U Rock Girl a beautiful red brindle arrived at my home as a early Christmas present to myself on December 21, 2008, and what a present she turned out to be. The best you would ever want. She was a sweetie pie, great to walk with, fun to tease, loved to be tickled and loved her treats. Girlie gave me happiness, companionship and unconditional love. I will treasure them forever and never forget my Girlie, Girl. Girlie passed on February 24, 2015

The Rainbow Bridge
Just this side of heaven is a place called the Rainbow Bridge.
When an animal dies that has been especially close to someone here, that pet goes to the 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 and 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 suddenly stops and looks into the distance. His bright eyes are intent; his 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; your hands again 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....

Today my family lost a very special member. Our Stormie left us to cross the Rainbow Bridge to be with the rest of the family who were waiting for him, animal and human. We did not expect to lose our gentle being. Too fast, too soon. He will always have a special spot in my heart. My grandson will miss him very much. Love you Stormie, enjoy running in the fields and sleeping on any sofa you can find.
Love,
~ Mom (Cindy Christi), Kate, Beth and Chase, Gracie and Mya will miss you too
