"In Loving Memory of Simba
November 21, 2011 – May 24, 2025

There are souls that walk this earth once in a lifetime—rare, radiant spirits who change everything simply by being. Simba, our beloved Siberian Husky, was one of those souls. From the moment he entered our lives until the heartbreaking day he returned to the heavens on May 24, 2025, Simba was our joy, our light, our heart.

Simba was not just a pet. He was family. He was home. With his stunningly beautiful icy blue eyes, he had the rare ability to look directly into your soul. Just one gaze from him could melt the heaviest heart, as if he were telling you, without words, “I see you. I love you.” His eyes held wisdom, mischief, and love so deep it was almost otherworldly—he truly was a celestial soul, gentle and kind beyond measure.

Simba brought warmth and wholeness to our family in ways words can’t fully express. He was the sunshine that broke through our stormiest days, always greeting us with that big, infectious Husky smile that lit up every room—and every heart. His energy was unmatched: spirited, feisty, and stubborn in the way only a true Husky can be. He was witty and wild, but always sincere and endlessly loving. He cared for every person around him with a devotion that was pure and unconditional.

His presence created a sense of togetherness in our home—he was our glue, our heartbeat. Every tail wag, every joyful howl, every moment of calm with his head resting beside us brought a peace that only Simba could bring. He was there for every milestone, every quiet moment, every celebration, and every sorrow. And now, even in his absence, he continues to hold us close with the power of his memory.

Though the pain of his loss is immeasurable, we take comfort in knowing that Simba is now running free—pain-free—across the Rainbow Bridge. We imagine him with the wind in his fur, his beautiful eyes gleaming, that same big smile on his face, shining down on us with all the love and light he gave in life.

Simba, your soul was one of the most beautiful the world has ever known. You gave us everything—your loyalty, your heart, your joy—and in return, you will forever carry a piece of ours. Your memory will never fade. It will live with us, shine through us, and remain part of our story until the end of time.

Thank you for being our everything, Simba. We miss you beyond words, we love you beyond infinite measure, and we will remember you always & furever.

Run free, our sweet baby boy. You are forever loved. Forever ours. ❤️🌈🐾"

A beautiful tribute for sweet Ginger 🐾🕊

"Ginger entered our lives in 2013, and from the very first moment, her goofy personality was impossible to ignore. She shook her head in excitement at being rescued, wrapped her paws around my shoulders, and lavished me with enthusiastic ear-licks. We remember and celebrate her precious life and the remarkable impact she had on our family. In many ways, she rescued us.

Over thirteen and a half years, Ginger embodied unwavering loyalty. She was present for every major milestone in our lives, and after her passing, she has been joyfully reunited with her beloved bonded sister, Ebony, who left us in September 2023. Ginger also leaves behind her younger sister, Lemon—a Chihuahua she cherished over the past year. Her devotion extended not only to us but to her canine companions as well.

Ginger’s hazel eyes would light up whenever she saw us, especially when she knew it was time for a walk or hike. She adored exploring mountain trails, and her final day was spent on her favorite route: Alderfer and the Three Sisters Trail. After the hike, she consumed an entire ice cream cone in eighty seconds—a testament to her boundless enthusiasm. Remarkably, she was the only dog I have ever known who loved visiting the vet; the team at Indian Tree Animal Hospital adored her hilarious, tail-wagging visits. At home, we will miss her nightly snores, the softness of her velvety Pitbull ears, and that unmistakable wide smile.

She had a peculiar combination of clinginess and independence—always wanting to be by our side (even checking to ensure we didn’t fall into the potty), yet often content to wander off on her own. Though her behavior could be confusing at first, her love for our family was indisputable.

Outside in the garden, Ginger followed her mom around with delight, inspecting each freshly tilled patch of soil and squishing her paws into the earth. She was sent off with a bouquet of orange roses in her memory—her signature flower. She was a master sleeper, requiring her “princess blankie” to cover every inch of her body except her nose—what we affectionately called “everything but the snoot.” When she wanted to sleep or cuddle, this was the only way to capture her, and she would let you know with her signature yawn that let out a high-pitched whine ("eeeeyaw"). Christmas time will feel especially empty without her “Pitter’s Full” pajamas, her elf Lambchop dolly, and her habit of curling up beside us on the couch to watch holiday movies.

Ginger and Ebony were inseparable—a true yin-and-yang pair. They would often snuggle butt-to-butt, snoot-to-snoot, perfectly content in each other’s company. While Ebony was a winter-loving dog who reveled in barreling through snow, Ginger was our summer companion, basking in the sun on the patio with light glinting off her big brown eyes until she drifted off to sleep. When Ebony passed away, we knew Ginger would feel a profound loss; that sorrow only deepened our appreciation for their bond. Ginger then took on a mentorship role for Lemon, teaching her how to “dog” and sharing what she had learned from Ebony. Welcoming Lemon into our home gave Ginger one more spark of joy.

In June 2024, Ginger was diagnosed with lung cancer. Although the surgery went perfectly, we knew that even the best outcome could only offer limited time. Nearly a year later, she began experiencing recurring seizures, likely caused by a brain tumor. We knew it was, heartbreakingly, time to say goodbye. I am so proud of my strong girl—for fighting, for loving, and for staying with us until the very end.

Ginger, you are our strength and our sweet girl. We will always love you as you loved us—unconditionally and without hesitation. From your radiant warmth to your silly antelope dance, you will never be forgotten. We release you from any pain by carrying this grief ourselves, and though our hearts ache, we find peace in knowing you now run free—forever chasing trails in the mountains and greeting us with that wide smile. Until we meet again, dear girl."

A tribute for Evans 🐾💜

"Our gorgeous little Evans (or Evster) was our first tortoiseshell kitty, and though we didn’t understand it at first, we came to experience her “tortitude” in full measure. Sassy, sweet, cuddly, playful, and the tiniest bit annoying (mostly when it was time for her wet food lunch)—Evans held our hearts in her adorable little caramel patties (paws). We only had the luck of her presence and being for about 7 years. She was diagnosed with mammary cancer last month, and it turned out to be quite aggressive.

We knew it was getting close to her time when she wouldn’t leave either of our laps whenever we sat on the couch and when she struggled to climb her kitty stairs even once a day. We’re so grateful for Dr. Jenny and Caring Pathways for making in-home euthanasia an option, and such a peaceful, kind way for us to say goodbye to our sweet girl.

Hope you’re out there somewhere, balling to your heart’s content, Evans."

A Tribute for Bosco 💜🌈

"We had to say goodbye to our sweet old man, Bosco, almost six weeks ago. You made it all the way to 20! I’m so grateful that we had 13 of those years with you. You were our observer, always watching from a high vantage point. Over the last few years, you were able to enjoy your favorite things less and less with the pain you started to experience, so we’re grateful that you are no longer in any pain.

We sure do miss you and all your meowing, letting us know when it was time for treats and cuddles. We will rejoice in the memories of you at your best, and we are so thankful for all the years we had together. Until we meet again, Bos."

A Tribute for Louie & Charlie Brown 🌈🐾

"We let Louie go on 3/21/25 once he started losing his battle with cancer. It was a hard decision to let our younger boy go, even though it was the right one. He was our little gentleman. He gave hugs, liked to smile, and was always wagging his tail. His big ears won him treats at many drive-thru windows, and he was always willing to share the goods with his big brother.

Unfortunately, just a few weeks after saying goodbye to Louie, Charlie Brown was diagnosed with cancer. We said goodbye to him on 5/5/25, six short weeks after Louie. Charlie Brown was my soul dog. In our 13 years together, he endured so much and remained so loving. We went so many places together before and after we found his brother. People always commented on how soft and how handsome he was. When he was in his wheels, people absolutely gushed.

Louie was the protector, and Charlie was the adventurer. We are so devastated by the loss of both of our beagle boys, and the silence in our home is deafening. But I’m so thankful we were able to say goodbye from the comfort of home."

A Tribute for Faith 💜🐾

"Our sweet Faith was loved beyond what words could express. Losing her was one of the hardest things we’ve had to endure—she lived 18 long years. She had her own little personality, unique to her, and let us know she loved us in her own special ways. You’re missed so, so much, sweet Faith. To be able to hold you and kiss you one more time would be heaven—but I know that’s where you’re waiting for us. ❤️"
