| Eric 8th April 2000 - 19th March 2013 |
Eight years since you had to leave us, how can it be that long! We love and miss you just as much today as we did then, and that will never change.
We love you, our darling boy.
Memorial Plaques.
Ivor made plaques for both boys after each had left us, but bugs got under the bark and were destroying them from the inside, so he made new ones and got them in place before Eric's anniversary.

We all miss that sweet big guy and those new plaques are super nice, made with love.
ReplyDeleteLots of purrs to you today. I didn't know Eric passed away on my birthday, a year before I was born. <3
ReplyDeleteAnniversaries like these are always hard...even after many years...
ReplyDeleteI never had the pleasure of meeting Eric, he flew away before I started blogging, but I am glad I can meet him in a different way, with all those precious memories you regularly share with us.
Those new plaques look very nice.
Hugs to you on this hard day. ♥
The new plaques are really nice.
ReplyDeletein our heart we will be always together... we love the sweet memory place you made...
ReplyDeleteBless!xxx
ReplyDeleteEric of the nose so red
ReplyDeleteHow can you be 8 years gone, our friend?
It seems like it was yesterday
That you had left and gone away.
Over The Bridge,
Under the stars,
Guarding the yard,
We remember you.

ReplyDeleteAww, 8 years or 80, I'm sure you'll always miss your dear boy. We felines grow on all y'all's hearts like a vine, dad says. This is such a beautiful post about your dear Angel Eric, and those plaques are a perfect memorial.
ReplyDeleteOh Eric....you handsome ginger boy.....always a fabulous photo by you. I know you are SO missed by Mom and Dad, and I know you miss them equally so. One day all of us will be together again..............
ReplyDeleteLove, Pam (and Teddy)
Eight years already? To the heart the losses seem like yesterday. ♥

Eric, you were, and are, loved by many.
ReplyDeleteEric we think of you an awful lot as you and your brother were such big presences on the webs and you still are. Great photos and we thank Mom for sharing them. We love your resting spot with brother Flynn. Watch over us dear friend!
ReplyDeleteTimmy, Dad and Family
Eric had such a sweet face! Love his photos!
ReplyDeleteEight years...for Eric and 4 for Flynn. Very hard to believe. Eric and Flynn and of course you Jackie were among our first feline blogging friends.
ReplyDeleteMy mind's eye sees Our beloved cats feasting on something yummy then taking a sunbath.
Hugs Cecilia
Where does the time go?
ReplyDeleteAngel Eric is glad to know that you still love him, and he's sending purrs down to you from his perch in Heaven; can you hear them? ❤️
Such a beautiful remembrance! I am crying tears of love! I especially like that first up close picture of Eric - so precious! :) <3
ReplyDeleteIt is a sad anniversary, but Eric is not forgotten.
ReplyDeleteEric will live on in your hearts, forever. PURRS
ReplyDeleteEric's face s so expressive.....I just adore the pose in the first picture. The remembrances are awesome. Our Kali has her garden in the back with her loved oregano and beautiful flowers. A place in our hearts that is filled with her.

I know the sadness that you feel in your heart. Eric left us in March and Abby left the same year in August. It's hard to believe the passage of time. In some ways it soothes off the rough edges but it never lessens the severity of the emptiness that sits there like a huge crater, and although it may be invisible to those you cannot see it, nevertheless it sits there and there are moments when you are right back to the very moment...and I know it passes and we go back to our new normal, but things are never the same. Thinking of you. Deepest purrs
ReplyDeleteWe didn't start reading your blog until after Eric had gone, so we are always glad when you share memories of him. Purrs as you remember him.
ReplyDeleteThey all live on in our thoughts and memories, bringing many smiles and the occasional tears. How can it already be eight years?
ReplyDeleteThose plaques are lovely! What a nice memorial.
ReplyDeleteGosh! I can't believe it has been that long! It seems like yesterday! Eric was a unique soul and I am sure you still see him out of the corner of your eye. And feel his presence. I love the new signs! And the roses. Sending you love, virtual hugs and strength. Barb
ReplyDeleteSuch a precious little angel. Purrs for you today.
ReplyDeleteAwwww, lovely plaques, that's a beautiful memorial area.
ReplyDeleteDid the boys ever pull April Fool jokes? Or do something funny on April 1?
plaques are beautiful - what a lovely remembrance!
ReplyDeleteHandsome boy!!! Wish we had know you when the boys were still with you. That's a lovely memory garden.

ReplyDeleteYou were such a beautiful boy, Angel Eric. I wish I had known you😻The plaques are beautiful. We can imagine that it wasn't easy to replace them on this special, but emotional day. Even we feel it😿Soft Pawkisses to comfort you and Ivor as you remember your sweet boy🐾😽✨
ReplyDeleteThe plaques are beautiful and that looks like a very peaceful place in the garden. ((Hugs))
ReplyDeleteI love the plaques and soon, the boys' roses will be blooming.
ReplyDeleteI would love to be as fortunate as Carolyn was when she visited you (Austin's mom) and be standing there with you, Ivor and the boys. XO
Eric was an amazing mancat. So handsome and special. We are so happy Ivor was able to make new plaques and get them up for Eric's anniversary. Sending you both love and gentle purrs as you remember. XO
ReplyDeleteI'm all teary-eyed seeing those plaques. Just glad you post their adventures so we can keep seeing them. Thank you. xoxoxo
ReplyDeleteThe longing for beloved pets is eternal. Eric was beautiful!
ReplyDeleteEric was far too young to leave - but they always are, no matter their age. He was one fine-looking mancat, with a loving soul. His memory will shine like those new plaques.
ReplyDeleteOnce by your side, forever in your heart. Sending comforting thoughts.
ReplyDeleteWhat a fine, handsome boy he was. Even though we didn't get to know him, we knew of him through what our old bro William told us.
ReplyDeleteEric sure knew how to help his humans!
ReplyDeleteIt's so hard to believe it's been eight years, it seems like yesterday. Your memorial garden is beautiful xoxo Sending much love, we miss that boy (both boys), but are grateful that you share such lovely memories with us. (((hugs))) and love.
