I will truely miss you my friend

Rainbow Bridge
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....

I'm really sorry to hear about your loss. You are in my thoughts and prayers I know how you are feeling as my dog made the transition a week and a half ago. But now they are happy, youthful and healthy again.

I love Rainbow Bridge. That's the first time I've heard it and it brought a tear to my eye. What lovely words!

Oh sutoid I'm sorry for your loss too. These things make life so hard!

So sorry for your loss:

If Tears could build a stairway
and memories were a lane,
I would walk right up to Heaven
And bring you back again.

No Farewell words were spoken
No time to say Good-Bye,
You were gone before I knew it
And only God knows why.

My heart still aches in sadness,
And secret tears still flow,
What it meant to lose you,
No one will ever know.

But now I know you want me
To mourn for you no more,
To remember all the happy times
Life still has much in store

Since you'll never be forgotten,
I pledge to you today
A hallowed place with my heart
Is where you'll always stay.
