Without words, they supply sounds, scents, and texture to our everyday lives.
Their furry souls exist unconditionally, by our sides, under the table, on the coolest tile, or the warmest trail to nowhere special or somewhere sacred.
While they are present, our ever-lovable companions spread beauty, comedy, continuity, responsibility, laughter, goodness, grace, and wisdom across crowded kitchens, cozy front porches, and boundless backyards.
And, when nature calls and they pad along to another plane, they still remain family, they still inhabit our hearts forever.

For Mason, Katie, Poly, Maggie and all our furry friends who have gone before us.

We’ve been so fortunate to be loved by all of our furry friends. Sue talked me into needing my Millie. I’d be so very lonesome without her
