Lorenz (Ren) Agee

(April 20, 1927 - March 12, 2010)

Besides being a husband, father and grandfather.
Lorenz (Ren) was a pioneer in the field of pet cremations.
He began in 1969, A time when very few took him seriously.
He, along with his wife Rose and son Randy, began to teach the pet families of our city,
state and maybe even the country how to properly memorialize their special family member.
Since that time, it seems as though most services around the United States have followed his model.
Ren was a retired Chief Engineer who officially retired from the cremation industry due to illness.
Ren left us on Friday, March 12, 2010, for his next journey, I am sure we will be caring for your pets
in heaven until you can join them. -

If It Should Be...

If it should be I grow frail and weak,

And pain should wake me from my sleep,

Then you must do what must be done,

For this last battle can't be won.

You will be sad, I'll understand

Don't let your grief then stay your hand,

For this day more than all the rest,

Your love and friendship stand the test.

We've had so many happy years,

What is to come will hold no fears,

You'll not want me to suffer so,

When the time comes please let me go.

I know in time, you too will see,

It is a kindness you do for me,

Although my tail its last has waved,

From pain and suffering, I've been saved.

Do not grieve that it should be you,

Who has to decide this thing to do,

We've been so close, we two, these years,

Don't let your heart hold any tears.

To all my friends and fellow pet owners:  

I lost my faithful, loyal, loving little Schatz on Saturday, June 23rd, 2007.  I took her to the vet thinking she would get some pills for the wheezing sounds she was making when she woke up. 
I thought I was taking her to get some pills for congestion.  They found a very large tumor filling her chest cavity.  Her blood work indicated she was anemic, and with a low red blood count suggested
the tumor was seeping and her 50/50 chance of recovery went from 50/50 to may not making it thru the surgery.  A long, hard recovery would have faced her due to the size of the tumor and the transfusion
she would need IF she made it.  The vet was doubtful given the blood workup.  The choice was obvious, but difficult.  I chose to hold her to the end rather than take the chance of leaving her there,  scared,
and putting her through a surgery she most likely would not have made it through.  I didn't want her last moments not to be with me and feeling safe and loved.  
She was a great dog, and always made me laugh.  If I was trying to program the VCR, her head was between me and the instructions.  She probably figured it out before me.
She was fast and a great little hunter.  I saw her catch a sparrow in flight.  She brought me a  dead squirrel (which I think Earhart may have helped her with). 
She also caught a very large rat (about the time Canal Street was dug up for the new streetcar line.) 
She adored me and was always happy just to be where I was. She moved with me to Kenner, Lakeview, Atlanta, back to Lakeview, evacuated to Memphis, Houston and back to the northshore.
She went on vacations to Florida with me and to Yappy Hours at Jefferson Seed, Barkus and some of the earlier Schnauzer Walks. 
She wore costumes for parades, Halloween and the Jefferson Feed parties. 
She was a great sport.
She defended me when the 12 -14 year old boys from next door would jump the fence to get their basketball and kick at her. 
We were quite the pair, she nipping at their heels while I ran after them with my broom when they started kicking at her!   
She always made me laugh.  She would blow kisses at me early in the morning and sit at my feet all day, or follow me from room to room when I worked at home. 
She loved Schnitzel and was starting to even like Meaux, playing with him and chasing him to remind him who was still the boss.  
She was with me almost 15 years.  I shared a little  more than 25% of my life with her.  She was my Schatz girl with ears as soft as velvet.
She was never sick and for that I am grateful.  I am grateful I had the opportunity to hold her there at the end instead of coming home and finding her already gone and wondering if I could have done anything for her.     
I am attaching two photos of her when she would go under the Plumbago Bush and come out with flowers sticking to her. 
I made them into a little crown and called her my little Bavarian Princess!  
I will miss her with all my heart.

Elvira, everything I could have asked for and more - your were a wonderful gift to my life.

Laddie
Your eyes clothes my heart in joy
Your smile torches my soul to life.
You more than raged against the dying of the light
You faced it and went bravely into that dark unknown
With your head held high and legs firmly planted to the ground
As you look your last breath.
I wish you could tell me
What happened next,
Are you okay?
Until then Best Friend, Laddie, my boy Rest.
Close those sweet cacao eyes
And gently nestle around the warmth,
Play, jump, bark, run, and live again
For truly you are it doggie heaven!
And wait for my loving embrace
When we meet again, Laddie my boy.

Your beautiful face. Your gentle nature. Evening walks together --

cute little white paws stepping delicately in the grass.

Goodnight kisses and early morning hugs.

True love shining bright in your eyes.
I miss you desperately, Cesar, and I love you so very much.
You made me happy every single day and I will never, ever forget you.

Love Always, Pam

 

Today, February 15 2008, my best friend took his last truck ride.
He love to ride in the truck. Bear has been my faithful companion for over 15 years.
His love has always been there for me and it has been unconditional.
I could not have asked for more than he gave me.
Bear, you have been a special companion and I love you so very much.
I will always love you. You have been my heart and remain there forever
We will always be together. While mourning your passing, we cerebrate your life. 
Bear is survived by myself, his mama Dulce who he loved so much,
his canine brothers; Charley, BeBe, Champ and, Spotty, and love birds Sylvester and Splaylay.

"You will always be our little angel" 

 

Today, May 7 2008, my best friend Charley took his last truck ride.
Like Bear who passed on in February, Charley loved to ride in the truck.
Charley was a wonderful companion for 11 and ½ years.
Charley was a healthy, happy little dog but when Bear passed, it was almost
as if he gave up wanting to live. Congestive heart failure and a stroke did the rest.
Charley, you are a special little dog and you are very much missed.
I will always love you. Charley has crossed the Rainbow Bridge to be with Bear
and they wait patiently together to be joined by all their loved ones and friends.
Someday we will all be together again.
Charley is survived by myself, his mama Dulce,
his canine brothers; BeBe, Champ and, Spotty, and love birds Sylvester and Splaylay.

We love you Damion. 

(Our little cajun dog)

Such a big part of our life is gone. 
We will miss you always. 
Love you Mommy and Daddy!

Beautiful Pixie our little darling, we will miss and always love you.

 

 

The following was forwarded to us by Ms Morgan, a very kind lady who
I had the pleasure of sharing some time and tales with us when we had the honor
of caring for her beautiful German Shepherd, "Jo". We hope that you will like it.

Menu Bar

 
I, SILVERDENE EMBLEM O'NEILL (familiarly known to my family, friends, and acquaintances as Blemie), because the burden of my years and infirmities is heavy upon me, and I realize the end of my life is near, do hereby bury my last will and testament in the mind of my Master. He will not know it is there until after I am dead. Then, remembering me in his loneliness, he will suddenly know of this testament, and I ask him then to inscribe it as a memorial to me.

I have little in the way of material things to leave. Dogs are wiser than men. They do not set great store upon things. They do not waste their days hoarding property. They do not ruin their sleep worrying about how to keep the objects they have, and to obtain the objects they have not. There is nothing of value I have to bequeath except my love and my faith. These I leave to all those who have loved me, to my Master and Mistress, who I know will mourn me most, to Freeman who has been so good to me, to Cyn and Roy and Willie and Naomi and -- But if I should list all those who have loved me, it would force my Master to write a book. Perhaps it is vain of me to boast when I am so near death, which returns all beasts and vanities to dust, but I have always been an extremely lovable dog.

I ask my Master and Mistress to remember me always, but not to grieve for me too long. In my life I have tried to be a comfort to them in time of sorrow, and a reason for added joy in their happiness. It is painful for me to think that even in death I should cause them pain. Let them remember that while no dog has ever had a happier life (and this I owe to their love and care for me), now that I have grown blind and deaf and lame, and even my sense of smell fails me so that a rabbit could be right under my nose and I might not know, my pride has sunk to a sick, bewildered humiliation. I feel life is taunting me with having over-lingered my welcome. It is time I said good-bye, before I become too sick a burden on myself and on those who love me. It will be sorrow to leave them, but not a sorrow to die. Dogs do not fear death as men do. We accept it as part of life, not as something alien and terrible which destroys life. What may come after death, who knows? I would like to believe with those of my fellow Dalmatians who are devout Mohammedans, that there is a Paradise where one is always young and full-bladdered; where all the day one dillies and dallies with an amorous multitude of houris, beautifully spotted; where jack rabbits that run fast but not too fast (like the houris) are as the sands of the desert; where each blissful hour is mealtime; where in long evenings there are a million fireplaces with logs forever burning, and one curls oneself up and blinks into the flames and nods and dreams, remembering the old brave days on earth, and the love of one's Master and Mistress.

I am afraid this is too much for even such a dog as I am to expect. But peace, at least, is certain. Peace and long rest for weary old heart and head and limbs, and eternal sleep in the earth I have loved so well. Perhaps, after all, this is best.

One last request I earnestly make. I have heard my Mistress say, "When Blemie dies we must never have another dog. I love him so much I could never love another one." Now I would ask her, for love of me, to have another. It would be a poor tribute to my memory never to have a dog again. What I would like to feel is that, having once had me in the family, now she cannot live without a dog! I have never had a narrow jealous spirit. I have always held that most dogs are good (and one cat, the black one I have permitted to share the living room rug during the evenings, whose affection I have tolerated in a kindly spirit, and in rare sentimental moods, even reciprocated a trifle). Some dogs, of course, are better than others. Dalmatians, naturally, as everyone knows, are best. So I suggest a Dalmatian as my successor. He can hardly be as well bred or as well mannered or as distinguished and handsome as I was in my prime. My Master and Mistress must not ask the impossible. But he will do his best, I am sure, and even his inevitable defects will help by comparison to keep my memory green. To him I bequeath my collar and leash and my overcoat and raincoat, made to order in 1929 at Hermes in Paris. He can never wear them with the distinction I did, walking around the Place Vendôme, or later along Park Avenue, all eyes fixed on me in admiration; but again I am sure he will do his utmost not to appear a mere gauche provincial dog. Here on the ranch, he may prove himself quite worthy of comparison, in some respects. He will, I presume, come closer to jack rabbits than I have been able to in recent years. And for all his faults, I hereby wish him the happiness I know will be his in my old home.

One last word of farewell, Dear Master and Mistress. Whenever you visit my grave, say to yourselves with regret but also with happiness in your hearts at the remembrance of my long happy life with you: "Here lies one who loved us and whom we loved." No matter how deep my sleep I shall hear you, and not all the power of death can keep my spirit from wagging a grateful tail.

We had Fancy since Dec. 1996 when she was 4 weeks old. She was a

Small bundle of mischief and as she grew she became the best companion

anyone could have asked for. Even to her last day on earth she was a protector

of her family and home. She had grown frail in her last days and was in a lot

of pain, but she tried not to let us know how bad she really hurt.

Fancy will be missed so much and we loved her so much.

Thank you for caring for her at the end of her life.

Chewy,

You are the most special dog that any of us have ever had.  You made me smile every time I looked at your face. 
You always knew when I needed you and how to make everything go away. 
We are all going to miss you biting at our ankles and growling at us when we moved because you were sleeping. 
You had something very special about you, and everyone that knew and met you absolutely loved you.
Granny is going to miss cleaning up after you with the trash can and Paw-Paw is going to miss you begging for food
or yummies.   There will never be another like you.  You are truly special. 
I will always remember our night when we slept 17 hours together.  I don’t think I will ever have another
dog that can sleep like momma can!  We were a perfect fit together.  I am going to miss so many things about you,
even the things that used to make me so mad. I am so glad the cancer is gone now and you can breathe again. 
One day we will be reunited and I will be able to cuddle with you. 
May you rest in peace and remember how loved you are.  You are my bugie!

"Remy"  April 14, 2005--April 15, 2009  

Remy was a gift sent to our family in a time of need.  He brought much love and joy to our family. 
His life was too short, but we will always treasure the wonderful memories we have of him. 
Remy was a loyal companion not only to our family, but also to his sister Maggie. 
She, as well as us, will miss his love and friendship tremendously.  
Remy, we know you are in heaven with our precious baby girl, Olivia. 
We will always love and remember your sweet face and cute personality!  
Your family,

No words, no pictures could ever tell your story or even begin to do it justice.
You were so loving, funny, and sweet.
Cushing’s took your body from us, and left a huge hole in our home.
You stole our hearts when you became our baby 12 ½ years ago, and you will remain in our hearts forever.
The pain of losing you is worse than we could have imagined,
but we bear it proudly for the privilege of loving you and being your family.

Until we meet again at Rainbow Bridge, rest well and be at peace my darling girl.

Today, Sunday, 10/4/09 a wonderful member of God’s creatures who wandered into my life,
into my heart and connected to my soul made his transition to eternity. His name is Bandit and
how appropriate, he would steal your heart. A partially paralyzed dog that had no idea of how to give up,
how to stop living, how to stop loving and how to stop encouraging his extended K9 family as well as his human friends.
Bandit taught me thru trials I can persevere and I am stronger than I realize; he taught me how to give thanks and
be happy during the most difficult trials; he taught me how to put my weakness aside to care for humans and K9s
in need. He taught me with disabilities strength is born, courage is sowed, faith will flourish, prayers really
do work and life is truly worth living. You see this wonderful creature had no favorite toy, for him there was
no substitute for the joy of life, the joy of giving, the joy of love felt from a pat on a back,
a hug and a giggle from a child and acknowledgment from a stranger; the roar of trucks, motorcycles and
thunder spoke to him in a language that only he could understand. To spend time with Bandit was to experience
the spirit of someone higher than I, to look into his eyes and see God reflection on his face is an overwhelming
experience. Today heaven gained another wonderful creature whose spirit shall remain with me always and his
paw prints shall forever be imbedded on heart. Thank you Bandit for the lessons of simplicity, of love,
of acceptance, of perseverance and until we meet again, may you enjoy the green pastures of eternity and
the completeness of wholeness. God Speed my wonderful friend, God speed!

 

Peppie was the best friend,compainion anyone could ever want. He was loyal,
and very much dedicated to me,he was there by my side no matter what was going on in my life,
he was there. Peppie you was more then a dog to me,you was my child with paws.
You know I will always Love and miss you,there will never be a day when you wont be on my mind.
You were one tough man.

Love You My Peppie Son.

 

 

Wigster, you have been my best friend and will always be my best running buddy.

You will always be in my heart - I run with my heart - I run with you.

 

The following poem was presented to us by Ms Tupper several years ago.
I think it is pretty and would like to share it with you.

In Loving Memory of Sony

I lost a special friend

Who meant a lot to me

A true companion, always there

He was a dog, you see.

If I poured trouble out to him

It seemed he unerstood.

He'd lick my hand as if to say

"I'd help you if I could."

He was so glad when I'd come home

His tail would wag with glee

I think he waited all day long

For one small pat from me.

He asked for little - gave so much

As at my feet he'd lay.

How much I miss him, no one knows

The ache is there each day.

Within my heart I always knew

That all good things must end

And I'm grateful for the memories,

Sleep well, my little friend.

My girl, Molly May taught an animal lover all about true love. I got Molly May when she was 3 weeks old.
The most beautiful rottie. Molly May grew up to be her mom's perfect rottie.
March 2009 Molly May was diagnosed with bone cancer and the fight began.
She had her front leg removed and showed us all how she could move on like nothing happened.
Then on September 18 a tumor was found on her spine. Steroids gave us 6 more weeks together.
In those six weeks I only left her side to go to work. I carried her and loved her.
As hard as I fought to keep her alive, Molly May fought harder to stay with me.
In the end I had to do what was best for her and let her go.
My girl will always be in my heart and there will never be another perfect rottie,
Molly May will forever carry that title.
To my perfect, brave girl you will always be loved and forever missed

"Chloe",

called a Lemon Beagle, a precious breed name for my precious little dog.
One of four dogs, you were my favorite with your antics of hiding in your snuggle bed and
vocally recognizing any and all visitors and notifying me when meals were late!
You gave me fourteen years of unquieted love and joy! I will always miss you, my little love!
Until I join you on the Rainbow Bridge - take care, Little Love.

Yours,

Mom-Gloria

 

To the best friend that I have ever had. We will miss you forever our baby boy you gave us so many years of
happiness and we hope we did the same for you. 11 years we came home and you were always there for us.

love and will never forget you. The only happiness I get is that I know you and your baby boy are together

Elle', a Vizsla mix, was a trembling, sick and underweight dog with just minutes to live when I adopted her from
Japonica Street SPCA in 1995. She quickly bloomed into a gorgeous, smart and appreciative dog who loved life.
After Hurricane Katrina, she contracted West Nile virus, but fought her way through that rare, untreatable illness.
In July of 2008, at the tender age of 16 years, Elle’ gave me the sign that she was tired and was ready for eternal rest.
My vet helped her to cross Rainbow Bridge while asleep on her bed, in her own house with her favorite music playing. 
My Elle' Girl - I will love you forever!

loved to run like the wind, and then spend the day relaxing on her bed. She was as soft as a bunny
rabbit with big brown eyes and a kind temperament – she never even barked. Please consider adopting
a greyhound...they are wonderful pets. 

Sadly missed by Susan Gros, Midnight and Pepper.

Retired K9

Naska

March 23, 1998 - January 29, 2010  

He served under Sgt. Brian L. Bertrand for 8 years with the St. John the Baptist Sheriff's Office.
During his working years, Naska made several apprehensions including armed robbery suspects and
burglary suspects. He helped make several narcotic recoveries that lead to jail time for the offenders.
He attended serveral schools in St. John Parish and performed countless public demonstrations.
Naska earned serveral swards, trophies, and plaques in many K9 competitions based on his skills and performances. 
He touched many lives and made many friends that he left great memories with.
He will be greatly missed by Sgt. Bertrand but never forgotten.
Not only was Naska Brian's partner fighting crime but he was also his best friend.  
We love you and miss you Naska! Love, Brian, Denise, Amanda, Andrea, TJ, & Paxton

(A Special Thanks to Naska from our family for all of his years of service- Randy & Ellen Agee)

Trooper, you were truly a member of our family and will be missed forever.
Your were a wonderful dog and so smart.   Rescuing you from the JSPCA for my son,
who at the time was 10, was a special time.   Your boy is now in college and still adores you.   

We know all Dogs go to Heaven.

We also know how much you loved walks- so walk in the heavenly meadows now.   

Love your Family

Sara
"Our Baby Girl”
April 19, 2001 - April 23, 2010
We all miss you so much.
Your collar read “It’s Tough Being a Princess”. That indeed you were; our little princess.
You were the sweetest rot ever. You won the hearts of everyone you met. It was so hard to say good bye. 
We take comfort knowing you are with Shadow, running like
a gazelle as you used to do.  We remember all the fun we had playing in the snow in
Tennessee while on vacation, and how much you loved swimming in the gulf at Grand Isle.  
You will be in our hearts forever, never forgotten.
Love, Mommy, Paw Paw, Maw Maw, & Family    

 

In Memory of Brucie,

Our beloved Roxie befriended you in the fall of 2004 from the streets of Gentilly. 
You braved the Christmas snow of December, 2004, and finally let us take you into our lives in the winter of 2005.
You survived with us through the floods of Katrina where we spent the night on chairs atop our dining room
table in 4 feet of water.  You didn’t even like water or swimming like our other 3 dogs. 
We will always remember the joy you brought us in the short time we had together. 
You were truly an “old” soul and we will always love you!!
Cheryl, Johnny, Desi, Blazey, Boo-Boo (at peace) and Roxie,
MawMaw Bev, PawPaw Charlie and Aunt Kim

Lucky 4/1/96-5/31/11

Lucky came to us shortly after our son died and helped us with our grief. Over the last 15 years he lived up to his name, going through 6 years of kidney failure and defying the odds. He was an inspiration to many. He will be greatly missed by everyone in our family.

Missing our Lucky Lou,
Shanna, Alan, Tawny, Mindy, Ashley, Tiger, Midnight, Baby, Rusty and Princess

The Mention of His Name

"The mention of my child's name may bring tears to my eyes,
But it never fails to bring music to my ears.
If you are really my friend, let me hear the beautiful music of his name.
It soothes my broken heart and sings to my soul.."

Loved and Missed Always.

 

SWEETIE

Tuesday morning, May 24, Sweetie unexpectedly completed her transition from life.  Although she had severe arthritis and orthopedic problems, she appeared to be healthy on Monday.  She was happy and had a good appetite.

Late Monday night Sweetie had a seizure, and another, and another, on into the night and the following morning.  I took her to Dr. Dorner at Animal Care Clinic and he eased her through her transition.

Sweetie lived up to her name.  Upon meeting her, people would say, “She’s such a sweetie, and I would say, “Sweetie is her name.”   Sweetie was an “easy” dog, obedient, quiet, and loving.  Best of all, she adored me.

She hated water but loved walks.  The prospect of a car ride sent her into ecstasy.  She reveled in a roll in the grass on a Spring day.  Sweetie could be a picky eater.  Her favorite food was whatever I was eating. 

                             SEPTEMBER 25, 1999 – May 24, 2011

 

Sweetie was a dog of few barks, a measured bark or

two when someone approached the house was enough to warn me, and whoever drew near.

She was a great companion. 

My only regret is that she couldn’t stay longer.

Mama Love 8-1-00 4-8-11

My heart breaks as I struggle to write this memorial to you, the pain being second only to the pain of losing you. It has not eased, but has only worsened as the shock starts to lift. My sorrow is great. You were my dearest friend and constant companion, with me through so many changes and for so long, though not long enough. I think that is why, of all the many dogs I've loved, lost, missed and cried for through the years, losing you has hit me the hardest. You were my last dog and I still can't believe that you're gone. Your personality filled my heart and filled our home. Now there's just emptiness and nothing will ever be the same wihout you. I miss you deeply and I promise to forever carry you close to my heart and to cherish the memories of our time together for the rest of my days. Thank you my most adorable and funny boy, for all the joy and happiness you brought to my life. In my eyes you were perfect. I hope that you knew. I would have given anything to make you well. I'm not able to say goodbye but only that I hope that somehow you are with your sister Miss George, who passed on in December, and all of the dog family that you grew up with, all you passed long ago. I'll love you and miss you forever.

Love, mom.

 

 

 My Angel

From the day we met, you watched over me like a guardian angel.  That's why I named you "Angel"

You were one of the best friends I have ever had.

You listened, and loved, and protected.   What more could I have needed.

I still feel you near me even though you are gone from sight.

I miss you so much.

Please wait with my Mom and Tommie until we meet again.

Love Always,

Ellen

       

                                                                 "Bab i"  We miss you and will love you always.
