Luci Barba
Luci, age 10 years old, crossed the Rainbow Bridge on September 6th, 2025. Cremation services accorded. Arrangements entrusted to Whispering Willow Pet Funeral & Cremation Services.
Luci was a girl, who lived a very simple life, marked by sleeping on the floor, sleeping on the couch, and of course, sleeping on the bed. She absolutely loved to go for car rides, playing in the snow, chasing her ball in the backyard and being with our English bulldog Vinnie.
She struggled with being disobedient at times, but behind closed doors, Luci brought my family and me so much unconditional warmth that no other human could ever provide. She was never too busy for us, never too tired and when one of us was going through a hard time, she was the perfect shoulder to lean onto.
Even as she struggled on her last days on earth, she still continued to fight and wagged her tail and put her head on our knees to let us know, she still loved us unconditionally. She loved us hard until the very end, and its up to us to give that same love back to her.
Bongo, age 4 years old, crossed the Rainbow Bridge on October 22nd, 2026. Cremation services accorded. Arrangements entrusted to Whispering Willow Pet Funeral & Cremation Services. Bongo and his brother Rambo were on knee boards at the Lake like they were surfing. He always looked like he was smiling and he was very social. He will be truly missed. Until we meet again at The Rainbow Bridge.
JB, age 10 years old, crossed the Rainbow Bridge on October 5th 2026. Cremation services accorded. Arrangements entrusted to Whispering Willow Pet Funeral & Cremation Services. A favorite moment would be watching JB try to eat everyone else's food. He sure loved to eat!
Shadow, age 14 years old, crossed the Rainbow Bridge on October 19th 2026. Cremation services accorded. Arrangements entrusted to Whispering Willow Pet Funeral & Cremation Services. Every day when I would come home, Shadow would meet me at the door. When I lived in Chicago and he was a kitten we would be up playing until 2/3 am. He was literally my shadow, he would wait for me outside the shower, sleep in bed with me every night, and I would lay there petting him until we fell asleep. Shadow was a one-person cat, very attached and protective of his mama. He had his eyes on her at all times and followed her room to room. Shadow was very proud and very gentleman-like. He constantly wanted to play even in his old age, until he got sick. His favorite treat was canned tuna and chicken.
Cooper, also known as Coopie, age 5.5 years old, crossed the Rainbow Bridge on September 15th 2026. Cremation services accorded. Arrangements entrusted to Whispering Willow Pet Funeral & Cremation Services. Cooper was an incredibly loving dog, he had a way of expressing love, in a way, no words could truly comprehend. Through thick and thin, he had a way of seeing the best in everyone around him, and returning it twice over. He had one floppy ear that would never quite sit right, he would always sleep in bed as if he were a little person. I will never know the kindness in a dog again like the kindness Cooper held for all the ones he loved. I will forever miss him, until we meet again at The Rainbow Bridge.
Lola Mae, age 10 years old, crossed the Rainbow Bridge on May 24th 2026. Cremation services accorded. Arrangements entrusted to Whispering Willow Pet Funeral & Cremation Services. Lola's favorite activity was to play with her stuffed monkeys. We used to joke that Lola was our daughter's "nanny" because she would sleep next to her and come get us every time she woke up. Lola would give the best hugs. She would wrap her paws around you and put her head on your shoulder. She also loved kittens and would light up whenever she heard or seen one. She was loved tremendously and she loved us fiercely.
Belle, age 10 years old, crossed the Rainbow Bridge on September 15th 2026. Cremation services accorded. Arrangements entrusted to Whispering Willow Pet Funeral & Cremation Services. Thinking back to little memories of Belle one of her most favorite things to do was ride on the golf cart, especially with Pops. Belle was a mom- she had a litter of puppies in 2019. She loved to be outside and to go for car rides. Belle had the sweetest personality and was also a very laid-back dog. She always knew when someone needed to be loved! Belle will be missed by her mom, dad, her brother Winston, and her sisters Bailey and Willow.
