“It’s incredibly important for people to grieve whatever loss they may experience in their lives,” said Cherie Fry, Owner/Founder of Paws To Angels. “Pets are a part of the modern family and are sometimes the only ‘children’ a ‘pet parent’ may have in their lives. We want to assist them in expressing their love, accepting their grief and remembering these family members in a meaningful way.”
