My sweet Teddy left this Earth on September 28, 2001. His loved ones were with him and he left us peacefully, from his favorite sleeping spot at home. When the pain has subsided a bit I will be able to fill this page with loving memories. ~*~ 11/1/01 Hi Teddy! Today was Granpa's birthday party. We all missed you so much. You always liked to eat your Frosty Paws treat. We love you, sweet boy. I hope you're having fun romping at the Rainbow's Bridge. I've been writing down my memories of you Ted but it's way too much to print here! Those memories make me smile, and then I feel better. Goodnight, Shneefer-Shnoofer! Hugs and kisses and all my love, Mommy. *11/19/01* Happy Birthday, my sweet Teddy Bear! I can't believe it's been 17 years since you were born. I still remember that day vividly, when I got the news of your arrival. You made me the happiest Mommy in the world. We all miss you so much Ted-dums, and we wish you could be with us. I know that you are being well taken care of but I still wish I could hug your soft furry body once more. I love you, my sweet boy, and I'll always think of you. Goodnight, my precious little man... Lots of love and hugs and kisses, Mommy. *1/7/02* Happy New Year, sweet Teddy-boy! We really missed you at Christmas time - I kept looking for tree ornaments to pick up off the floor from when you used to brush by it. We hung your paw stocking with your Guardian Angel Pin and one of your nice Christmas photos. You always looked so handsome, Teddy! We still miss you every day and wish you were with us. But guess what? Maybe you can find your old friend Shiner now. When you see her give her a big furry hug and a lick and show her around Rainbow's Bridge. I'm sure you are quite De Man there now! Hugs and love and kisses, Mommy. *11/21/02* Hello, my precious Teddy. We just had your 18th birthday. I thought a lot about you that day. And I still miss you very much. Everybody's been very busy and we also have a new furry friend at home! His name is Babaloo and he's a Havanese puppy. He's 7 months old now and quite a handfull! Even as a puppy you were more laid back. This little guy is always on the go! Now Shelby is the "old man" with a little guy chasing after him! Remember when Shelby tried to get you to play? Now he knows how you felt when he was a puppy! Well, I must go now, my love. Sweet dreams to you, and be on the lookout for Lucky, who may need a paw to show him around the Rainbow's Bridge. Kisses and hugs, Mommy *12/4/03* Wow, I can't believe it's been over a year since I wrote to you. I still miss you every day, and I look at your picture in the kitchen. Babaloo is really turning out to be a very nice puppy. He's full of energy and loves to play tug and fetch with lots of different toys. He's smart enough to know which toy is which too, when I tell him to GO GET IT! He loves to go for walks down to the creek like you did. Christmas is coming, and I will hang your stocking like I always did. I love you and miss you very much. Love and kisses and hugs, Mommy. *3/2/04* Happy Spring, Ted-dums! The weather is finally getting nicer after a nasty winter. Babaloo is almost 2 now and a lot of fun - he loves to chase things and sit on our laps or with us on the chair or sofa. Can you believe this - he sleeps on the bed with us too! You were always too big! We still miss you so much. I still think about you every day. Lots of hugs and love and kisses, Mommy. *12/05/05* I love you, Teddy. It's almost time to hang your stocking. The piano is gone! Babaloo is still fun and happy. I miss you every day. Love and hugs, Mommy. *6/1/06* Hi, precious Ted-man. I still miss you and think of you every day. Time is flying by - Alice is finishing 11th grade and is learning how to drive. Babaloo is 4 now and still a happy fun and CRAZY puppy! Shelby is still doing fine and he has a new friend, Luke, who came with Sue's new house. Sweet dreams, Ted-dums. I miss you lots. Love and big hugs, Mommy. *12/22/06* It's that time of year again! I remember how you used to walk by the tree and knock off the ornaments! You always knew which stocking was yours too, even before Santa put the treats in it. Babaloo got his festive Christmas ribbon after his bath this week and everyone is coming over for Christmas dinner. We still miss you everyday. Lots of love and hugs, Mommy ~~~ Dear Ted-dums, Luke has passed to the Rainbows Bridge. Give him the tour OK? Granma and Granpa will really miss him. And we all miss you too. Love, Mommy ~~~ 9/28/08 - Dearest Teddy, I can't believe it's been 7 years since you went to Rainbows Bridge. And today, your cousin Shelby will join you. He got sick very quickly and Sue and Chris did everything they could for him. So look for ol' Shelby, Teddy. You guys have a lot of catching up to do. Maybe you can chase some squirrels together. You both will always be in our hearts. We love you all so much. Hugs and love, Mommy.~~~ 5/15/10 - Take very good care of Grandma, Teddy. She will be so happy to see you again.
