My blog about grief The reality is that you will grieve forever. You will not get over the loss of a loved one; you will learn to live with it. You will rebuild yourself around the loss you have suffered. You will be whole again but you will never be the same. Nor should you be the same, nor would you want to. ― Elisabeth Kübler-Ross Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest nrussell Posted September 24, 2012 Share Posted September 24, 2012 I'm so sorry for your loss. I work with Diane4114 at our local greyhound chapter and she first introduced me (and the many others!) to Bill through your dinner conversations. It was my favorite part of the newsletter. Bill was such a character, one of a kind for sure! Your conversations inspired me to create two photo albums of my hounds and include our funny *conversations*. Bill also introduced us to MOOSHIES! oh and the deliciousness of sprinkle cheese on food. I lost my greyhound Buck just about a year ago to cancer as well and I miss him every day. I can imagine there’s a BIG party at the bridge welcoming Bill tonight. He's a famous fellow! Lots of cookies, mooshies, and right legs. Thank you for sharing Bill and all your wonderful dinner conversations with us. Wishing you peace and comfort during this time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Time4ANap Posted September 24, 2012 Share Posted September 24, 2012 How I can sit here full of tears for a dog that I've never met, I have no idea. Bill was like family, even though I've never met him or his family. Thank you for catering (literally) to this special boy, whose antics had us in hysterics. I am so sorry that he left so quickly. I hope that someday when the pain lessens a little, you can honor him by printing his book of dinner conversations. Bill: it's all right legs, shaky cheese, whippy cream, cookies and Burpdogs at the bridge. Run pain-free buddy. The flower icon just doesn't seem appropriate here. Quote Camp Broodie.

queenwinniesmom Posted September 24, 2012 Share Posted September 24, 2012 Oh, Lori, I'm sure you know how many tears are being shed by so many people. All of Bill's fans---people who admired him, laughed with him, shook our heads at his unique, totally "Bill" take on life, and loved him without ever having met him. Thank-you for being such a perceptive translator of his inimitable spirit and personality, and thank-you for sharing him with us. We are sharing your sadness now, and mourning the loss of a true original. I'm so sorry you lost your precious Bill.
