One year ago this evening, we lost Roch, the old, stray pittie who trotted into our back room right after we began operation.
Roch lived with us here for only 3 weeks before Hemangiosarcoma, a very aggressive cancer took him from us.
In his 3 weeks, essentially our first 3 weeks in business, Roch became the unofficial face of Not Forgotten Pet Cremation.
He leaned on our clients who needed a gentle soul to cry with. He was a warm, loving soul who offered comfort to all who walked in, mourning the loss of their pets.
He was such a huge part of our organization, even for such a short time.
Later this afternoon, I will be saying goodbye to the family dog of some dear friends of mine. While not my own, C**t has been my buddy for several years. I’ve groomed him countless times, fed him meat from the kitchen counter too often, and have gotten to love on him while sitting on the back porch for a lot of years. His family will miss him terribly, as will I.
Roch and C**t will now share this very special, very emotional date forever. Two of the best boys who weren’t really mine, but who each owned a little piece of my heart. Fly high, boys. 💔🐾
