Instructions
Decide whether you want to write a pet memorial for your family only or publish a pet memorial page on the internet. You could do both. The online pet memorial page gives you a chance to share your pet's story and pictures with family and friends.
Have the family sit down together and brainstorm. Get out a notebook and begin to write down some of the family's favorite memories with the pet. Remember some funny things your pet did such as chase his tail until he got dizzy. Include anything that you think is important about your pet.
Gather your pet's birth date and some pictures. You will want to include these in your memorial.
Start the memorial by stating the pets full name and date of birth. Follow that by his date of death and list all surviving family members.
Continue by adding all of the stories you collected about your pet and by mentioning the pets personality traits.
Finish by talking about your emotions. This includes how much you miss your pet. Then add your pictures to the memorial page. If you are using an online pet memorial page you can upload digital pictures with ease.
Share your pet memorial with your family and friends. You can read it out loud at your pets funeral or you can email them a link to your online pet memorial page.
