Heaven got a new angel yesterday. My heart is broken, but in time, it will be okay. I wish I could write more, but I can't seem to at this point.
Tears are flowing and this is all I can do for now.
To all who loved Marley, we thank you. He somehow knew.
Marley McCole
August 1, 2002 - March 27, 2017
You will be in our hearts forever.
Love,
Kim
Kim - My heart is crying too. I loved Marley without even seeing him.

My tears are flowing for Marley, you and your family. Marley was well loved and had a caring family. What could be better than that?

I love you Kim,

I am so so so sorry, Kim. There are really no words anyone can say that can ease your heart when you lose a beloved pet. Just know that Marley is beyond all pain and is running like a puppy again somewhere over The Rainbow Bridge. xo Diana

I'm so sorry my dear sweet friend. My heart goes out to you and your family. I know how much you love Marley and how heart broken you must be. It's never easy to say goodbye to our babies.
Please know that I'm thinking of you.
Love you,

So very sorry for your loss of Marley. Having been through this with three of our pets, I know how difficult it is.

Oh,Kim! I am so very sorry! Marley always looked to be surrounded by serenity and I know that is because of the lovely, idyllic life that you provided for him. A doggie could not possibly want for more. God bless you and your family in your days of loss. Marley will always be with you in your lovely gardens.

A gentle hug and a prayer for comfort. Marley has been such a beautiful part of your life and your blog. We will all miss him.

So sorry for your loss. Sending you hugs, love and prayer for all of you.

Kim, I have been a "lurker" for many years. I love Daisy Cottage so much and your puppies have always tugged at my heart because I, too, have a mini long haired blond doxie, Peaches. Your dogs become a huge part of your family's life. Marley has crossed the rainbow bridge and will be waiting for you on the other side, this I know. God Bless You.

Oh no! I'm so very sorry, Kim. Through the years I've so enjoyed your pictures of your sweethearts and I'll sorely miss the ones of beautiful Marley. My condolences, dear. Please know you're in my thoughts and prayers. May God comfort your heart as only He can. Hugs, Debra

Never easy to read about the loss of a beloved pet. Knowing that pain very well, I'm so very sorry Kim. Marley was such a handsome dog. I truly believe in rainbow bridge which has helped me in this situation. I hope it helps you.
Hugs

I'm so very sorry for your loss. I've been where you are many times, and it never gets easier. I hope you find comfort in the fact that Marley was well loved while here on this earth. May the day come when every dog experiences the love of that special person or family that Marley was blessed to have had.

Dearest Kim,
He was such a beautiful soul and he saw the same in you. He was loved beyond measure and could not have hoped for a better home, family or momma. Sending my love to you and understanding completely what you are going through.

I am so sorry, Kim. It is so hard when they go. If only they could stay as long as we do. I know how you feel. I still cry for my Lucy every day. Somehow when we get older we feel the loss of our fur babies more. Hang in there. I will be thinking of you and praying for you.

Please comfort Kim Lord God and all who lived Marley.

God bless dear Marley. . . he was a beautiful dog.
His face held so much wisdom and character in it - even from little on. Your photos of him keep his spirit alive.
It's so very hard when they leave this earth, but I know you will feel his unconditional love and joy as part of you always.
Look up for Marley's star shining bright in the sky*~*~*~*
I love you, Kim. xoxo

Kim,
I'm so sorry. Dear Daisy Cottage was a refuge for me after the unexpected loss of my father in 2009; I discovered your blog shortly after his death. Your photos that so beautifully share your world with all of us have made you feel like extended family, along with your children, grandchildren and Marley and Maggie. One of my all-time favorite photos from your site, one in fact that I pinned, is of Marley peeking through your front door. Blessings to you as you adjust to this world without Marley in it.

Oh sweet Kim, I haven't been to your site for awhile. Today I felt the need to visit your site and just saw your post about Marley. I am so heartbroken for you and you son. I have two fur babies also and talk to them constantly telling them how much I love them with all my heart and sole. So I can only imagine how sad this has been for you all. I am so sorry. I hope time will ease the pain of your loss. Rest in Peace sweet Marley. Prayers

I was just thinking about Dear Daisy Cottage and clicked over to the link to this site.
Saddened to read about beautiful Marley. I hope the pain has lessened a bit by now. However, Marley will remain alive in you and your family's memories forever.

Kim, I'm so sorry. I'm looking down at Otis and Milo snuggled in their nest. They will be 13 soon. And I'm remembering all those darling ones that came before them and how much it hurts when they leave. Thinking of you and your beautiful Marley.
Posted by: Dewena | 05/14/2017 at 07:19 PM
So sorry about your dog, Marley. Our animals are family. I just lost my beautiful white cat about a month ago. She was my best friend. My husband has been sick this year and she was my comfort. My heart goes out to you.

Godspeed, sweet Marley. If you see Sophie Belle Patterpaw, tell her Mombo says hey. Love to you in your loss, Kim.
