You took huge
pieces of our hearts with you when you went, Rivie - but you left your
heart here with us.
Many thanks to those who loved her first - her
owners, trainers, the farm, and Halfway Home Greyhounds
for allowing
us to adopt our Rivie. Oprah says "when you lose somebody you love, you
gain an angel that you know"
Angel Rivie, run free, sweetie - you
will be in our hearts always - thank you so much for the wonderful
memories.

Just this side of Heaven is a place called Rainbow Bridge.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 that had been ill or 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 of the pets suddenly stops and looks into the distance. The bright eyes are intent; the eager body quivers. Suddenly, he/she 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 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... (Author unknown) |
