In memory

With tears of grief and heavy hearts

we said goodbye to you.

Animal friends as sweet as you

have been a precious few.

 

You stayed with us

and played with us

and gave us all your love.

Now we give the gift of peace to you

and thank our Lord above

for the years you joined our family

with your patient, gentle face.

we'll always keep you in our hearts

in a very special place.

 

All the memories you made with us

are surely here to stay,

for what love has already given us

death could never take away.
