Good by My Friend....

[prechrswife]

I am so very sorry for your loss. RIP, Tubby.

[Uniqueviking]

Although words seem to say so little,
I hope they help in some small way
to ease the sense of loss
that you're experiencing today.

Hold fast to your memories
to all of the cherished moments
of the past,
to the blessings and the laugther,
the joys and the celebrations,
the sorrow and the tears.
They all add up to a treasure
of fond yesterdays
that you shared and spent together,
and they keep the one you loved
close to you in spirit and in thought.

The special moments
and memories in your life
will never change.
They will always be in your heart,
today and forevermore.

(Linda E. Knight)

I'm so sorry to hear the Dear Tubby is gone. May he rest in peace

[Lacey]

I'm so sorry! Lots of love and prayers being sent your way! Sweet Tubby will be missed so much!

[Tubby & Peanut's Mom]

Thank you so much everyone. I was going to put together a memorial thread with how much he meant to me with some pictures through the years, but I just can't do it. I did gather the pictures though, so here you go. Imagestation is probably going to boot me after this, but I really don't care.

I am so shocked and saddened at this news. I'm so sorry that I didn't even realize that he was sick.

I am so sorry for your loss. Rest in peace sweet Tubby, you will be missed sorely.

My heart is breaking for you, Debbie. Please accept my deepest sympathies for your loss. We will all miss Tubby; he touched so many of our lives here on PT. Rest in peace always, Tubby.

I hope this poem will bring you a bit of comfort...

Look not where I was
For I am not there
My spirit is free
I am everywhere

In the air that you breathe
In the sounds that you hear
Don't cry for me Mom
My spirit is near

I'll watch for you
From the other side
I'll be the one running
New friends by my side

Smile at my memory
Remember in your heart
This isn't the end
It's a brand new start

Debbie...I've been out all day doing volunteer work and just seeing this now. I can't tell you how hard I'm crying right now. Dear sweet little Tubster....he was doing so well. I guess his little body just couldn't take it anymore. Please, please call me if you want to talk. I'll be up for another 5 or so hours. I have to do volunteer work tomorrow as well but will be home in the evening after 6pm.

Tubby: you are still very special to me and I've saved all the videos that your Meowmie has posted. Rest easy little one. I look forward to meeting you when I get there someday. I'll always love you.

{{{{HUGS}}}} Debbie.
Much love

Debbie I was so sad to read about your precious furbaby Tubby, Tubby was a beautiful kitty, looks a lot like my lexie, even the same white chest dot, my heart goes out to you at this very sad time, and I wish you did not have to go through this awful pain, my sincere condolences to you and your husband, its been an honour and a pleasure to have known Tubby through PT.

Hugs to you all , and know we are thinking of you , and wanting to bring you as much comfort as we can.

What sweet pictures, Debbie.
I love the one of him and Terry.
Please let him know that we're all thinking of him as well.

[Jods]

Debbie,
I am terribly sorry for your loss... You and your family will be in my thoughts and prayers.

[Cinder & Smoke]

Dear Debbie and Terry ~

I offer my deepest sympathy.
Wish I could be there to give you both a heartfelt {{{hug}}}.

We've all been blessed by meeting and loving Tubby through your
posts - and we'll never forget him.
I'm sorry that I never purrsonally met him - I had hoped that we'd solve
that problem in the spring at Findlay - since he so enjoyed Trips
in the MotorHowze... a Trip to Findlay seemed a sure thing.
Not to be...

I've lost a few very Beloved FurKids over the years...
It isn't easy... a lot of tears are yet to be shed...
But what does help is to share the memories -
Remember the Good Times...
The Frisky Kitten;
The NawTee teenager;
The (sometimes) Loving Senior...
Tubby shared his life with you ~ Rejoice in those Memories.

{{{HUGS}}} to you, Deb; Terry; and Peanut.

With Love,
/s/ Phred
