macoduck Posted December 19, 2012 Share Posted December 19, 2012 At the Pearly Gates St Peter tried to direct Jilly Bean toward the small dog side of the park as she headed to the big dog side. "Why ever would you want to play with those big greyhounds?" asked St Peter. "Play?" replied Jilly Bean, "I am their queen and they have been waiting for me. Now unless you have some french fries, please move out of my way."

Guest ladyhound Posted December 19, 2012 Share Posted December 19, 2012 Judy and Mike and Kevin, I am so very sorry for your loss. I was very privileged to meet Jilli Bean on several occasions and she made me fall in love with little dogs like I never even knew I could. Such a sweet, funny, spirited little girl, a teeny tiny little thing ruling a house full of big tall greyhounds. It was an awesome thing to see. I think Mike had a wonderful idea to celebrate her birthday anyway, that is a wonderful honor to her. Have no doubt her brothers and sisters at the bridge are having quite a welcoming birthday party for her.... Many hugs and much love to you all.

Guest FawnFan Posted December 19, 2012 Share Posted December 19, 2012 (edited) I'm so very sorry for your loss of The Bean. Like others have said, she was one of my favorites here on GT too. Thank you for providing her with her forever home and for sharing her stories here on GT. She certainly was a character and one I personally admired. I will keep you, your family and your pack in my thoughts and prayers tonight. Run free sweet dear Jilly Bean run free ~Jean ETA: Macoduck - your words paint a very probable picture of Bean's arrival at the Pearly Gates. Thank you for sharing and I hope St. Peter stepped aside so she could get to work. RIP Jilly Bean Edited December 19, 2012 by FawnFan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

greg1229 Posted December 19, 2012 Share Posted December 19, 2012 I am so sorry to hear this, in the years since I joined GT, I could always count on the Beanie to be a constant. But know she is over the bridge, being the task master to every houndie there. Things must ahve been getting out of hand and she knew her skills were needed there and you had things under control here. Bean, keep'em flying right and watch over them till we all get there.

I've not been on GT much for the past few years, but she is one honorary 'hound' whose antics I've especially enjoyed. What a special little girl she was.
