In Loving Memory of
Molly
Molly was born on August 6, 1996. I helped deliver her, and her brothers and sisters. She has been my beloved dog and baby since the day she was born.
Molly and I were the best of friends. She snuggled up to me at night in bed, she would lay at my feet while I was on the computer. She curled up in my lap when I watched T.V. or read a book. She followed me wherever I went. I loved her so much I even shared my coffee with her.
On January 17, 1999, at 9:30 a.m., she was hit by a car. Her neck was broken and she died instantly. I'm thankful she didn't suffer at all, but my family and I are still devastated. I made this page in the hopes that she will be remembered by people other than me, and that everyone can learn the terrible lesson that we learned before they need to suffer the tragedy themselves.
Molly and her sister Sara were let out to do their business that morning. We lived in a mountainous, forested area, so we just let the dogs out freely to do their business in the woods. They were street smart dogs so we never thought in a million years that a tragedy like this would happen.
My dad was driving me to the place I was supposed to babysit at. He stopped at the bottom of our driveway to check for oncoming cars. I looked out the passenger side window and there she was lying lifeless on her back...I screamed all the way back up the hill to tell my mom...we all cried for months afterwards...we still do, and we will continue to grieve for the rest of our lives because she meant that much to us. She's a member of our family. She always will be.
What I'd like to accomplish is to save the life of at least one dog with this page. You don't want to have to suffer the way we have. Walk your dog on a leash, let them loose in the backyard or an enclosed area or at least go outside with them. Do it for you, do it for them, do it for Molly...
When I Think of You
Journey
Magic...moments
They're the things I
Will remember
Where's the time we spent
Together...laughing
Then you walk into my
Dream...dear
And I see your face
Young and so free, smiling
At me
So long since I've...had
You near
Now you've come back again
Where the love never ends
And you're right here
When I think of you
When I...need you
I just close my eyes and
You're...here
Right beside me when I'm lost
In...shadows
Of the memories of you...
Oh my dear
And I see your face
Young and so free, smiling
At me
In your eyes I walk without fear
We're together again
Where the love never ends
‘Cause you're right here
When I think of you
Hold on...just for awhile
Hold on...hold on
I try to forget the night that
You left
It's all so unreal with you gone
I can dream once again...
Where the love never ends
‘Cause you're right here
When I think of you...
When I think of you...
When I think of you
...go back from whence you came...
