(13)

Since 1924, our sister company, Timson Allen & Melroy funeral home has served families from Marion and Morrow Counties with the kind of small town dignity that makes the people who come through our door feel as though they have come to the home of a friend and not just into another business establishment. It is our pledge to help anyone in their time of need regardless of their race, creed, color

or financial situation and the same will follow with the care of your pets. We wholeheartedly believe that pets are members of the family. Grieving their loss is no different from grieving the loss of our human friends and family. Understanding this, we treat each and every pet in our care with the highest level of compassion, dignity and respect that we offer to all of our families. We know that pet parents want what is best for their pets and we are here to guide you through this difficult process. We are always available to answer any questions or concerns that you may have.The grieving process is unique to each and every one of us and we are happy to handle many special requests. Although, we cannot make things better, we will strive to do our best to make them easier. Many families feel the loss of a pet the same way they would feel the loss of a human family member, and sometimes more. Because our pet’s love is unconditional and they are an important part of your family. Now you have the option of having a company owned by a licensed funeral director and staff to handle your pet individually, in a dignified and caring manner … and provide you, the grieving pet parent, with the same treatment that you would have at our funeral home for any family member.

The Last Battle

If it should be that I grow weak,
And pain should keep me from my sleep,
Then you must do what must be done,
For this last battle cannot be won.
You will be sad, I understand;
Don't let your grief then stay your hand.
For this day more than all the rest,
Your love for me must stand the test.
We've had so many happy years -
What is to come can hold no fears.
You'd not want me to suffer so;
The time has come, so let me go.
Take me where my needs they'll tend
And please stay with me until the end.
Hold me firm and speak to me
Until my eyes no longer see.
I know in time that you will see
The kindness that you did for me.
Although my tail its last has waved,
From pain and suffering I've been saved.
Please do not grieve - it must be you
Who had this painful thing to do.
We've been so close, we two, these years -
Don't let your heart hold back its tears

SUDDEN and UNEXPECTED PET LOSS

Although all pet loss is traumatic, it can be especially hard to cope with when the death of your pet is sudden and unexpected. Tragic accidents such as being hit by a car or attacked by another animal, or a fatal stroke or seizure out of the blue can be almost impossible to accept.

People often talk about grief as a time for finding closure but, when a death is sudden and has occurred in traumatic circumstances, it can be very hard to find peace.

If you have recently lost a pet and it was unexpected, you may feel that life is very unfair. There’s a sense that your companion’s life was unjustly cut short – a life half-lived – with all of that wonderful potential extinguished in a moment.

These are natural, completely understandable feelings.
