Obituary For Ivy Lindsey

“To everything there is a season, A time for every purpose under heaven. A time to be born, and a time to die.” Ecclesiastes 3:1-2a

My heart is broken and it is with deep sadness that I announce the passing of my beloved Ivy “babygirl” Lindsey.😢💔

“The LORD is close to the brokenhearted and saves those who are crushed in spirit.” Psalm 34:18

It will take time to heal, and for the uneasiness of the silence to go away. I remember the day that Ivy flew from NOLA and arrived in my home at 6 weeks old. She’s been my roommate, and constant companion for 14 years. It’s just been the two of us!

Though Ivy was the runt of the litter, she had a big heart, big bark, and big personality. She had a sweet spirit, and a loving disposition. She no longer greets me, as I walk through the house, approach the steps, and finally enter our bedroom. I’m flooded with many precious memories. Life seems too quiet without her. Ivy was far more than a pet, she was my fur baby and family!

Ivy was great company: traveling buddies in the car, taking long walks in the park, and in the yard while I planted flowers. People were amazed by her stroller, car seat, cot, tent, princess bed, toy box (full of toys), clothes, and hair bows. Ivy loved chicken and rice (which I prepared often). Yes, she was spoiled!

Ivy was tiny in size for a ShihTzu, but a fearless giant when anyone approached. She protected me with a fierce passion. People quickly discovered that she was all bark! They were immediately melted by her loving spirit, gentleness, and friendliness.

My heart will forever hold dear her pawprints left behind. I will meet you across the Rainbow Bridge!🌈

Until then, love, hugs, and kisses.🤗💋💝💞💐

    The loss of a puppy baby and companion creates a different kind of pain and sadness. Our dogs are who we begin to rely on instinctively for their physical presence and emotional support. I am sorry for the hole this loss has created. I pray Ivy peace in her body from all that ailed her, a renewed spirit, and reconnection with her sister CoCo Chanel on the other side of that Rainbow Bridge. I pray peace fills your heart and ease calms your mind Ma. Your life was lived to the fullest of your ability, rest well now Ivy, Job well done.

    Ivy is in Heaven, she will be missed by her mom. I know that you loved her dearly. I understand your pain and heart break, having lost my dear Smokey. I wish I would have known this when Smokey died, but I have lots of pictures. I am praying that each day gets easier and that God will ease your pain. I love you and I've loved all the pictures you've shared with me in the past of "little Ivy." You have my condolences, because even though I never met Ivy in person, with the pictures that you shared with me, I felt like I knew her.🐩❤️ I would always tell you to give her a pat on the head for me, and you always shared what she was doing. All of your precious memories will sustain you moving forward. Love 💘ya

God loves you and so do I🙏🏾❤️🥰 Deborah Anderson

    Thoughts of Hope and Comfort by Helen Steiner Rice <3 Aunt Joanie After the clouds, the sunshine, after the winter, the spring, After the shower, the rainbow, for a life is a changeable thing. After the night, the morning, bidding all darkness cease, After life's cares and sorrows, the comfort and sweetness of peace.
