THE LAST WILL AND TESTAMENT OF A VERY SPECIAL COMPANION.

Marc Miller sent this yesterday ...

“ I, your ever-faithful companion because of my burden of my illness upon me, I realize the end of my life is near, so I hereby leave you my words for my Last Will and Testament. I have little to give you in a material way.  So many of your human companions strive for material gain.  You know how this divides families at the end.  There is nothing that I have to bequeath except my love and faith.  These I leave to all those who have loved me. I ask for my owners to remember me always; but not to grieve for me too long.  All my life I have tried to be a comfort to them in sorrow and in indeed joy in their life’s happiness.  It is very painful for me to think that even in death, I am causing them pain. Let them know that I have had a wonderful life but now I am growing ill and have much pain.  I should not want my pride to sink to humiliation.  It is time for me to say “Goodbye.”  It will be very sorrowful to leave you but; not a sorrow for me to die. Animals do not fear death as humans do.  We accept this as part of our lives.  What will become of me after death?  I will be in a place where I will always be young.  A place that will be a paradise for me.  Some people call that “Heaven” Yes, animals have souls.  God has a special place in heaven just for us.    I have another request.  Please find another animal to be at your side.  I know no one can take my place, but I will feel better knowing you are taking special care of another pet.  I will leave that pet my leash, or my collar.  My favorite pillow, or the special place in the car. It would be a poor tribute to me, if no one ever followed me. One last word of farewell dear ones…Whenever you think of me say to yourself that I was the one you loved; and how much you loved me.  No matter how deep my sleep, I shall hear you and not all the power of death can keep my spirit from wagging a grateful tail. May the angels always watch over you as they watch over me.  Remember…I will always be with you in love. Written by Rev. Renee Karen, Non-denominational Minister ”
