Oh, My Baby Rumor, Your life was so short, but you made the best of it, always a happy girl. You looked so much like your mother, Reba, RanLyn's One Honest Heart, I had a hard time telling you apart at times. You were my bed bug always sleeping next to me. I miss you so. You have your family in Heaven, Leah, Rose, Reed, Reba and Hannah. Behave yourself or they will get after you like they did here on earth. The only pictures I have of you are when you were young. Until we meet again, take care, Baby Girl. Love, Denise Brown |

| My Dear Rose, You didn't have a very good start to life. When I saw you for the first time you were just about a year old. You had so many things to work through but you did it. You managed to get over your fear of noises like the firelace crackling. That was a huge victory in your life. You were the first to sit on the couch next to strangers when they came to visit. You were my foundation girl. You gave me Lily, RanLyn Rejoice, and her sister Hannah, RanLyn Romance, who just left April 25, 2009, to join you. Watch after her as you always did. Rest well, Sweet Rose Love, Mom

| Dearest Emmy, You were the love of my life. We had many great times together just you and I. We will have more. Please know that I miss you terribly and that you can never be replaced. You were one of a kind. Our life will never be the same again. You gave us so much joy and happiness during our 14 years together. Now that you are out of pain, you can run and play. Have fun with your brother, Barnie. May God keep and keep you in His arms. I love you, Emmygirl! Mom |

"Lassie" 1993 - February 6, 2009 |

Lassie at age 5, me at age 9 |

Lassie was originally my grandmother's dog. My grandmother got Lassie when she was around a year old and we became best friends instantly. As a puppy she was very hyper, fun loving and always a bundle of energy. She loved running around the big backyard, around the swimming pool, and chasing people's feet. As she got older she became more reserved, mature and laid back. She was honestly the only dog I ever trusted back then because I was weary of how dogs acted. But Lassie restored my faith in dogs and showed me that dogs can be trusted and very loving. She still is today the nicest dog I have ever met; she didn't have a bad bone in her body. Lassie loved kisses and belly rubs and sneaking u p on the couch when my Grandfather wasn't home. When she was around 14 she started leaking urine and we could tell she wasn't her usual fun self. Lassie also got hip problems and we had to put her to sleep at the age of 16 when she lost a lot of her eyesight and was walking into walls and getting stuck in-between furniture. She will always be in my heart and my true first best friend. Love, Rachel |
It is with a broken heart that I said good-bye to RanLyn's Fan Dancer "Feather" who was set free to use her wings at 1:00 p.m. May 2, 2009. Feather was the daughter of Hannah, who I lost last Saturday. She was my little show girl, taking Best Of Breed over Specials when she was 3 years old. She loved the show ring and never let me down with her go-for-it attitude. She was blind from an accident 6 years ago this Father's Day. That never stopped her from playing ball with the rest of the dogs. We would give her a tennis ball and away she would run around the yard, thinking she was the queen of the group because she had possession of the ball. If she dropped it she somehow found it again. When I moved furniture she would run into it but she would remember the next time she came by. She knew her way around and there were times when it was just her and me in the house and she would want to play. She would start running around the house and to my amazement wouldn't run into anything. I would be sitting on the sofa and she would race at me and jump, landing next to me just so pleased with herself. She was my special little girl. Take care of your mom. I miss you both so much. Love, Denise Brown |
Seminole Dreams Of Fame
"Pepper"
February 3, 1995 - November 23, 2008
|
Pepper joined our family shortly
after we learned that Laddie,
one of our first shelties, had
cancer. We did not want his
sister to mourn him extensively,
so we sought out another sheltie
to keep her company. And so,
Pepper was a very bright spot in
our lives, even through the
deaths of Laddie and Lassie. She
even accepted Ginger, a sheltie
rescued from the pound, into her
home. She was a tough little
dog. She rarely showed her age
when walking because she would
always take the lead. If there
was a squirrel in front of her,
it was best to get out of her
way. When afflicted with a
benign oral growth, she survived
the loss of part of her jaw with
little trouble. Despite being
almost fourteen, she was still
very proud. But, sadly, she
suffered from a gastric torsion
last fall. Quickly going into
shock, my family knew that it
was unlikely she could survive
any surgery. It was kinder to
let her go. Part of me will
always regret that I could not
hold her as I held Lad and
Lass. We all miss her very much.
Ginger seemed to take her loss
well, but my family decided to
look for another sheltie. So,
hailing from the same place as
Pepper, Sabrina has joined the
family. It still hurts to be without Pepper, even after all these months. But, at least she can now chase squirrels and rabbits with Laddie and Lassie, whole and without any pain. You will be forever missed by us all. "You may be gone, and we will move on, but we will always remember you." Jean |
