Pet Memorials

Though you have left our side, your memory will always live on in our hearts. We are grateful for the love, joy, and companionship you brought into our lives. You were more than just a pet; you were a loyal friend, a source of comfort, and a beloved member of our family.

May you find peace and happiness in the great beyond, free from pain and suffering. Until we meet again, your spirit will always be with us, reminding us of the beautiful moments we shared together.

Rest in peace, dear friend.

Amen.


The volunteers of Mon Valley Paws would like to express their condolences to our volunteers, sponsors, donors and supporters who have lost a beloved pet. They touched our hearts in so many ways and will never be forgotten.

Mon Valley Paws itself was founded in order to honor the memory of Capone Marino who was taken from us way too soon. So now we work to improve the lives of pets and animals in the community to honor Capone and all our other beloved family members who are no longer with us.
