It’s hard when we lose one of our “fur babies”. It’s comforting to know that they are no longer in pain and in the arms of God. ❤️ 🐶 🐱

A Letter from the Rainbow Bridge

Hi, Mom, Dad,
Now that I’ve been across The Rainbow Bridge for a couple weeks, they said I should write a letter home. Sorry, Mom but I’m so busy ‘across the bridge’ that I haven’t thought of home much. They said it’s okay and that you would understand. I hope you do. (I think you will.)
Remember that night when I wasn’t feeling very well and we were all crying? I don’t remember much, but I do remember seeing and hearing all of you and feeling your touches and hugs…I remember hearing “we love you” and that one last command of “Go through”. I didn’t know what you meant, so I turned around and walked through the fog that was in front of me. I saw the biggest bridge I’ve ever seen! And so many friends on the other side of it! They were all playing with toys and balls! You were right to tell me to go there!
My feet kept moving forward, but my heart kept pulling me back. Your touches became lighter and lighter and I wanted to come back and nudge your hands for more love, but I was overcome by this feeling of curiosity for the happy place over the bridge! My feet started moving on their own, like a gentle breeze was moving them forward for me! I can’t explain it, but I had no doubt that it was the right thing to do!
So, I walked across that big, huge bridge by myself! I looked for you, because you’re always by my side, walking with me, but this was different. I didn’t have a collar around my neck or a leash connecting me to you ~ I was ‘free’! Even though you weren’t there with me, I never felt alone! I actually felt like I had a huge cape of love wrapped around my body and the more I walked, the easier it was to breathe! So, I kept walking! And I would feel more warmth in the big hug, so I kept on walking! I eventually made it over the big bridge – I did it by myself, mom. When I got here, all of my new friends greeted me and helped me walk off the bridge ~ it was so cool! They gave me a pair of wings and said that I was now a Guardian Angel!
What I’ve learned over these past few weeks has been amazing and nothing like I’ve seen before! We’re all the same up here ~ we all have wings and we all have Forever People to watch over ~ that’s YOU, mom !You’re my Forever Person and I’m your Forever Dog! We had such a great life together and I do miss you a LOT, but please know that I am so happy in my new home across The Bridge!
I’ll send you another Earth Angel so you won’t be alone. Give them your whole heart, like you gave it to me. I’ll check in every so often to make sure they treasure your love ~ I always did! When you miss me, think of a rainbow and know I’m on the other side of it, waiting to walk with you again. I’ll always be in your heart. I love you, mom!
Time for me to go play...

We love the Highmark Caring Place! It’s a special place for kids who are experiencing grief from loss..

“If you are lucky enough to have a great one, they never really leave. They stay with you as long as you live, harnessed to your heart, giving their all, always!”

Thanks so much to our wonderful Board Member Sally Wiggin and the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette’s Abby Kirkland for bringing attention to pet loss grief and some unique ways to memorialize and honor these beloved pets.

Our hearts have been heavy this week as we think about the families who lost their precious children and loved ones.

We grieve with the Uvalde community and our thoughts are with the funeral homes and last responders who are providing services to the families at no charge.

PIMS was honored to be able to make a donation to the Tragedy Fund established by the Texas Funeral Directors Associaton who is collecting donations to help defray the cost of services they are providing to the victims’ families.

We encourage our fellow mortuary schools and colleagues to do the same 💚

With Memorial Day right around the corner, have you ever been in a cemetery and saw coins laying on a headstone?
A coin left on a headstone lets the deceased soldier’s family know that somebody stopped by to pay their respect.
