JenniferS Posted July 16, 2009 Share Posted July 16, 2009 I had to let my sweet Quiet Man go suddenly early yesterday morning and I was with him til the end. The grief and sadness and shock I feel is only comforted with the thoughts of how incredibly wonderful he was and how much I loved him and how much he loved me. He was truly one of a kind, and despite all his quirks which so many of you know about, he was the best dog and the love of my life. He loved his greyhound friends so much, and loved his walks, his toys, his couch, his breakfast and his dinner (he never turned a meal down in 7 years), his cookies, his extended family, his brother Murphy, and his mumma. He is what brought me into the greyhound world and has changed my life forever. I literally have thousands and thousands of memories of him and they will sustain me forever. I know he is looking down upon us and is with many of his friends, like Grainne, Klem, Rev, his sister Geraldine, and so many others. Run free my sweet boy, your mumma loves you very much.
