*Urn and Keepsake Necklaces*

*Keepsake box and signed photo frame*

*Small Gift to Monetary and Keepsake Signed Photo Donors*

Perry's family wait after 14 days and finally to post pictures of his urn, keepsake necklace, and what were being done during that last 14 days. To respect and honor his departure to heaven, pictures can't be taken until after 15 days.

*
It is a blessing that the engraved urn and keepsake jewelry arrived on the 7th day. We stored his ashes into his urn immediately. Remembrance candles lighted on the 7th day, 14th day, and the next day after the 7th and 14th day to honor his passing, but remain presence in his family heart.

*
Perry and his family were truly blessed from above that he received monetary donation and signed keepsake photo frame. Since Perry had human funeral arrangement and service, his family followed the tradition returned small gifts to those who had contributed to the monetary donation and keepsake signed photo frame.

*
The small gift was given on the 7th day or 14th day to thanks for the kindness and thoughtful of the donors. Each item of in the small gift has meaning. The wash cloth represent our thanks to you for wiping the family tears during the difficult time. The candies symbolize your sweetness and the family thanks for your kindness. The silver coin is for the recipients to spend so that they will receive blessing from above for all the goodness that you did while the individual still alive. The items given in an odd number which symbolizes the individual (Perry) departed this world alone.

For all his Puppia harness friends that sent cards and emails, the kitties and pooches received a small gift also. They are part of the Perry's friends that his family care deeply also.

*

In the meantime, Perry's family put all his personal items that collected over the years into a black keepsake box. The items in the box include his hair & whisker, bite off nails, puppy tooth, death certificate, favorite smile face ball, an extra cremation top knot barrette. and some pictures.

Perry was not just a pet, but he became part of our faimly. We are never ready to give up that part of our life that has always been precious to us. But just the mathematics of aging should have been enough to warn and prepare us that inevitable moment. At times we didn't want to listen and accept his cancer progression.

*

The joy of having Perry for the past 14th years were much greater than the sadness of his departure. The laughter and happiness outweighted the sadness & sorrow.

*

The next post will be on the 4/28/08 which is exactly the 30th day after his passed on. The title will be Celebration of Perry's life.

*

Warmest Regards.

Perry's family.
