Jake's Tribute
It's here: http://www.oes.org/html/jake.html It's a big page.... Jake's In Memoriam appeared in this month's Tale's End newsletter. It read: Everything reminds us of our dog, Jake. “Happy Birthday to You” reminds us of our dog; Ice cubes remind us of our dog; A loaf of bread (missing) reminds us of our dog; Floppy ears remind us of our dog. Beautiful things remind us of our dog. May Jake (NEOESR ’92) romp forever… Joan and Ron |

| Ron,
Thank you for sharing your memories of Jake. You can tell that he was well loved and lived a full, happy life! He was a very lucky dog. Ann |
| Dear Ron & Joan,
I was very touched reading your story of Jake. I have had OES's since I was a kid- so I know what a special place they take in your heart. The dog I grew up with- Daisy- died at age 10 of a brain aneurysm. Looking at pictures of her or hearing stories of other dogs passing away- just seem to make me cry all over again. And it has been about 10 years since we lost her. She was the center of my family & no dog will ever take her place. Then came Sassy Lady Sadie (and boy- this girl lives up to her name) Sadie is no replacement for Daisy- but she certianaly keeps us busy. She is close to 8 years old and still tears around like a puppy. I've moved out of my parents house & if I don't visit the girl daily...I start missing her! Anyway, I just wanted to tell you something somebody told me after we had lost Daisy. Nobody could have given Jake the life that you did and nobody knew that better than Jake. Everytime his little bob-tail wiggled when he saw you- he was telling you he loved you! Best wishes- Michelle |
| Every day I seem to drift back to this site and today I finally experienced your Jake. You have touched me once again with all the heart that goes into this wonderful place. I have been trying to put together a little tribute to my Rosie who I had mentioned to you the other nite had crossed over the bridge on the 12th. It's a work in process and I was doing really good not crying surprisingly until just now when i read that even ice cubes reminded you of Jake. Every morning when I get my water ready for work I used to give Rosie the extras and this brings a few tears on. I am getting better though. I'll get my act together soon. I miswrote the other nite saying I was going to write Marianne (4 AM , I was lucky I was seeing straight). It was Verve Up that I dropped a line to regarding the loss of her sheepie on the 7th. Any chance if you still have that email, could you send a copy back to me. I am still getting use to how you post etc. and thought I had saved that but didn't. Thanks for your Memories. |
| sigh.
i know jake and my shaggy are playing in doggie heaven. |
| What a fantastic web page. And memorial.
I wish I could say what I feel, but I just read Marianne's post and now the memorial. I am a bit overwhelmed. I hope they are all having fun with each other. No leashes or collars, just running with the wind. I am going to go let Abbi take me for a walk. |
| I read jakes tribute with tears in my eyes (Happy tears )what a great life for him.I think our next dog is going to be a rescue. Thanks for sharing your wonderful friend with us. |
