It is with profound gratitude and sadness that we say goodbye to Bella Renco, our beloved 13-year-old Cavapoo therapy dog. For more than a decade, Bella was a steady, comforting presence at the funeral home, greeting families at the door with gentle eyes and a wagging tail, sitting quietly beside those who needed a moment of peace, and offering the kind of wordless compassion that only a loyal dog can give.

Bella's work was simple but sacred. She knew when to lean in and listen or offer a paw of ease. She padded down the hallways, visiting our offices and encouraging us to take a quick walk outside. We found laughter in her silliness, and a breath of relief in her gentle company during long days. She had a way of making heavy rooms feel lighter, reminding us that love is still present, even when words fail.

When the workday ended, Bella celebrated every homecoming like a parade. She was the quiet shadow in the kitchen, an enthusiastic exercise partner, and a gentle source of calm for her family. In the soft routines of family life, she offered the same unwavering comfort she shared with our community, reminding her people that home is, above all, a place of being loved.

Beyond her calling, Bella loved sunshine naps, foot races, pretend bullfights, and her "cookies." Her spirit was kind, curious, fiercely loyal, and our protector as she bravely barked at

Bella is survived by her devoted family, her colleagues at the funeral home, and the countless friends she made simply by being there when needed. She leaves behind a legacy of quiet grace, a reminder that compassion can be gentle and steady, and that small acts of comfort spread far beyond the moment.

We are grateful for each day she shared with us. In honoring Bella, we honor the kind work she did, one tail wag and doggy kiss at a time.

Rest well, sweet Bella. You did your job beautifully.
