How Lucy can live on
 

Dang it hurts to lose a fur baby. Losing my baby girl has just cut me to the soul and shredded my heart to pieces. I need to know that my dear Lucy will live on in some small way, so this is what I've done.
First, I made a donation in her memory to Yorkie Haven Rescue. I ask Linda (Ladyjane) to put the money towards defraying the cost of helping a senior pup find their "furever home". That way, Lucy can pay it forward, and another sweet baby will have the chance to live out their sunset days, safe and loved.
I also made a donation to Yorkie Talk. You all know that they need to upgrade their server. Yorkie Talk, (and everyone here) helped me to learn how to be a good mommy to my sweet girl. I ask questions, got advice, and read until my eyes were crossed. I've made friends, shared laughter and pictures, and now, I've been loved and comforted by so many here. I want Yorkie Talk to continue as a place where others can be welcomed, educated, share their happiness, and their tears. I want a place to be here where we can love on each other, and our precious fur babies. I made the donation in Lucy's name, but it is a "thank you" to each and everyone of you here who has loved us on our journey. I want Lucy to live on each time a new friend joins Yorkie Talk, just like we did, 22 months ago. In some small way I just wanted to say "thank you all" for being there for me- and for my sweet Lucy. :angelyork

I wanted to add a "Lucy picture"

Those are sweet and loving gestures for Lucy. I know she is proud of you, Mommie.

Beautifully said. I agree wholeheartedly. I know I often look back over old YT threads to see what I wrote about the ones I've lost and see their smiling faces in happier times. It's comforting to know those memories are preserved.

Oh my, look at that sweet adorable little face. I am so sorry for your loss. I know the pain and its terrible. What you are doing in Lucy's memory is wonderful. RIP sweet baby girl.

I agree, beautifully said, Kim. Two great ways to honor Lucy. :love:

aww i'm sorry to hear about your furbaby Lucy
RIP Lucy

Oh, Kim, I'm so saddened to hear about your sweet baby. I can't imagine how awful you feel without that adorable little face in your life. :( Your post made me cry. What a wonderful way to honor the memory of sweet Lucy. :rbyorkie:

I always plant a tree or shrub or bush of some kind.....usually a rose bush, but also crape myrtles, camillias (sorry, my spelling is still over run with flu bugs), etc.....Your tributes to your precious little Lucy, is soo touching....she was a wonderment in all our lives, through you.....hugs and warm thoughts from all of my crew....

RIP Lucy, your story and how your Mom and Dad saved you will always touch my heart. The last 22 months of your live were nothing but LOVE.

Nicely worded. It's tough losing a pet. Thoughts go out to you!

that really made me tear up. what a wonderful way to remember your lucy. very kind and thoughtful in your time of pain thanking everyone and donating in her honor. wishing you healing as time goes just remember lucy will forever be with you in spirit. hugs. rip lucy.

What a woderful tribute to your sweet Lucy. Doing such things in memorandum really does help the heart to heal. I feel your pain and hurt for you, but I know Lucy passed knowing what true love and caring was - that was because of you. You were both very lucky to find each other :)

What a lovely way to keep Lucy's memory alive. Hugs

Kim and Lucy what a beautiful gesture. Lucy is truly a Yorkie and YT guardian Angel.
