OUR FOREVER FRIENDS & THANK YOU'S FROM THEIR PEOPLE.... PLEASE TELL US ABOUT YOUR FOREVER FRIEND AND INCLUDE A PHOTO to foreverfriendspc@hotmail.com
DIXIE BELLE GRAY Hi Angel, I picked up my sweet Dixie Belle's ashes on Tuesday morning. In the picture she is the Bassett Hound with her front paws on the dash of the Polaris. The picture was taken just 2 days before she passed. She loved riding in the Ranger with us. Always so daring ready to jump out if we passed barking dogs. We are so glad she is back home with us but we believe her spirit is in heaven taking other dogs on long hikes everyday just like we always did. Thanks for the care you provided our Dixie Belle. Mike, Dot Gray and Katie Rose
"Sweetie" Landreth-Burke I just wanted to write and thank you for the beautiful way in which you dealt with my kitty Sweetie. I had her for 20 years and although it was obvious the end was near for her - it was very sad for us. When my husband brought the bag you prepared home - I burst into tears. I read all of the wonderful poems you enclosed and we had a good cry. :) Thank you again for what you do. Sincerely, Julie Landreth & John Burke Cedar City
"JANE" G. It is with a huge hole in our hearts that we write you. Our last baby girl went to play and wait our arrival this evening. I am hoping she finds the snow drifts she so desperately missed here in St George. A great big belly flop into a snow drift was her favorite activity. Next would be waiting for that squirrel to make a false move. My husband and I appreciate your timely, courteous service during this difficult time. Thank you and Bless you, Jane's Mom and Dad
"BUCKY" Wellhoff Once again we had to call in Forever Friends to assist in our loss. Our little bully passed away due to issues related to gastrointestinal problems. It is very sad to say goodbye to such a little guy. The toys he played with are now sitting in the corner untouched next to his bed. His corky little way he ran to someone to play will never be forgot. Even though his life was short he touched our hearts. Such a well behaved and fun loving little guy. You will be missed Bucky..... Thanks again Angel,, You are the best.....
From "MAGGIE" DECKER's parents... Hi Angel & Company, I picked up my dog Maggie's remains from Dr. Cathy today. You did a marvelous job with the speed and quality you showed for my great little dog. I would also like to compliment you for the honor you gave my pet and the concern for our feelings at this most difficult time. I had Maggie for 14 of her 16 years and she was a treasure to me all that time. She was friendly, faithful, and great fun. I will miss her, but I know she is in a better place. I have enclosed a picture of us in better times - in fact, just after we moved to Utah. Thank you once again, Earl & Connie Decker
"Peanut" Wellhoff My little pomeranian "Peanut" passed away on Valentine's Day this year. It was very heart breaking even though we knew the end was near. He was 15 years old, but still my baby. He loved nothing more than to be loved and loved to tell secrets. In his last days he loved to hang out under his favorite tree in the backyard and bathe in the sun. He had a favorite hoodie that he wore all the time. He hated when I would take it off to wash it, so he was put to rest in it. When the time did come I did not know what to do, but I remembered and ad I saw a few weeks prior. Even though it was Sunday, Angel at Forever Friends answered and took care of Peanut that day. She was so friendly and professional, she helped me feel good with my decision. Thank you for all you have done Angel. Thanks again Koni

FLOPPY The Turkey - Floppy's legs never formed correctly, she couldn't walk, she rather flopped around, but we still loved her. Her best friend and protector was Waylen The Turkey. Waylen and Floppy were together until Floppy pasted on. In Heaven, Floppy can run with all the other turkeys.
"WINSTON" VALENCIA Winston was only with us for a short time, but he was very loved. We miss him sleeping with us every night. He has touched our hearts and was the sweetest little kitten we could have ever asked for.
"ROCKO" VAN VALKENBURG Oct 2004 - August 2008 Rocko was hand-raised and bottle fed as a newborn, his mother disappeared shortly after her litter was born. I adopted Rocko when he was 6 weeks old, he was such a loving, cuddly, sweet kitten and cat. He moved with me from CA to UT with his orange-tabby brother, Irish. Rocko was always so much more adventurous. We all, especially Irish, miss Rocko so much!
VICE "BABY KITTY" BURBANK Aug 2008 - Summer 2009 We only had Vice for a year, but in that year he was the best little friend that a 1 year old boy could have. Every morning Vice would climb into my son Tyver's bed for snuggle time with Tyver when Tyver woke up. Vice would lay there while Tyver pulled his ears and mauled him. Tyver would carry Baby Kitty everywhere he went. Tyver loved "Baby Kitty". Vice was very adventurous and loved to go outside, until one night Vice didn't come home. Baby Kitty we all love you very much,. and Tyver misses you and loves you! Our house hasn't been the same since you left.
Willow Stephenson (Willow & Karen) Willow was found as a puppy in a Utah wilderness are and lived with us until 16. He slept on our bed every night until cancer got him.
JASMINE STEPHENSON Jasmine out black lab at 12 years old.....
Lucky Stephenson A favorite photo of Lucky when barely an adult. His eyes were so beautiful and overall he matched the artificial leaves and baker's rack he sat on. When we were away he would lay there as it was next to the door.
Lucky Stephenson Karen & Lucky. Lucky was a feral kitten and with his dad Linus lived under our shed. Karen took care of them and when we moved we trapped them. They became very good house pets after living in our garage.
TID BIT STEVENS Tid Bit and her sister, Little Bit, were born under my daughter's house to a stray mom. We rescued them both 8 1/2 years ago. Tid bit is on the left with the half mustache, green eyes. She has always been a pack rat, taking little things and hiding them. She was always very playful and very social when people came to visit! She loved her treats and made sure we knew when it was treat time! I think her name should have been Sassy! She made sure her place in bed was right between us up by the pillows. Whenever we played cards she would come up to the table and steal the rubber bands and play with them. Then we found that she was eating them so kept them away from her. She became one of our 'children' after we had an empty nest and will be greatly missed by us and her sister. We are very grateful to Washington Family Vet Clinic who took compassionate care of her when she became sick and for you for your loving care after her demise. Thank you all so much!
Bubba Campuzano 5-1-1997 - 6-29-2010 We got our "Bubba" a red heeler, when he was 5 weeks old at the Cedar Livestock Auction. There was a litter there that they were giving away FREE. He had been chosen but brought back because they didn't want a male dog.We took him and he was the best, smartest, happy, loving dog. He was with us 13 years and 2 months. He didn't live the life of a cattle dog. He had a life of making us happy and watching over us. No one came on the porch with out our Bubba letting us know, he had a powerful bark, it was never tested to see if he'd let you in. We sure do miss our buddy "Bubba", that name just fit him. Bubba those people who brought you back sure missed out on a wonderful, loyal dog.
BUDDY MARCHAL
Angel: Thank you very much for the special service you have provided for my daughter, Makenzie. Making that difficult decision and taking him in was the hardest thing I have ever done - he was the man of our home for 15 years. My daughter chose to have her "Buddy" cremated and after seeing the remarkable and touching way you preserved his memory for her, I recommend it to anyone. The paw print and poems were so personal and touching. He is missed every day and we are very thankful to have such treasures to represent his place in our home. We know his spirit lives on and we cherish his place in our lives. Thank you, again, for your heartfelt service. Deena Marchal
Rex Tone Ashment
Born June 14, 2000, Rex was the runt of the litter. He was 6 weeks when he came into our family and has always been loving. He was a beagle, barking, sniffing and all around playful. He loved treats too, especially snauages and milk bones. He was never mean to the kids and he learned very well. He was always mellow and slept most of the time, but he was a great dog; one that is truly special and kind to others. When he was diagnosed with cushings disease and cancer, it tore me and the family apart. He was our man! Throughout the course of this sickness, he gained weight and then lost it the last couple of months. The day before we put him down, his foot doubled in size. It was cancer. My family and I watched as they put him to sleep. My daughter and I held on to him for his last breath and we didn't know it was going to be this hard. We all didn't want to leave him, but he is in a better place now, playing with his cousin Roughus. Thank you so much for what you have done! He'll always be with us no matter where we go, but he'll remain in our hearts forever. We hope to meet him soon and be together forever.
TUFF
Tuff was named after a World Champion Bull Rider Tuff Hedeman and his name was very fitting to his personality. He was the BEST dog and friend that anyone could ever ask for. I feel Tuff was my winning lottery ticket, and God truly blessed me by bringing him into my life . He brought so much joy and happiness to my son and I, and we were with him until the end. We are absolutely devastated that he is gone. I know that he is in a better place, and until we are together again Tuff…just know that we love you and miss you very much. Tuff will Always be in my heart, mind, body, and soul.
Tuff Houghton
August 20, 1999 to December 11, 2010.
BRIE
She came to us as an unwanted puppy in 1997. Always quiet, but always very active, alert and sensitive to people's needs. She lived to chase a frisbee, swim when ever she could, and run, run, run everywhere! We appreciate the thoughtful nature in the way you do business and the way you delivered her to our home. We transferred her ashes to a cool glass jar where she will sit on a shelf next to those that came before her. - C.Stevenson

JAKE "JACOB" LETTICE Jake was my baby, the love of my life. Born Oct 16, 2001 - Died March 3, 2010 A beautiful dog with such personality!! The kind of dog you could take anywhere with out a leash! He always stayed with his Mama, I always felt safe, loved and comforted with my Jake! My Good Ol' Boy is deeply missed by friends and family! Thank You for taking Such Good Care of my Baby!

Sunshine Dottie
Angel, Thank you for taking such good care of our little girl. She's at home with us now, safe in her urn, nestled in her water bowl. Your care, your understanding, your presence has been a real comfort to both Brenda and myself. As the caretaker in a nearby pet cemetery here in Kanab I had occasion to see your work and was able to highly recommend your services to anyone who asked. Now I have first-hand experience. The respect you afforded our little girl surely shines through in everything you do. Thank you. Uncle Lenny
KOBE Sorensen
Angel, I just got home yesterday and my roommate said that you had delivered Kobe's ashes. Although it brought another wave of emotion, I was very pleased with what you had done. The urn is very nice and I really appreciate the card with his paw print as well as the lock of hair. And although
I have not been able to bring myself to read the poems included just yet, it is very comforting to know that you provided more than just a service for my Kobe. It is very hard to lose such a special friend, but it helps to know that there is compassion from others. Thanks again for your great service. Just a quick background on Kobe. I came across Kobe about 9 years ago as he was wandering around looking for food and shelter. I set out on a search to find his owners, thinking that such a special dog had to be lost. When my search failed, I decided to go ahead and adopt him as my own. That decision gave me 9 years of the most unconditional, non-judgemental love from a great friend that I will never forget. His favorite activity was going to Navajo Lake to play fetch. As most Labs do, he absolutely loved being in the water, especially if there was a tennis ball involved. He was a very influential dog, impacting almost everyone that came into contact with him. Kids flocked to him and adults instantly picked up on his playful and loving nature. Kobe, my best friend, will truly be missed forever but will never be forgotten. Respectfully, Shane Sorensen
TIGER TIROTTA
Thank you for taking such good care of my beloved Tiger. He was my best friend and soul mate. I am very pleased with your services. I will recommend you to friends and family. I work at Best Friends and had friends tell me about you. God bless you in your work. Take Care....Lisa Tirotta
In loving memory of Tiger 3/1994 -12/12/2010
Thank you again for taking such good care of my boy. Tiger is at home with me once again. I have all of his favorate toys next to him and some of his pictures. I talk to him everyday. He gave me love and joy for sixteen wonderful years. I love him and miss him so much. Take care, Lisa Tirotta
Toby Gutierrez
Toby, Nothing could have been harder then saying good bye to my girls bestfriend. He has been in our lives for since 2000 he was almost 2 when we got him. Toby slept on my girls bed every night. He barked for no reason (we thought) sometimes. In 2008 Toby was struck by a duelly truck that he'd been chasing. He was fixed up as much as they could but had a hair line fracture in his hip they could do nothing for. He seemed to heal up, but then some tumors appeared on his abdomen. His run became a walk, his walk became a wobble... then he couldn't walk at all. He could no longer climb the stairs to sleep on my girls bed. It broke their hearts, they missed his warmth. My husband had lost his job that Feb. I worked for the hospital, but didn't make much. We called around to find out how much it would cost us to have Toby put to sleep and cremated. We couldn't let him suffer any longer. But I didn't have the money. So my sister told my girls to make a lemonade stand and she baked cookies and bagged them up. The Girls made signs " Help Us Help Toby" but only one person stopped, his name was Rob. he told the girls he couldn't have sugar but gave them 3 dollars. The girls Alexis, Lelani, Mykala and their cousin Annalee were so proud. But it wasn't enough. No one else stopped for the girls. But there is a God and a gracious one I might add. Rob had come back along with his wife. They told us that they understood how it is to have a beloved pet that is suffering and not be able to afford to help them. So they said they were going to pay for the whole thing. We were just in awe that they came to Toby's rescue. They called Zion Vet Clinic here in Hurricane and made an appointment that afternoon. They also called Forever Friends PC to have him brought back home to his loving family. We received him back about a week later. The packaging was so beautiful, the poems were perfect and made it a little easier on us. His paw print... Speachless. I cant Thank You all enough. My family gets to have him Forever as our Friend, Thanks to your wonderful services.
Thank You All, The Gutierrez Family
P.S. Im not to great a writing letters, I bawled through this one. I just want to say we love and miss him.
I dont even know what to say but that im so grateful to have him here with us, thanks to you Forever FriendsPC. Toby passed almost a year to the day on March 12, 2010. It was one of the hardest days for our family, Im crying just typing you this message. Its an extraordinary story of how this all came to be... Thank You Eternally, The Gutierrez Family
EVANGELINE BERNSTEIN
Thank you, Angel, for your thoughtful treatment of my beloved cat, Evangeline. Once a stray, she visited every home in the neighborhood, and chose mine. She enjoyed playing with her dog brother, Mischa, and then lay beside him and comforted him in his last days. I can hardly bear to believe that she is gone, but my sadness is lifted when I remember that she was my special friend for thirteen lucky years. We will meet again one day at the Rainbow Bridge Sheila Bernstein
