Today was one of the
hardest days of my life. After thirteen
amazing years Murphy went to Heaven.
He has been declining for a while and couldn’t push it anymore. I am not sure what we are going to do
without him but we have the BEST memories ever.
Just this side
of heaven is a place called Rainbow Bridge.
When an animal
dies that has been especially close to someone here, that pet goes to Rainbow
Bridge.
There are meadows and hills for all of our special friends so they can
run and play together.
There is plenty of food, water and sunshine, and our
friends are warm and comfortable.
All the
animals who had been ill and old are restored to health and vigor; those who
were hurt or maimed are made whole and strong again, just as we remember them
in our dreams of days and times gone by.
The animals are happy and content,
except for one small thing; they each miss someone very special to them, who
had to be left behind.
They all run
and play together, but the day comes when one suddenly stops and looks into the
distance. His bright eyes are intent; His eager body quivers. Suddenly he
begins to run from the group, flying over the green grass, his legs carrying
him faster and faster.
You have been
spotted, and when you and your special friend finally meet, you cling together
in joyous reunion, never to be parted again. The happy kisses rain upon your
face; your hands again caress the beloved head, and you look once more into the
trusting eyes of your pet, so long gone from your life but never absent from
your heart.
Then you cross
Rainbow Bridge together....
We love you
Murphy!! You are and have always
been the most amazing dog, friend and big brother EVER!!!
