Pet Grief Reading: A Dog’s Purpose

Tuesday, February 28th, 2012

Often, a pet is a member of the family.  Your time with your beloved pet is meaningful, and the loss can be painful.  In the book A Dog’s Purpose, author W. Bruce Cameron tells the story of a dog that is reincarnated until he figures out what his purpose is.

In an interview with Paw Nation, Cameron said the readers he most wants are those that have lost a dog.  The book was inspired by an experience with a dog that reminded him of his childhood dog.  The hope and love between a dog and its family is heartwarming and poignant.

Be sure to read the interview and the book.  A Dog’s Purpose might help you find the message of love and life in your pet.

Flag Retirement Program

Wednesday, February 15th, 2012

“When it come to the time when I am old and faded, do not fly me in disrepair, rather retire me from my duties only to replace me with a new flag so that I may continue to symbolize our country.”

The flag of our nation should always be a strong, vivid symbol of our land and fly brightly in our minds.  Our flag is a symbol of our people, our freedom and our strength.

We have partnered with local Veteran’s groups to collect retired flags and cremate them in the most dignified manner, with a veteran.  This is done with honor as part of our commitment to the men and women who fought under the flag of our country.  YOU MAY DROP OFF RETIRED FLAGS AT ANY KAYS-PONGER & USELTON  OR LEMON BAY FUNERAL  HOME LOCATIONS OR GULF PINES MEMORIAL PARK.

If you would like to establish a Flag Retirement Program for your Veterans of Foreign Wars Post of American Legion Post, email us at info@kays-ponger.com or info@lemonbayhf.com
