A Vision Born from Love
The Hungry Puppy Rainbow Bridge Pet Memorial Park was born from a vision by store owner, Theresa Gibilisco, a long time pet owner who understands the profound loss of saying goodbye to a family member with fur, feathers, or scales. From her childhood hamster Oreo to the many pets she’s loved since (including birds, reptiles, farm animals, small animals, loud animals, exotic animals, insects and more), Theresa knows that our pets deserve to be remembered and honored.
An official dedication event will be announced soon, but for now, the park is open to all who wish to honor and remember their cherished companions.
“Losing a pet is one of the hardest experiences we face as pet owners,” said Gibilisco. “They’re not just animals; they’re family. This park is a place where our community, near and far, can come together to honor those bonds and find comfort in shared joyful memories.”
