Hammy
In Memory of Hammy Vescio
Hammy was a bossy little soul and the definition of “underfoot.” She never wanted anything but to be where her family was, and we would have have given anything to keep her here with us just a little bit longer.

Brown Dog
In Memory of Brown Dog
Brown Dog was a spirit companion. Rider of cars, walker of parks, hiker of trails, and lover of friends. His quiet presence was one of joy for all who got to pet his lovely coat or welcome him when he showed up.
He will be missed by his best friend and all who love them, but remembered for his love, his loyalty and his ability to be a quiet and loyal companion with soulful eyes and powerful presence.

Teddy
Dear Teddy, the striped serenader. His favorite pastime was snuggles and kisses, especially with his mommy, but that doesn't mean he wouldn't peer into the eyes of visitors and croon a song or two in hopes of a kiss. His sweet spirit will be missed by his humanfolk and many fur siblings.

Bella Brown
Our sweet Bella passed away yesterday. Even given her age of 11, we thought (and hoped) we had a few more years left...
The boys and I were out playing in the snow (for maybe 5 minutes) and I turned around and Bella had collapsed. She couldn’t get up, so I called Dan and we got her in the car and we rushed her to Ellisville vet. They took great care of her, but she was seizing and they had to give her meds to make her stop because she wasn’t responsive with them. They suspect that she had a brain tumor. They allowed us back into the room with her while she was heavily medicated and no longer seizing or in any pain. Fortunately, we didn’t have to make the choice to put her down since she decided to go on her own while we were in the room with her. We’re obviously heartbroken and in shock. All of us were there, so we all got to be with her and say goodbye.
I also want to say that she had a great day with us. She loved playing in the snow with the boys, she even went out a few times earlier and just sat in the snow. I had to bribe her to come in with treats. I’m happy that she acted like herself, until the very end. We didn’t have to watch her suffer. Yesterday morning, she came into our room (which she doesn’t always do because the stairs can be a little difficult with her arthritis) and I sat down with her and petted her for a while and held her paw. (If you ever dropped her paw, she could keep giving it to you...she liked to hold hands.) The day before, we played a family board game and she was there, right in the middle (trying to sit on the game board)...
I’m forever grateful that we brought Bella into our lives 11 years ago. We got her before we had the boys. She was our first baby. We knew we wanted a golden and she was perfect (even if she snatched fully made peanut butter and jelly sandwiches and full loaves of bread from the counter). She brought us so much joy and she was always good with the boys, even when they were babies. We have so many good memories with her.
I’ve never lost my own pet before and wow, does it hurt. We are reminded of her everywhere in the house. I was cooking dinner yesterday and she wasn’t there waiting to catch what I dropped. So heartbreaking. It’s going to take a while to get used to this….
RIP sweet girl (2009- February 16, 2021)

James "Nicholas" Ritchie
May 18, 2020
A protector with an open heart, spiritual mind and supportive soul, James "Nicholas" Ritchie was a light to so many, and asked absolutely nothing in return. One of the most beautiful souls I know, he was family from the minute I met him.
"Animals are better than people" Nick was fond of saying - even after my dog promptly took a dump on his long white faux fur rug the first time we ever visited his house. So, it's no surprise that he spoke so often of Brown Dog Foundation and his love for the woman behind it - because that's who he is. Someone who whole heartedly supports and uplifts those he cares about and believes in. And now, so many of us will miss his love, guidance and peaceful embrace - and yes, even how he likes to occasionally give you a hard time.
Nick was better than most animals and people I know. Little did I know that I would be writing a memorial for him just one year after writing one for his best friend Gracie.
The only solace I and others who love him have is to know that he will continue to share his amazing light with us from an even higher place.
With Love, Jessica Mathis

Gracie
Nick & Gracie
Beside every great human is a great friend, and Gracie Ritchie was a friend to all.
Beautifully cared for by Nicholas Ritchie, she was a wonderful and gentle companion.
Together, their light has touched the lives of all whom they encountered, and she will be missed.
