Hi Russ my heart goes out to you, and I'm so sorry for your loss of your sweet baby Berry. I'm so glad that you were able to be with her in her last moments, I'm sure she felt your love and was comforted by you being there, and even though saying goodbye is one of the hardest things we have to do, we wouldn't change being there with them or having them in our lives. We get such a short time with our dogs, but they give us so much love and pleasure in that time, and they teach us so many things that make our lives richer for having them be part of our families. Berry, you were definitely loved and you will be missed. RIP sweet baby and be free on the Bridge.

So very sorry for your loss.. 12 years for a bully is amazing and I'm sure you're thankful for all that time but at the same time it makes it that much harder when her time finally came. She's beautiful. My sincere condolences on the loss of your sweet girl Berry.

To my dearest family,
Some things I would like to say,
But first of all, to let you know
That I arrived ok.
Iā€™m writing this from Heaven
Where I dwell with God above,
here thereā€™s no more tears or sadness
There is just eternal love.
Please do not be unhappy
Just because Iā€™m out of sight.
Remember that Iā€™m with you
Every morning, noon, and night.
That day that I had to leave you
When my life on earth was through,
God picked me up and hugged me
And He said, I welcome you.
Itā€™s good to have you back again
You were missed while you were gone.
As for your dearest; family
Theyā€™ll be here later on.
I need you here so badly
As part of my big plan.
Thereā€™s so much that we have to do
To help our mortal man.
Then God gave me a list of things
He wished for me to do.
And foremost on that list of mine
Is to watch and care for you.
And I will be beside you
Every day and week and year.
And when youā€™re sad,
Iā€™m standing there to wipe away the tears.
And when you lie in bed at night
The days chore put to flight
God and I are closest to you
In the middle of the night.
ā€ When you think of my life on earth
And all those loving years,
Because youā€™re only human
Theyā€™re bound to bring you tears
But do not be afraid to cry
It does relieve the pain.
Remember, there would be no flowers
Unless there was some rain.
I wish that I could tell you
Of all that God has planned,
But if I were to tell you,
You would not understand.
And to my many friends trust,
God knows what it best.
Iā€™m still not very far away from you
Iā€™m just beyond the crest.
And now I am contented that my life,
It was worthwhile.
Knowing as I passed along the way
I made someone smile.
When youā€™re walking down the street
And youā€™ve got me on your mind,
Iā€™m walking in your footsteps
Only half a step behind.
And when you feel that gentle breeze
Or the wind upon your face,
Thatā€™s me giving you a great big hug
Or just a soft embrace.
And when itā€™s time for you to go
From that body to be free,
Remember, youā€™re not going,
You are coming here to me.
And I will always love you
from that land way up above.
Iā€™ll be in touch again soon
Love Berry
