Tata Barker

January 20, 2005 - May 9, 2021

Tata was brought home as a kitten to Kennedy when she was about 6 months old by her dad. They instantly bonded and became best friends. Tata wanted to be anywhere Kennedy was and always met her when she came in the door. She actually done that with everyone, she was always excited to see people! She was the best snuggle buddy and knew when you were sick or sad and would lay right by your side. Tata was Kennedy’s loyal best friend for 16 years and Kenley’s for 10 years. Tata was a sweet, lovable and lazy cat, always wanting to sleep. Tata gave us many happy memories. She will be deeply missed and forever in our hearts and minds! TaTa was cremated under the direction of the Pet Cremation Service provided by Laurel Funeral Home.

There’s something missing in my home,

           I feel it day and night,

I know it will take time and strength 

           before things feel quite right 

But just for now, I need to mourn,

          My heart- it needs to mend.

Though some may say, “It’s just a pet,”

          I know I’ve lost a friend.

You’ve brought such laughter to my home,

          and richness to my days.

A constant friend through joy or loss

         With gentle, loving ways.

Companion, friend, and confidante,

          A friend I won’t forget. 

You’ll live forever in my heart,

         My sweet, forever pet.
