You're welcome...It's our gift for your Dear Natalie. |
How wonderful that you were sent that box. Its pretty. I have a beautiful urn, that doesnt quite look like an urn, filled with my beloved cat Nitro's ashes. She was one month shy of 14 when she passed 4-17-07 of kidney failure. Its on my mantle, with her collar on top of it. Next to it is a beautiful picture I had taken of her at 6 months old. At least once a week I put my hand on it and say "hi mama" ( called her lil mama )...I miss her so. Every day it gets easier but sometimes you have to reflect and the tears that flow are the ones that are coming from all the good times we had together that are missed. HUGS Dena Stacy |
Sorry So sorry about Natalie, as you know, I so know how you feel having lost my 2 little furkids in the past couple of months :cry: This is a wonderful place to share these feelings and the people here are so caring.....My thoughts are with you and the little one ;-( |
OMG... I just saw this! Dena, I am sooo sorry for your loss! Just remember she had a wonderful life & she knows you loved her very much! I have a very sick fur baby myself. I think we're going to lose our little baby Max & I can't imagine life without him. Rest in Peace, Little Natalie! |
What's wrong with little Max? I looked for a post but didn't find one. What's wrong with your little guy? |

I love my little buddy so much... I can't stand the thought of losing him! He's got a wonderful specialist though... who has him on several medicines to help with the side effects of these diseases, but unfortunately there is no cure. As long as he's not suffering... all we can do is keep him happy, extremely loved & extremely spoiled! (He's laying here proofing this, at the moment) :D Thanks for asking about him... |
Natalie's Urn... 1 Attachment(s) I know it's been quite some time since my little Natalie passed away.... and I wasn't sure where else to put this, but I just wanted to share for a second.... After Natalie rested... Jeanie (YorkieMom55) was SUCH a wonderful source of support for me.... Jeanie, you'll never know what your kindness meant to me during that sad time... In fact, SO MANY of you have been such a source of strength for me since I found YT.... We have experienced such an outpouring of love and kindness... it's unbelievable! And I thank you all, once again... Jeanie and her husband Chuck designed and built a beautiful little "urn" to hold my Nattie's ashes.... The light wood is from an ash tree that grew in their yard and the dark wood is curly walnut that grew in Chuck's son's yard there in Michigan... I could feel the love and kindness that went into building this precious piece from the moment I touched it... and I have held it close to me ever since.... yet I haven't, until now, been able to decide on how to accent the box in Natalie's memory. I thought I wanted a sweet little Yorkie figurine... searched for months and never was able to find just the "right one"... then I thought, a photo of Nat.... but I have so many of those, everywhere... I wanted something different to adorn her urn.... This is what finally touched me...... and how it turned out.... it's simple, not flashy or lavish... but it seems perfect to me... (the flower cameo on the front is of "Forget-Me-Not" flowers... I thought it fitting.) Tucked inside, is the tiny little floral container holding Natalie's ashes... her pink polk-a-dot jammies that she loved so much, made by Des - - a very special photo of she and I together... and her favorite teensy tiny little pink teddy bear that was given to her by one of the techs when she stayed in the OSU vet hospital... Anyway, I just wanted to share and thank Jeanie and Chuck once more for sharing a special piece of themselves with me and my Natalie.... |
omg!!! im crying right now... what a sweet thing to do...i could only imagine how touched you are receiving that.. |
Oh Dena, that is beautiful :) I have tears of joy from Natalie's short but very precious life, that touched my heart through her whole journey. Very beautiful, and you can definately feel the love that was put into it. :) |
That is so beautiful. What a wondeful resting place for baby Natalie. Chuck did an amazing job. |
That turned out really beautiful Dena. And the box is so lovely. What a wonderful gesture for them to do for you! Little Natalie definitely deserved it. |
Dena, just reading your post brought tears again. Oh how I loved your Natalie, you must miss her so much! Do you still feel her around you? You have done a wonderful job on her "urn" and it was so sweet of Jeanie and Chuck to send it to you. Fly with the angels sweet Natalie, I miss you. Sheilagh |

Sometimes I do get a little "whisp" of air go by... or a little tingle... but that's likely my wishful thinking that these little spirits still surround us after they've passed... who knows... I miss her terribly.... folks say that with time, the pain eases - and it gets easier to move on.... I guess I'm just not there yet. Of course, I keep her memory alive with photos and what my girlfriend calls a "shrine", hahaha..... I don't think "shrine" so much as just keeping sweet memories a part of my daily life... On the wall of the playroom I've been re-doing for the babies - - is a space dedicated to Natalie... I always tell the furbutts, when we're snuggled down quietly together... how there was once a beautiful little princess York named Natalie.... and proceed to go on with the story.................... so, I was delighted to find some wall decor with the saying "There once was a beautiful princess"... - - - so I added to that, a photo of my girl.. and under that some other wall art reading "fly with the angels" and "dance with the stars".... :) The table beneath it, holds my favorite photo of Nat in her GoFetch pj's just days before her passing... and the "urn" that Jeanie and Chuck sent for her ashes.... The new pink bassinett / playpen that we gave Nattie on Christmas morning (that she never got to sleep in, as she passed on Christmas night) - still stands empty.... Perhaps we'll be lucky enough to be joined one day, with another special little girl who will bring with her, the light, love and joy that our precious Natalie once shared with us! I hope you are well Sheilagh, I haven't seen you on much.... warm hugs to you and yours! |
Memorial *sniff* oh why do i put on eyeliner I just wanted to let you know I am sorry for you loss and i know the feeling of the desire to feel there cuddles one more time (((((((((((((((hugs))))))))))))))))))) |
I admire the way you express your grief and honor your angel. Thanks for sharing her with us all and for the update. Your furbaby room is just precious and keeping Natalie a part of it makes it extra special. |
