Dr. Feeman, I'm sorry to hear that Sky has passed. I rather like Jon Katz' epitath to his dog Orson: "A good dog". It's very simple, but I think it says so much...

" 'Like a Diamond in the Sky' .

 

"In Sky I found Heaven" "

 

 

I like both of these - or how about Like a Diamond Is my Sky...

 

I'm so sorry about Sky

What a shock, just seeing this through my own fog-

I am so sorry for your loss of Sky, Bill.

 

To dear Sky, an angel in flight

who put up the good fight.

To the rainbow bridge you go, but this you must know,

you will be beside me always, forever in my heart. :paw

I'm so sorry to hear of your loss, Dr. Bill. As for the back of Sky's tags, perhaps the phrase "there are no words"? Whatever you decide will be the perfect tribute to your beautiful boy.

"Our Sky is in the heavens."

 

That is EXACTLY what first came to my mind!

 

My condolences, Doctor, and thank you for your advice when I was dealing with Twiggy's case of osteo.

I'm so late seeing this :(

 

I'm very sorry to hear of Sky's passing :(

 

The phrase I like (and I have engraved as part of the little brass plate on the front/top of my dogs cremation caskets) is "Just This Side of Heaven" because it's the first line of the Rainbow Bridge story and it seems very fitting.

I'm so sorry for your loss. I love this sonnet and think the last line is beautiful:

 

Mindful of you the sodden earth in spring,

And all the flowers that in the springtime grow,

And dusty roads, and thistles, and the slow

Rising of the round moon, all throats that sing

The summer through, and each departing wing,

And all the nests that the bared branches show,

And all winds that in any weather blow,

And all the storms that the four seasons bring.

You go no more on your exultant feet

Up paths that only mist and morning knew,

Or watch the wind, or listen to the beat

Of a bird's wings too high in air to view,--

But you were something more than young and sweet

And fair,--and the long year remembers you.

 

Edna St. Vincent Millay
