on the other side. Thank you for being the bestest Mocha Baby ever. For saving us. We love you pretty girl! “Uma?? Kisi? MMMWAAAH”

Bella we found you at Home Depot and acquired you from a man who had found you and was trying to find items to make you a safe place to live. The man admitted he would not really be a very good pet owner and we were looking for another small dog for a companion for our dog Cammie. Bella you were the best little dog for 15 years, you were full of energy and full of love and was the friendliest little dog. We are so sad that your little heart gave out and we miss you forever.

Maggie was more than just a dog. She was my sidekick, my companion and my peace. Maggie's  eyes looked into your soul. She was so caring and would check in with me every couple of hours. She knew what I needed before I did. I miss her so much.

Sweet Sammi girl, your passing was so unexpected. We never thought you'd leave us so soon. Our hearts are shattered, but we find peace knowing that Jaxon is taking good care of you.  We miss your sweet cuddles, purring, kneading, your scattered gifts, and the way you were the Queen of the house.   It's not the same without you. Until we meet again sweet girl. All our love.
Mom,  Dad, Jacob, Bear and Nessie

Ruthie’s & Jim’s HERO”

Our sweet little Hero has crossed the Rainbow Bridge on July 7th, 2025. He really was a "Hero" to us. We adopted him from the Humane Society just after the new year in 2014 and chose to keep the name he came with. This tiny pup was the light of our lives for 11 and 1/2 years! We took him camping one last time over the 4th of July for his final adventure. Hero loved our little trailer and getting out on the water for fishing, kayaking and paddleboarding. It won’t be the same camping without him, but we will treasure our beautiful memories. 🐾 🌈 ❤️

‍

If love could have saved you, you would have lived forever. You made me laugh every day, from your ferocious bark, to stomping of your paw when I wasn't quick enough. I feel like I let you down. Breathe easily now and run in the fields of raises. Jean-Pierre and I will miss you and never stop loving you.

Our beloved Bear,

There isn’t a moment that passes when we don’t miss you. We still find ourselves looking for you in every corner of the house. The silence when we come home is deafening without your bark to greet us.

Daddy will always cherish the joy of your playful boxing matches. Your fur still lingers on our clothes and furniture—a gentle reminder that you were here, and so deeply loved.

You were the best big brother to Chandler. He’s lost without you, just as we are. You didn’t just take up space on the couch—you filled our hearts completely.

Run free now, Bear Bear Bear. Free from pain, wrapped in our love.

‍

We will miss you more than words can express.  We are grateful for your unconditional love and the joy you brought into our lives.  It was truly the greatest gift of all.  You were a wonderful boy and we will forever cherish the memories we shared.  We love you Vader.

At the old age of 15 years old, sweet Turkle crossed the rainbow bridge with her human (Evangeline) by her side. At the age of 16, Turkle was a gift to her human given to her by her significant other (Justin) while they were dating. Years later she became a big sister to two more humans (Faye & Sage). This is a huge loss for Turkles family, she brought unconditional love & friendship to the household & always made her presence known whenever she entered a room, there will never be another like her. With her loving nature, Turkle also carried a responsibility of keeping her other dog and cat companions in the house in line. She loved staring out the window & sleeping at her humans feet. Turkle will always be in her family's hearts & will always be loved & missed.

Our beloved Maddi crossed the rainbow bridge at 14 years old. We were lucky to share 13 of those with her. Rescued at site 18 in Kings Mountain State Park in South Carolina, she became our loyal companion and adventure partner. Maddi traveled to 21 different states and swam in two different oceans. Even after a terminal diagnosis, she stayed strong, joyful, and full of love. She helped build the heart of our family. She is survived by her humans and puppy sisters Lizzi and Zoey. Maddi lived fully, loved deeply, and will be missed forever. She was truly one of a kind.

We adopted RUDY from the Animal Shelter and he was already about 5 years old. RUDY did not like cats at all and made sure they knew it. He also had a very stubborn attitude and loved super long walks with his brother Rocky who passed 2 years ago. Rudy was so strong willed and had the skinniest little hind legs. They failed him his last day as well as a 2 year stretch with diabetes causing him to be blind. He loved eating so we know his last day was up as he refused his morning food. RUDY had been seen the past few years with cats surrounding him. He did not feel the need to have the chase with them any longer. We grew closer and closer as he was my work partner at home and he needed regular care at the very end. He took a small walk on the day he passed but that was his last walk about He could not stand again. He did enjoy every day of his life until that day. We have been inseparable because I have been his eyes and caretaker and he worked with me at home every day. I missed my grumpy little man who carried a vast amount of love for his family. I miss you so little buddy. Enjoy time back with your big brother.

Franni-boo was such a fiercely loyal companion with a personality that made everyone laugh and smile so big it hurt. We have so many great memories that have brought us comfort. She was a lover of all treats and lived for her schedule. Fran was smart as a whip. So very loving and adoring to those she cared for and vocal about those she wasn’t sure about. I’m happy she met baby girl and held on as long as she did. She is missed immensely and will never be forgotten. 15 years is a long time to have a loyal companion by your side. I never knew me a better dog and guess I never will! ♥️

It’s with a heavy heart that we announce that we lost our sweet Lilo Maria aka BooBoo. From the moment I laid eyes on you when you were born, you have brought so much joy and happiness to my life! You were the best companion and fur baby and I’m so sad and lost without you. Anyone that knew me, knew you. You were always by my side at all times 24/7 and the house feels so empty without you. I know you free of pain and happy to be back with your mama Skeeder girl. We love and miss you so much already and will never forget you. I will hold your love in heart forever.

Tater

My sweet and timid, Tater Bug, crossed the rainbow bridge on May 29, 2025, surrounded by her family. Tater was born on April 24, 2007, in North Pole, Alaska. Tater and her brother, Julius, were adopted when they were 8 weeks old. They joined Barnee. The three of them traveled quite a bit including Alaska, Canada, Arizona, and Utah. While they weren’t fans of traveling, they loved being together. Tater and Barnee were the best of friends. Never far from each other. Always napping together. Sadly, Tater lost both Julius and Barnee, when she was just 4 years old. While I've gotten 18 years of love and adventure with Tater, I know she has deeply missed the boys for the last 14 years. Tater reuniting with the boys brings some peace and comfort to an otherwise broken heart. Love and miss you everyday my goodest girl, my Tae Tae. Tell the boys hi for me.
I loved you your whole life, I will miss you for the rest of mine. - unknown

You filled a spot in my heart that desperately needed to be filled. Without you life would have not been the same. You were my light in the dark. I love you always my handsome boy.

Love, Mom

‍

Baby, you were more than a pet — you were my guardian angel, my purpose, my joy. From the moment you came into my life, you filled every day with love, playfulness, and comfort. You brought my family closer and gave me strength in my darkest times. Your absence has left a void words can’t describe, but your spirit lives on in every star, sunset, and memory. I’ll carry your love with me forever. Thank you for changing my life, for showing me what unconditional love truly is. I miss you endlessly, Baby boy. I’ll love you always.

‍

In loving memory of our sweet Blu-berry.

You brought joy, comfort, and endless love into our lives. Your tiny paws left the biggest imprint on our hearts. Whether curled up beside us or going for rides, your presence made everything better. Life is quieter without you, but our memories are full of your warmth and spirit.

Thank you for the love you gave so freely.

We will love you always, Blu-berry.

Rest peacefully, sweet girl.

Monkey “Pretty Girl”
Not a day will go by that we won’t think about you. You were amazing in every way a dog could be. Thanks for being such a good dog! We all miss you, especially Moose and Fish. Thanks for being their cuddle buddy, and for making us throw your ball every second! We hope you are having a blast in doggy heaven!
Love - Mom, Fish, Moose, Lily, Grace, and Ruby

He was such a good cat, an adventurer, and from the beginning an activist. Our Clark Kat was hit and killed on Tuesday by a driver who didn’t stop.

Clark began life in 2019 as a sick and tiny kitten. We thought we’d lose him but in some last-ditch efforts with antibiotics, he rallied. X-rays didn’t find a cause, but they did find a pellet lodged in his abdomen. Someone had shot this tiny cat, who somehow survived. He lived out his life with that pellet in his body.

Clark loved belly rubs, warm cement, his dog Pax and his family.

‍

She was a beautiful cat she loved to play and sleep with me. She has a brother named Boone they would play together, though  her brother had to be right there. I will miss her my heart is broken. She could  never be replaced.

Ritzy,
I can’t begin to express how much I miss you every second of every day. I miss seeing you when I get home from work. I miss you wanting on my shoulder and wanting to be smothered with my kisses. I miss hearing you purr and your meows. I will never forget the 12 years we got to spend together and the special bond we had. I can’t wait for the day when I get to see you again.
I love you.

Charlie was the epitome of a spunky terrier! He was so naughty, always chasing cats and squirrels, and always on the lookout for his human and dog friends in the neighborhood. He had so much personality - loved squeaky toys, loved tv whether it was the news, golf, or animal shows. He loved to go hiking, and a car ride anywhere was great!He was my constant shadow, I will always love and miss you and was not ready for you to leave me so suddenly even though we had thirteen wonderful years together, my dearest friend Charlie.

Rusty, our darling rescue that was so very loved.   He brought us so much joy, laughter and on occasion some frustration;)  He loved to fetch balls.  He also loved his plush toys and had a favorite pink pig that he got as a puppy and slept with his entire life.  He was a fabulous watch dog and companion to us and his 2 sisters.   We will forever have him in our hearts.  

18 years was simply not enough.
November 2006 to April 26, 2025

Fifteen years ago, Buddy came to us on a trial run. Within a day, he melted our hearts, and we knew that he was part of our family.

Buddy gave lots of nips at the heel to let you know who was the boss. Also, he loved his daily walks and cuddles. Buddy loved basking in the sunshine! These last few weeks, Buddy wasn't himself. We knew that it was time to let him go—the hardest thing in the world to say goodbye to your fur baby.

We will see you again across the Rainbow Bridge.

Love you Buddy Boy!

It is with heavy hearts that we say goodbye to Danielson, a loyal companion and cherished member of the family. He filled our days with joy, unwavering love, and countless tail wags. Whether it was bounding through walks, curling up at our feet, or greeting us with excitement after even the shortest of absences, Danielson brought light to every moment.
We will forever miss his playful spirit, soulful eyes, and the way he always knew when we needed a friend. Though the house feels quieter now, Danielson's memory will live on in our hearts and in the stories we’ll tell. Rest easy, sweet Danielson. You were, and always will be, deeply loved. 🐾

Yawny was my best friend, he was everybody's best friend. In his 11 years on Earth he was an adventurer, climbing mountains in multiple states as well as swimming those multiple state's lakes. He was a nanny dog, he protected any child. He didn't care if he knew the child, if that child looked scared he would jump in and protect that child. He gave love and comfort when he knew you were sad and all he asked for in return were pets and occasionally treats. It's so hard to be here without him, but his suffering has ended and his love is eternal. Cancer may have taken your body but it will never take your spirit! We love and miss you Yawny!

My sweet Bella born the day of my wedding anniversary. She brings us happiness and company for 8 years of love and smiles. My sweet baby, we miss you and we know you are with Honey in Heaven. 💫

In Loving Memory of Suzy Q Torrey
‍
Some souls are meant to cross our paths, no matter how briefly, and Suzy Q Torrey was one of those souls. From the moment I learned we shared the same birthday, I knew she was meant to be in my life—it was destiny.
‍
In just one year, Suzy Q brought so much energy, warmth, and joy into my world. Her tiny presence was anything but small; she was a light, a comfort, and a reminder that love comes in all shapes and sizes. She had a way of making even the hardest days a little softer, a little brighter.
‍
Though she is no longer here, her memory will always remain with me. I will forever cherish the time we had, the love she gave, and the happiness she brought.
‍
Suzy Q, you will always be in my heart. I will always remember you. I will always love you.

Duke has always been a happy nonchalant boy no matter what’s happening around him. He was only one year old when he first arrived into my home in March 2008, kept his name as the name Duke belongs to him. When he was 5, he was diagnosed with addison yet he continued to fight & lived normal like any other dogs. He’s been thru a lot including surgeries but he never gave up as he thinks I still need him around up until last week at 18 he could no longer hold on. I told him if he wants to go he can…it hurts but I know it’s his time 😌 I love you Dukester ☹️ Keep wagging your tail until we meet again. Love, Nana.

Thank you so much Major Street Pet services for this. You guys are awesome!

Bella came to my life when she was 8 weeks old, she was tiny and cute.  She was my little companion and would love to go for walks, even when it was snowing, she liked to lick it.  Bella was the ambassador of friendship in my neighborhood. Bella would sit on top of the couch to see outside. At the park she had her favorite spot where she would lie down to watch people passing by. My little sweet and beautiful Bella, you were and always be close to my heart, I will never forget you and the wonderful times we had together.

Lost my best Friend Tazhi after seventeen years together.  Mr. Tazhi your smile and affectionate eyes will linger in memory forever.  
Love, Dad
XOXO

My sweet Honey
She was special part of our family since she was 2 months old, filling our heart with love. She was happy , over protective and very sweet with all of us, and she knew exactly how to talk to us. She also was a wonderful mom and when Bella passed away she was deeply and emotionally sad. Unfortunately, she had 4 mammary Tumors and recently was in too much pain and ill, we couldn’t handle see so you sick.
Honey you know how much we loved you and we always will miss you 💜 2010-2024

Boston was the great protector of his younger brother Booda. Our little chugs (chihuahua/pugs) were inseparable. They loved to play, do tricks, and sleep curled up together. We didn’t know how depressed a little dog could get, but Booda held on for his humans for another couple of years after Boston passed. Both of our babies told us when it was their time to go, and with the kind and compassionate help we had from Dr. Durfee and Tyler at Major Street, they left our world in a peaceful way. Our sweet dogs have now been reunited. 💜

‍

Harley, we miss you so much already. Not a day goes by that we don't think about you. I bet your brother Max was so happy to see you. We will miss your spunky playful spurts, your crazy licking, or when someone asks did someone toot and you get embarrassed. But we know your not in pain anymore. And finally with your brother again. We miss and Love You Harley Marley.
p.s. tell Maxi Pad we Love and Miss Him so much

We got Axle In 2010 and had many fun and crazy adventures with him-many on our boat (he loved the water!) and crazy stories a couple of which he jumped out of the car. He had the cutest little Bow legged trot when he would run toward you. He was a member of the family but grew very old and was suffering. I did not want to let him go and it was hard but definitely time. We will talk about you and our memories with you forever Ax! We love you.
I am very thankful to Major Street pet services be able to leave this memorial. Thank you for caring🤍🐾. 2/4/10 ~ 10/16/24

Brats, a name that conjures up images of mischief, but in your case, it was a badge of honor. You weren't just a dog; you were a member of our family, a loyal companion, and a source of endless joy.

Your playful antics, from digging for voles to stealing bread, always brought a smile to our faces. Your wagging tail was a beacon of happiness, and your unconditional love was a constant in our lives.

We'll miss your goofy grin, your warm presence, and gentle saunter. Thank you for all the wonderful memories. Rest in peace, dear Brats

Khloe was truly a one of a kind dog. She was high maintenance and demanding but won out hearts immediately! She was beautiful and smart and loyal to the end. We will miss her so much.

Love you lil miss princess, khloe klo klo, Fatniss everdean! RIP baby girl! Your family will always love you! 🩵💕💜❤️

Bryant came into my life in 2017 when I was really struggling. I went to the shelter and immediately fell in love with him and his big green eyes. I knew he was the cat for me. He must have known I was his person because he walked right up to me and stared deep into my eyes. We quickly became family. He never left my side and always wanted cuddles. It's like he knew I was sad and he didn't want me to be alone. He helped me keep going and helped me smile again. He was almost more like a dog then a cat with how loving he was. I'll never forget how he made people who didn't like cats fall in love with him. He was the perfect cat and best friend a person could have. We only had 7 short years together and I wish we could have had more. I love you Bry Bry. You are deeply missed. Rest in peace my baby.

My sweet sweet mama, I cry everyday wishing you were still here with me. I miss your sweet little face and meow, waking me up every single day. You were such a smart, grumpy but happy girl and I was so lucky to be your person. I hope heaven has lots of treats and some shoe laces for you to chase around. Thank you for being by my side everyday for the past 20 years. You will always be a missing piece of my heart and I could never forget you. Please visit me in my dreams. I will always miss you and I will always love you, my sweet Lufi boo🩷

Oh my cat diggity dog. Not a day goes by that we don’t miss you. We miss you greeting us at the door, your endless cuddles, your barking while we ate dinner so dad can give you your tortilla. You left an emptiness in our home and our hearts. I know it was your time to go, but— boy does it hurt. Until we meet again.

Asher was our perfect Christmas gift and he was a gift every day for the past 14 years. He had a special relationship with each family member. He always checked in to make sure everyone was in their beds before turning in himself. From silly walks, big sloppy kisses, and nose boops. He was our favorite hello, and our hardest goodbye.

‍

Muffin was the first Dog in our family. She was 6 and she was shy and a little scared at first, but she was playful and so sweet. Muffin wasn’t wanted by many families before us and it’s strange because she was the best girl we could’ve ever asked for. She crossed the rainbow bridge 07/07/2024. Thank you Muffin for giving us the best 8 years of our lives and we’ll miss you so much. Say hi to Darling up there.

When we first saw your beautiful brown eyes mom said, “Take him to the pound.”   We already had 3 dogs.  Later that day I showed up at home with you in my arms and mom then said, “Ok his name is Milo.”  Milo you saved us in so many ways when you found us that June day 15yrs ago in 2009. You were with us through all the good and bad times.  Not a moment goes by that we don’t think of you, miss your snuggles, kisses and love you Munchibutt, our sweet angel.  You were, have been and always will be the little love of our lives forever!

My princess passed away on June 10th. She gave us 12 beautiful years. You were so sassy and fisety. I'll always remember you stealing our beers if we set them down next to our chairs or knocking them over and licking it up off the ground.  You will forever be in our hearts my sweet little girl.

Samantha, my Gold Capped Conure, (Sammeeee is how she said her name) was my first pet and an amazing little girl. I knew nothing about parrots when I got Sammeeee, but we learned quickly together. When Sammeeee was a baby I would turn off the lights and sit by her cage and tell her "Night night, love you."  These were Sammmeeee's first words.  Sammeeee and I hung out together a lot, I never watched TV, a movie or YouTube without her cuddling on my chest. Sammeeee learned tricks that we took to schools, boy scouts groups and about any other event we were invited to. I have a globe I would ask Sammeeee, "Where did you come from?"  She would spin the globe until she found Brazil and would put her foot on it and tell the kids, "I came from right here." In reality Sammeeee came from Odgen, UT yet she knew the color on the globe to impress the kids into believing she knew where Brazil is. I would hear the doorbell and going to the door I would realize it was Sammeeee mimicing the doorbell. The microwave would sound and yup, it was Sammeeee. The smoke alarm would sound multiple times a day and we learned fairly quickly to ignore it as it was Sammeeee. Sammeeee would call the dogs and they would come running to me believing I had called them. Sammeeee hatched on September 11, 1998 and passed away May 21, 2024. When I posted on my Conure page that Sammeeee was gone everyone was so surprised she had an amazingly long lifespan. On May 21, 2024 I was gone most of the day and came home to Sammeeee under the paper on the bottom of her cage which isn't unusual as this time of the year is breeding season and Sammeeee didn't care that she didn't have a mate, she would make a nest with the paper in her cage. I took Sammeeee from her cage to cuddle and immediately knew something was wrong. I knew at her age there was nothing the vet could do so Sammeeee and I cuddled on the couch for almost three hours. She reached her beak to me several times for kisses. As she was getting weaker she reached up for one last kiss, said "Night night, love you," and closed her eyes for the last time. Sammmeeee's first words as a juvenile and last words to me were, "Night night, love you."  Sammeeee, night night, love you; until we meet again.

Maribel (Bells)

Maribel joined our family in April of 2016 at 6 months old. Little was known about her life before us, but we do know that it was not an easy one for her. The day we met her at the shelter, she jumped out of her kennel and into our arms and hearts. She held onto us tightly and we knew we could not put her back. No matter what she had gone through in her first 6 months of her life, it did not stop her from loving with every ounce of her being. She was a silly girl and would do cute little summer salts when she wanted cuddles and tummy rubs. Every morning, she would circle the bed making pterodactyl
like noises until we invited her up for snuggles. She loved her tiny human sibling and all her fur siblings. She had a light inside of her that made everyone she met feel love. She passed away peacefully in our arms on May 28th, 2024. Our house seems more quiet and her favorite spot on the couch is empty. There is a hole in our hearts that cannot be filled. We are so grateful for the time we had with her. Rest in peace Baby Bells. I hope the other side of the rainbow bridge is as amazing as everyone says it is.

In Loving Memory of Crazy Maizee Martin (2011-2024)  

Maizee was a sweet, loyal, and beautiful puppy that my family was blessed with having by a family friend. She was a little shy at first but became a crazy and energetic ray of sunshine that jumped from couch to couch, she would also play catch and then throw her toy from one end of the room to the next, ran from one corner of our yard to the next with her humans after which she would sit in the grass and bask in the sun.  She loved to meet and play with fellow smaller dogs and was curious about bigger dogs and cats. She enjoyed car rides and going different places whether it was Grandmas house for Sunday dinner, listening to music at music fairs, watching her humans at football games, going to see fireworks, relaxing at the cabin on the Wasatch Mountains, spotting deer and elk in Elk Ridge, riding around West Mountain to see Utah lake and interacting with cows and spotting eagles, I could go on. Maizee brought joy to anyone she met. Through the darkest moments to the lightest, Maizee was an unwavering companion. Until the very end, she fought CHF with incredible strength, yet remained playful and spirited, like a puppy, until her last breath. Her glow greeted us at the door, and her absence still echoes in our home. Thank you for the best adventure and memories, I pray that we will meet at the rainbow bridge one day.

Our beloved Murphy left us after 16 and half years of loyalty and devotion. He loved going on car rides, his weekly hamburger from McDonald’s and snuggling with his family. He was my hiking buddy and I miss him
so much. ❤️

Minx was a huge part of our family for almost 6 years.  From her nub for a tail to the tip of her nose, every part of her was love. Her favorite thing was to cuddle with her buddy, Rosey.  She would crawl under her covers in bed and peek her head out.  She loved climbing the cat tree and any kind of food she could get her paws on.  I will miss her dancing around my feet any time we had chicken.  We are forever blessed to have had you in our lives, and the time was all too short.  We know that you are not hurting anymore, and that give us comfort.  We love and miss you Minx.

Marshall "Marshy" "Houdini" 2009 -  2024. Our sweet Marshall crossed the rainbow bridge early the morning of his 15th birthday, after a well lived, well loved life. From an 8 week old puppy to a sweet old man, you became a part of our family and forever our hearts.

Marshy, you were truly my 4th child and best friend. You were always happy no matter what and knew exactly how to comfort us when we needed it the most, never minding if your human siblings crawled in Your bed for a snuggle. We will smile thinking of you dancing and wrestling with the kids, "playing" Uno, always being willing to be dressed up from mickey ears to goggles to matching Christmas pajamas, thinking you were a lap dog, and sharing popcorn on movie night. Marshy, there is an emptiness in our home without you. Each night, the kids have prayed for your happiness over that rainbow bridge since you crossed. We miss you so very much. Thank you for every snuggle, every loving nudge, and for making your love and understanding ever so clear right up through the end. I feel so honored as your human mama to have been with you 'til the very last hour. Thank you for sharing your life with us, we are grateful for every moment.

One final cheers to our mighty Jaeger. We bid farewell to our cherished boy who graced our lives with his distinguished personality for nearly 13 years. Jaeger was more than just a pet; he was our steadfast guardian and pillow cuddle companion. Though Jaeger embarks on his next adventure, his memory will forever remain in our hearts. We are immensely grateful for the immeasurable joy and love he brought into our little family.

Our beautiful, sweet, handsome son Jake. Our Jakey Makakey, our twinkle toes, our baby. We celebrated your life everyday and our great, intense love for you is everlasting. You were truly our world, our everything, and at least we can take some comfort in this crushing knowing you knew that. We will forever miss you Jake, until the glorious day our souls are together. We love you too much, Jake and Grandma loves you.

Marnie - Mini Bull Terrier
7/20/2011-3/26/2024

I know we were meant to be together so that I could endure what I had to go through.
I could not do that without you, Marnie.
I miss you laying on my lap. I miss you looking at me: Your beautiful eyes, speaking straight to my soul.
I know you are watching over me from heaven. I can picture you sunbathing in heaven with your mom, Edna, and your daughter, Peaches.
I miss you so much. You know I still talk to you, Marnie.
I love you very much. I will be there someday to be with you again, so please wait for me in heaven.
Until then,

The first day I meet you at the Animal Shelter I knew you were meant for me.  Ever since that day, I fell in love with you I knew I had to bring you home. I will miss you help me through a lot in my life. Thank you for coming into my life.

Alphie

Loved Family Member of Rich & Tillie Young

You came into our lives when you were six years old because somebody gave you up to Salt Lake County Animal Services. After four short years you passed away due to an autoimmune disorder. We miss you very much. You were our little buddy. You enjoyed going for walks & rides in the car. You loved giving Daddy hugs and kisses and having mom scratch your back and brushing your beautiful fur. Everybody who met you loved you but that’s because you loved them.

Our Beloved Harley is truly going to be missed. She lived a very long life as she was 16 years old. When I got Harley, I didn’t choose her she chose me but peeing on me. I knew then that I had to have her. She was my companion my best friend. She got me through a lot of hard times. Harley baby momma loves you cannot wait to see you again.  

We fell in love with you on a Thanksgiving day, you found us & instantly knew we were meant to be family. Forever will cherish all your cuddles after a long & tiring day at work. Even though you could be a feisty girl we loved you, your love bites were also appreciated. Thank you for being there on our darkest days, finding a way to cheer us up and always being happy to see us. You didn’t get the chance to meet your baby sister but she will know all about you. Love you always. Forever our baby Yeya.

From the tiny fluffy jelly spotted jelly bean to the big lanky loch-neck beast she became Fionnula was our sweet albeit goofy dog. Her favorite treat was couches and her favorite pastime may have been barking and counter surfing, but we loved her just the same. She was a fierce protector of children and loved to play and frolic. She was taken too soon from us, and we will miss her dearly.

Our sweet little, tiny Nori, our hearts are absolutely broken to lose you, especially so suddenly. You have, and will forever hold an incredibly large & special spot in our hearts, for such a tiny little dog. You are our little fur baby. We miss how you stole everyone’s socks. We miss how you incessantly barked to play fetch. We miss your little, tiny tongue, always sticking out of your mouth. There will be no one to regulate any children running in the house, and there will be no one to put Zeus and the kitties in their places. We are hopeful that you are finally with whomever or whatever you were air-licking this whole time. We love you with all of our hearts, and we are devastated by your passing. But we understand God wanted one of his sweetest little furry angels back. we pray to see you again, one day.

Leah Marie our little princess was always a very special girl, from the first day I saw you it was love at first sight.

You were the most beautiful, loving and perfect girl. I know that one day we will meet again but this time we will be together forever…

The day that I met Tom and the day that I said goodbye to him were entirely too close together. I thank my lucky stars I adopted such a special guy. We built such a strong bond, and I hope with all of my being he knows how much he was loved. I miss those sweet snuggles. I miss that paw reaching out to me for pets. I miss scratching that forehead. Always in my heart and forever my sweet Tom. Rest in peace my baby boy. Very sweet calm boy. He loved to be loved on and he made my daughter very happy and that was the most important thing to me.

On Jan 5, 2023, our friend and companion passed away. Indy Parti Princess was our dog her whole life, she graced us with 10 wonderful years. She was part of our family and loved everyone she came in contact with. She was a very calming pet, and made us very happy. She was brought into our family to help my wife's children cope with the loss of their father, and she turned out to be more than that. Playing with her ball, chasing and keep away were her favorite things to do. The grandchildren also loved to play with her, every family picture we took somehow she ended up in it. We will miss her, and are very grateful for our time with her. She will always be part of us and look forward to seeing her again in the afterlife.

To Casey (nickname Bé Gái). Our baby daughter, words cannot describe how much we love and adore you. From the day you were born you have brought us nothing but love and joy. You are the most beautiful, sweetest, most adorable baby girl we could have ever asked for. You are daddy's girl, mommy's girl, baby sister, big sister. You had many roles. Throughout the good times and bad times you were always there for our family. You were one of the rare constants in our life. We'll never forget the sound of your voice when you always made sure to wake us up in the morning, or made sure to greet us when we got home. We never had to do anything special. You were just excited and happy to simply see us walk through the door. Your love was always unconditional. We never wanted to think about the day when you would leave us and enter those Heavenly Gates and we don't know how we'll manage without you. Please bless and look down on us from above and know that someday our family will be reunited in heaven. Know that you will never be forgotten, you will always be loved and you will always be our baby girl Bé Gái.

I miss you so much! You truly were my best friend and are absolutely irreplaceable! We had such a good fun life together! I will miss you snuggling up on my chest and sleeping for hours and your silly defiances. I will never forget you!

Luci “Goose”, our sweet kitty, was the best cat anyone could ask for. All she ever wanted was to be where we were and have what we were eating. Her little meows, funny attitude, and affectionate cuddles filled our home with joy. Luci loved ‘walkies’ on her leash in the warm sunshine. No spiderweb was safe from her curious nose. On weekends she would take turns sitting on each of our laps, purring warmly when we’d scratch her chin. We loved her deeply and will miss her greatly. We were incredibly fortunate to have her in our lives.

An ode to KODA:🐾

---------------------------------------

Some will say he was just a dog. But to those who knew him, he was more of a complete person than most of us will ever become. Koda was our "fur beast", our child, our friend. “. . . When you love somebody, you trade souls with them. They get a piece of yours, and you get a piece of theirs. But when your love dies... a little piece of you dies with them. . . But that little piece of him is still inside you. And he can use your eyes to see the world."

Hunter was the best little man that I could have bless my life for 14 years. He followed me everywhere I went and loved to go for car rides with me on my lap. I always remember the day as a puppy, he crawled up on the middle of my back and try to sleep while I was laying on the floor. He left paw prints on my heart and I deeply miss him everyday. I believe he knows I loved him completely till the end and we’ll be reunited on the Rainbow Bridge when it’s my time.

My baby Ariel passed away September 10. She was just a little over a year. She was my everything!  She helped me through a bad car accident.  She definitely left a print in my family's hearts. We will miss her forever. Rest easy baby girl!
