“Tiger”, 11 years old, left this world on September 15, 2006, after losing a battle with liver disease from an unknown cause. She is survived by her two favorite human companions, Bruce and Lela Fuester, and their family.  Tiger will be greatly missed for her companionship, though she didn't always show it to everyone. You might even say that she was born with an attitude and she knew how to use it, and she would never hesitate to let anybody know that I was hers. Tiger would always be at the door waiting for me when I got home from work, but now she will be waiting for me at the Rainbow Bridge, ever watchful and ever patient. I love you and will always miss you Tiger. 

"I'll see you later, Tiger. You behave yourself..."

Our thanks to Bruce & Lela Fuester for Tiger's Memorial

Dinah was always there for me when I needed her. I grew up with her by my side. Dinah helped my through some hard times in my life. Dinah and I were inseparable when I was growing up. When I would cry she would come running to comfort me. Sometimes I think she even know what I was feeling and thinking. I have never had a cat like her, and I don't think any other cat will compare to her.  Dinah got sick and that is when I knew it was time to say goodbye. She will always be in my heart. I will never forget her. I love you Dinah.

For those of you that came into Brookeside / Brookedale and noticed my baby laying behind the reception desk, he'll be there no more.  I lost Spike on August 20, 2006 at the grand old age of 14 years.  He was my going to work buddy as well as my constant companion.  I hardly ever went anywhere without him.  He never met another animal he didn't get along with either cat or dog.  He was my "Butt sniffer" (when it came to the house cats), my Wiggle Butt Mutt, and last but not least Mama's Four-Legger.  I shall mourn for him.  My husband and I have a void in the household at home.  I know God willing I shall see him again.  Rest in Peace Four-Legger.

Chewbacca, (a.k.a. Chewy or Chew-Chew), was born in a parking lot in Denver in 1993.  My Secretary, Sylvia, talked me into taking home the only male puppy.   We had many happy days hiking the mountain trails. Chewy loved playing in that fresh Colorado powder snow!   We came back to Ann Arbor in 1996 and discovered Brookeside through a friend's recommendation. 

Unfortunately, he developed a malignant oral tumor last summer.  Treatment provided palliative benefits, but I lost him January 20, 2006.  He is now "running with the wolves" at the Rainbow Bridge.   He was a great dog, and I am thankful not only for his unconditional love, but the many  wonderful people I met because of him.  I miss him so much!

Our thanks to Jerry Lohmeyer for Chewbacca's memorial

Remy was our friend and companion and we will miss her more than we can say. 

We are so pleased to have had such good care for her at Brookeside - smiles all around.

Thank you for her health through her 12 years and especially for your kindness at her end.

Our thanks to Dr. Richard & Jane Dorr for Remy's memorial

This is "Murphie", the constant companion and travel buddy of Ms. Joan Harrison.  Murphie was the favorite pet in her neighborhood and on each of her walks, everyone that passed knew Murphie.  Being small in stature but big in heart, Murphie loved everyone and only shook when visiting the vet! 

Murphie crossed over the Rainbow Bridge due to medical ailments.  There will never be another dog like her.  She will be missed by those around her, and especially by her loving Mom, Joan, who will miss her most of all.

We adopted Levi from a Bouvier rescue in August 1995.  He had been running on his own, leaving the poor boy emaciated and not very trusting. As he filled out, he realized that we were going to be his home forever, and he gave us so much love over the last ten years.  Levi had some health struggles in the last few years.  We were happy to drive him up to Michigan State or multiple area clinics, to help him feel better.  Levi did enjoy life with puppyish enthusiasm after all his various treatments, until last month, when he let us know that he was ready to cross the "Rainbow Bridge".

Levi will be missed by his parents,

Margaret & Gene Szedenits, Jr.
