Shadow ~ Ashley's girl has gone to the bridge...

[Freedom]

RIP, dear girl, you are now a Shadow in the Wind, brushing past Ashley's cheek, nudging gently on her leg, letting her know you are near and doing well. Keeping and eye on the little girl you loved, who grew into a woman as you outgrew your puppyhood. You both grew up together a bond which will unite you both for Eternity.

RIP, dear girl.

Beyond The Rainbow

As much as I loved the life we had and all the times we played,
I was so very tired and knew my time on earth would fade.
I saw a wondrous image then of a place that's trouble-free
Where all of us can meet again to spend eternity.

I saw the most beautiful Rainbow, and on the other side
Were meadows rich and beautiful -- lush and green and wide!
And running through the meadows as far as the eye could see
Were animals of every sort as healthy as could be!
My own tired, failing body was fresh and healed and new
And I wanted to go run with them, but I had something left to do.

I needed to reach out to you, to tell you I'm alright
That this place is truly wonderful, then a bright Glow pierced the night.
'Twas the Glow of many Candles shining bright and strong and bold
And I knew then that it held your love in its brilliant shades of gold.

For although we may not be together in the way we used to be,
We are still connected by a cord no eye can see.
So whenever you need to find me, we're never far apart
If you look beyond the Rainbow and listen with your heart.

Wonderful tribute Ashley. I feel I got to know Shadow through your words. What a beautiful soul. God sure needed a whole lot of special angels these last couple of weeks. Have fun at the bridge, Shadow.

Oh Ashley...my heart breaks for you. Shadow was a remarkable girl and reading your post on her was happy sad, all the sweet sweet memories you have of her. I am sending loving ((hugs)) your way. Rest is peace beautiful Shadow, you will forever be greatly missed.

That is a beautiful tribute, Ashley. I didn't get any closeups head on, but found several pics of Shadow from the last year's Memorial day pic- nic, just before we left Ohio:
Shadow, smiling for the group pic!

Oh My - I have been away from the board too long.

I was so sorry to read about Shadow. You wrote a beautiful tribute, and she sure was a beautiful girl.

HUGS to you across the miles
