Little Man Ausie, you have been gone to the Paradise meadow by Rainbow Bridge for a long, long month now. Grandma and Grandpa are still dealing with the grief of the loss of our special little dog man. It is still difficult for us to understand that you are gone from our everyday lives...everywhere we look, we see you doing the things that made us smile. Everything we do seems to remind us of happier times when you were with us. Though you are no longer physically with us, you are nestled forever deep in our hearts and forever in our memories. We know sending you on to Paradise meadow with your dignity to be reborn young and healthy again to play as you once did as a young puppy and dog was the right decision to make for you but that knowledge does not make the decision any easier or less painful for us. We hope your journey to Paradise meadow was peaceful and that you were met at meadow's gate by the others of our meadow fur family...big kitty sister Pressy, kitty brother Willie, big doggy sister Hannah, Lady Char, and all the other furbabies Grandma and Grandpa have loved who have gone on to the meadow before you.

We will come back many times to write all about our little man for others to know what joy and love you brought to our lives but right now we are yet too saddened by your passing.

4/13/15 Good Morning, little old man. Grandma and Grandpa are missing you so very much. Everywhere we look, we see so many reminders of you...you were and still are a big part of our lives. Our trip to Arizona last month was not the usual good time with you...we could only continue to remember all the previous trips with our little man traveling with us; you were such a good traveling companion. Grandma had no one to share her "on the road snacks" with...I could see the sad look on her face when she would come out of the truck stop café with a snack. She was sad because she had no eager little boy Ausie to share it with. Our Spring Arizona driving trip was always your "vacation" trip to go visit Great-Grandpa and Auntie Dalinda and to explore new places on the way...we missed you terribly. Our trip was not nor never will be the same without our little man with us. Auntie Dalinda was very sad about you having to go on to Paradise meadow. Grandma and Grandpa are still not ready yet to write about the many wonderful memories we have of our little man but we will because you left us with many happy ones...it's just right now the strongest memory we have is the sad day we had to say goodbye to you. We love you so much little old man...you will live on forever in our hearts.

Goodbye

With heavy hearts and a tear in our eyes,
After all these years, we must say goodbye.
Please understand we've done all we could,
If there was anything we could do, you know we would.

I'm sitting right here gently rubbing your ears,
While I talk to you softly, trying to hold back the tears.
The memories you gave us we'll never forget,
Especially the ones of the day we met.

One last hug and one last kiss,
You have no idea how much you'll be missed.
To look into your eyes this one last time...
You tell me it's ok, you know it's your time.

Close your eyes now, and go to sleep,
We'll pray to the Lord your soul He'll keep.
Go in peace now, our good friend,
We'll stay right here with you until the end.

Dream of that special day and time,
When we'll meet at the Bridge and all will be fine.
We'll run and play, side by side,
With a soft warm feeling deep down inside.

Your memory will live on in each one of us,
You'll always be number one to all of us.
Have a safe journey through the night,
I promise when you awake, you'll be in God's light.

So with heavy hearts, and tears in our eyes...
Just for now my friend, we say goodbye.
