Welcome to Liza's Rainbow Residency

Memories of Liza

Liza, today was such a special day with you. After the day you had yesterday I knew I could not let you suffer. We had a tough night together and you did give me the look that it was time. After we both shed our tears together last nite, you woke up today vibrant. When I mentioned about going for a ride you perked right up and then ran towards the door. We went to Wendy's to get you your burger and fries and then drove to your favorite park with Luke and Tim. You had your head out the window for one last time. We arrived at the park and you wanted to jump out of the truck but I didn't let you so you wouldn't feel pain. You ran over to the grass and immediately peed like you did every time we arrived. You were happy and limped around. I could tell you were happy to be there but you were in pain and tried not to show it. I knew because you didn't eat your burger or fries. You were relaxed and peaceful and chewed your special stick one last time. You were at peace today which I guess made it the right thing to do but the hardest thing I ever had to do in my life. Your last thing you did before you laid down to rest was to lick my head like you always did. I know you are now at peace even though the pain of your loss is overwhelming. Thank you Liza for the wonderful life you shared with us! You brought so much love and happiness to my life and were a great companion always there with me. I will love you forever! Rest in peace my dearest friend. Love, Your Daddy's Liza, Saturday Morning 5/29/2010 It has been two painful days since you left in peace. I can't do anything wiwthout thinking of you or looking for you by my side. I took my shower yesterday and you weren't there to lick the droplets of water off my legs when I got out of the shower. I cried all day yesterday and Luke laid with me. Tim and Luke miss you terribly, life is not the same for them either. We miss you so much! I hope you are running around with all your special friends and will be waiting when it is our time to cross the Rainbow Bridge. Well today I bring your physical ash home and will make a special place for you surrounded with all the memories we have shared. You are my one and only and cannot be replaced. I am glad you are no longer in pain and with time ours will ease. At this time you are usually laying next to me looking at me, you are not here no matter how hard I look or wish you were, you are in a better place with no pain and running free. Be good my love! Your Daddy's & Lucas miss and love you so terribly much!!! Liza, 6/3/10 It has been a week since you we said our good byes. We miss you terribly! There is such an empty feeling in the house without your loving smile. Luke says hello and is lost without you. He is not eating well and is very blah. He walks over to your little memorial and looks at your ashes every day. Tim, Luke and I went for a walk on the beach like we used to do and we spread some of your ashes on the beach in front our our home. I never want to forget you and have your ashes in 3 places that are a memory for us. First we have your memorial table with the electronic picture frame that has pictures of you and the last video of you running in the park on your final visit, it is so cute, I love to watch it! Next I have a cute little urn with you on the bathroom counter as I remember you always licking the droplets of water off my legs. Finally, I have another small urn in the car with me as you always loved to go for a ride with me no matter how long or short it might be. When we are in the car, I play "I Will Always Love You" for you. Never forget how much you mean to me! I will love you forever my dearest Liza! Liza, 6/27/10 It has been a month see we crossed the Rainbow Bridge. We miss you so very much! Luke is still very lonely and misses you. The summer is here and we are getting ready for the 4th of July cookout. You will be missed by all as they all loved you. At least this year the noise of the fireworks will not bother you. I hope you can see them and enjoy them this year. Your last video still catches our eyes and puts a smile on our face as the last memory with you in the park. While I wished for more time with you, I would have taken our short time together over never having you in my life. You were the best! I miss you curling up with me on the sofa and just wanting to be with me. I am glad you are no longer in pain, enjoy the fields and one day we will be together again. Love you always and miss you very much. Liza, 10/29/10 It has been 5 months since you crossed the rainbow bridge and I still miss you terribly. Today was the first time going to the vet to bring Lucas for his shots. I returned the blanket that kept you warm and delivered a thank you card and chocolates to the staff at Harbor Animal Hospital for the loving care and support they provided during your illness and that special day. As I drove their the pain returned and I found myself in tears thinking of you. It was also Lucas's first time bacj there and he seemed anxious. He remembered this was where he last saw you and of course we had the same room where we said our goodbyes. I showed the staff the pictures of your service and you and Luke dressed for Halloween. We are not dressing Luke this year, it is not the same without you! We love you and miss you. I think this year you should visit us as a ghost and scare Luke! Miss you! Liza, 4/26/11 Spring is in the air and the weather is breaking. Luke and I were outside yesterday working on the gardens missing you running around the yard. I miss you every day and wish you did not have to go. I say good morning to you every day when I turn on your picture frame and see the last video of you running in the park a couple of hours before you passed over the rainbow. Lucas has been quiet and is not interested in playing at the dog park anymore, he misses you too. He wants to be with me all the time and has anxiety if I leave the house without him. He just has a large fatty deposit removed and has been healing for the last two weeks. He is still wearing the collar, and if you remember that night he got trapped in the bathroom hours before we were having people over and destroyed the bathroom, he did it again on Sunday. He went in the bathroom and got himself locked in and then destroyed the blinds, door, woodwork, towels and rugs. He misses playing with you on the beach and I miss you running and swimming in the bay. I hope you are well, miss you and love you! Liza, 5/27/11 Liza, it has been a year since you passed over the rainbow bridge and you are still greatly missed. Every morning I turn on the photo frame with your pictures and video and say good morning. You are still present in our home and you will never be forgotten. I miss your loving ways and that smile. Lucas misses you too. I took him on the beach and let him go in the water for a little bit but it is not the same without you. He just doesn't have the same interest in playing since you are not here. I have been thinking of another dog as a companion for Lucas and one night I felt you letting me know that I should adopt a dog in need as you know they would have a loving home and be cared for just as you were, as a special member of the family. You can never be replaced, but I think it is now time to share our home and love with another special friend. I know that Luke will never forget you and I think it is time to share the love and save a dog from a shelter. I miss you and love you!
