Rusty crossed the Rainbow Bridge today

[Chuck Holliman]

After a very courageous three year battle with cancer, kidney and liver issues, Rusty is in a better place tonight.  Because of his unfailing determination to overcome everything that life dealt him, we had a lot more time with him than we could have possibly hoped for.

Throughout all of his battles, he never lost his zest for life and was always the happiest, friendliest and most loving companion anyone could hope for.

Words cannot express the love that we have for him and now we have an empty hole in our hearts that will heal in time, but he will always be there.  He provided so much joy for my mother during her final years; hopefully they will be reunited and can again enjoy each other’s company.  We want to thank all of his friends and supporters, as your love and prayers provided extra incentive for him to be so brave in his battles against impossible odds.

Chuck, Jan & Rusty

Rusty, rest in peace.  You brought so much joy to the world and filled hearts with love.  Nothing in life could be more noble.

Chuck, I am so sorry to hear this.  I am glad that you were able to have so much more time with Rusty and that he was a joy to your mom.  My guys and I are sending hugs to you.

I truly believe Rusty lived so long because of the life you gave him. He wanted to stay with you for as long as he could because you are so beautiful.   Now, from all the love you have shown him, he can share with so many dogs at the Rainbow Bridge.  Bless you all.

Just seeing this and want you to know how sorry I am that you have lost your sweet boy.  He fought a good fight with you and your wife by his side. RIP Rusty!

Rusty may not have had a long life but he had a happy life thanks to your loving care. It is always so incredibly sad to have to say good bye.

[Sue, Murphy and Bella ()*o*()]

You and Jan have done an amazing job with Rusty and I'm sure your love and his incredible desire to be with you is what kept him going strong for as long as he did. But sadly even all the love in the world sometimes can't keep them with us. You are both in my thoughts during this time of grieving for your wonderful Rusty.

[Bonnie and Kona]

Thank you for letting us know. May you be comforted knowing you did everything possible to give Rusty your love and care. It has been a long journey. Blessings.

[Sue and Buddy]

Run free sweet Rusty.

I am so sorry. Sending gentle hugs.

[Ronna, Murphy & Wilson]

Oh Chuck, I am so sorry for your loss.  Rusty was an amazing dog and I am sending you and your family hugs.
