Farewell old friend.
You will be missed.
You’ll always be in our heart & will miss you.
Bye for now uncle Donald.
I will always love you. You were a wonderful for twenty years. Hopefully we will meet again. I was unable to attend your Memorial service do to major medical problem. I know you knew that I really wanted to attend. I believe you are still with me every day. I will always love you. RIP and hope to see you again sooner then later. Please take care of my family that had gone before me. I love you and miss you.
I Can’t believe ten years have passed since you left us for a better place. You are missed by so many. After being together 20 years I have to say it was overall a good time. I wish we would have made it. I love you and I always will. Hope to see you again. Take care of our families and all of the pets that have crossed the rainbow bridge.
