Our condolences are sent to our friend Sam Martin on the recent loss of his beloved dog Elphy. There is little that I could add to what Sam homself posted on facebook...
"This will always be a very sad day for me. My little Elphy has passed on and gone over the 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 pets are warm and comfortable.
All the animals that had been ill and old are restored to their vigor; those who were hurt and maimed are made whole and strong again, just as we remember them in our dreams of days and time 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 when one suddenly stops and looks into the distance. His bright eyes are intent; Her 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; and you look once more into the trusting eyes of your dog, so long gone from you life but never absent from your heart.
Then you cross rainbow bridge together. -Author unknown.
Till that day, I love you my baby girl. RIP My beautiful Elphy. February 6, 2008 - April 24, 2014. You really brought out the best in everyone that ever knew you. I love you so so much. We will miss you forever. XOXOXO!!"
