One Year Later...Remembering Our Beloved Angel Coco

Coco
May 29th, 2005 - March 19 2010
"Do not stand on my grave and weep; I am not there. I do not sleep.
I am a thousand winds that blow. I am the diamond glints on snow.
I am the sunlight on ripened grain. I am the gentle autumn's rain.
When you awaken in the morning's hush, I am the swift uplifting rush
Of quiet birds in the circled flight. I am the soft stars that shine at night.
Do not stand at my grave and cry; I am not there. I did not die."
- Unknown
Here is Coco's sister Chanel sitting next to Coco's urn:
Here is Peanut sleeping on Coco's treasure box of favorite toys and other special items:
One of my favorie photos of Coco. She was in a remission at the time that lasted about a year. No matter what was happening then, everything seemed great during this time:
Here is Sasha. We adopted her five weeks to the day after Coco passed away. She had just barely gotten to the shelter so we had to take her straight to the vet. The vet said she was five weeks old.
Coco's photo albums and memory book:
I was able to record a lot of great memories and characteristics of Coco's personality in these books. Making it and having it are very helpful. Our other pets and Sasha have been good too. Sasha is A LOT like Coco <3
I hope this didn't make anyone sad. It wasn't meant to. Thanks for stopping by :)
I never forget any of my dear, sweet pets either - I wish I had taken more photos of them. The memory book is a lovely idea.

Coco was such a beauty. What a nice urn you chose. We are comforted when we see Pixie's urn, so I hope Coco's urn brings you comfort, too.

Today is six months since we lost Sniffie. It still hurts a lot.

The memory book is so cute and lovely . I'm sure Coco always remembers you wherever she is.

It's hard to believe it has already been a year - warm purrs to you for the happy memories.

A nice way to keep the memory of Coco in the book and especially in your heart. Coco is so cute.

I think it is a nice thing to do to remember your pets that had to leave. What a nice tribute that was to Coco.

So sorry about your loss.
Hang in there.

It's hard to believe that it's been a whole year. I cried too when Coco died. That's such a nice tribute for a beautiful kitty that was so loved. Here is a link from Eric's blog, you kind of have to read the whole thing from the beginning to understand what's going on http://www.channelingerik.com/animals-plants-and-rocks-oh-my/
Take care
