"Sometimes the smallest things take up the most room in your heart." We love and miss you Greta!

Nickname: Greta Simone, Beba, Greeeda, My Sweet Girl, Greta

Our healthy 4 year old baby, Greta, was unexpectedly taken away when we took her to the vet for a routine teeth cleaning. Her heart stopped during anesthesia induction, and our hearts stopped with hers; a part of us died with her and left a hole in our hearts. We miss her more than words can say. Her feline friends, Calipso and Ellie, have missed her company tremendously too. It is not the same cuddling and sleeping on the bed with one less.

Greta was the light of our lives; went everywhere with us, brought us so much joy and laughter. She loved to sing with us, say "I love you" in response to us, swim in Grandma and Grandpa's pool, go on road trips to visit family, bask in the sun or run around in the snow in her big backyard, give lots of lickey kisses to all, play with her kickball and tennisball, and make a perfect nest in her blankets before bedtime. Greta was my pal, she helped her mommy through a very rough time, always aware when I needed a little extra love and encouragement. She loved unconditionally and never met a person she didn't love. She was great with her human family and feline friends, who all miss her so dearly. Greta was content to take a snooze anywhere, but ready to run around and play if the opportunity was there! She was the most wonderful dog a family could ask for! We will miss her dearly and never forget our loving baby Greta!

Dear Greta,
You taught us so much about love and patience in your 4 short years with us, we will be forever changed because you were in our lives..... Calipso has been laying in your dog bed each day since you have been gone, she smells you and misses you. Ellie has been giving us extra attention, she knows we are hurting since your loss. The house is quiet and lonely without you baby Greta. Every song I hear reminds me of you; we will never stop loving you. Grandpa said "the good die young" and it is true, you were beyond good...you were the best! I hope you have found many other dogs at the Rainbow Bridge in heaven to run and play with; please wait for us there. We heard your Boston mommy is there too, we hope you have found each other! Let God watch over you, and please enjoy the sun, fields to run in, toys to play with, and yummy treats gallore! Until we meet again our baby, we love you Greta! XOXOXOXOXOX

Greta-
This song makes me think of you and wish so much I could take that day away. I love you, my baby girl, and miss you tremendously. Our lives have changed so much in the last two years, and it breaks my heart that you have not been able to be here to enjoy it with us. I know you are looking down on us, as our little angel in heaven....I feel you at times. Love you forever my sweet girl!

I can tell
I can tell how much you hate this
And deep down inside
You know it's killin' me
I can call
Wish you well
And try to change this
But nothing I can say
Would change anything
Where were my senses
I left them all behind
Why did I turn away
Away

I wish I could save you
I wish I could say to you
I'm not going nowhere
I wish I could say to you
It's gonna be alright
It's gonna be alright

Didn't mean
Didn't mean to leave you stranded
Went away 'cause I didn't want to face the truth
Reachin' out
Reach for me empty handed
You don't know if I care you're trying to find the proof
There were times I'd wonder
Could I have eased your pain
Why did I turn away
Away

I wish I could save you
I wish I could say to you
I'm not going nowhere
I wish I could say to you
It's gonna be alright
It's gonna be alright

It's gonna be alright
Save you
I wish I could save you

We can pretend nothing's changed
Pretend it's all the same
And there will be no pain tonight

It's gonna be alright
It's gonna be alright
It's gonna be alright

Save you
I wish I could save you
I'm not going no where
I wish I could say to you
It's gonna be alright
It's gonna be alright
It's gonna be alright
Save you
I wish I could save you

It's gonna be alright

Save you by Kelly Clarkson

Miss you baby girl! Forever in our hearts!

Love,
Mommy

My Dear Baby Greta-
It's been three years and I still think of you every day. Some days I still can't believe you were taken from us....in such an awful way. I miss you tremendously. Before Grandma June died, she said she would find you in heaven when she got there, and let you run up onto her lap....I hope you are sitting on her lap and licking her face right now.....I realize you might be competing with many other dogs she loved though...it's a long list! I know Rylee is now with you too. Hope you are running in God's back yard of heaven together, chasing tennis balls! Cali still sleeps on your pillow bed, I know the girls miss you as much as I do. We decorated the Christmas tree and placed many ornaments with your memories attached....a picture of you surfing in the pool, many Boston Terrier figurines, and a "Forever in our hearts" ornament with your name. Know you are with us always, my dear Greta, we will never, ever, ever forget you my baby girl. Please continue to watch over us as our little angel in heaven. Miss you and love you my sweet girl. Until we meet again.....Love, Mommy
