Jan, my heart breaks with yours. She truly was a bright and shining star.

 

Run free, Gracie... twirl for the angels.

How can this be? Not your sweet Gracie!!! I'm so very sorry. She will be a most beautiful angel (with her halo a-tilt from twirling).

Her time with you was short, but her love and memories will be never-ending.

Blessed is the person who has earned the love of an old dog.

I'm so sorry, Jan. You said it best; She knew that she was home. Thank you for giving her that.

 

Twirl pain-free, sweet Gracie. :beatheart:f_pink:beatheart

"It came to me that every time I lose a dog they take a piece of my heart with them. And every new dog who comes into my life, gifts me with a piece of their heart. If I live long enough, all the components of my heart will be dog, and I will become as generous and loving as they are." -- Unknown

I am so sorry.

 

Your beautiful Gracie grabbed my heart right through the internet. Thank you for sharing her with us.

 

You were all lucky to have each other, even though it was such a short time.

I'm so sorry for your loss. What a brilliant soul she was, to show so much of herself to you in such a short time. What a gift you gave her, all of your heart. Godspeed Gracie! f_yellow

I'm so sorry for your loss :0( Although I'm mostly a lurker (posting in amber alert when needed, my work schedule changes often so I can't always follow the threads) I always looked forward to reading about Gracie. When Meri first posted her picture she touched my heart; she is my Roxy's (Xl Rocketier) littermate. So glad you found each other, even though it is never long enough. I believe in shining stars, guardian angels, and the Rainbow Bridge - and that some day you will feel Gracie's soul connect again to yours. May you find comfort in the many wonderful memories of Gracie.

Oh, Jan.....I am so sorry to hear this. What a special girl she was! I remember when you posted the photo of her lying on the bed and how it made me laugh; she KNEW she was home. My heart is broken for you, but I will celebrate the joy that she brought to you when your heart was broken. Many, many hugs to you, my friend. Twirl free, sweet Gracie.

Jan I am so sorry for your loss of your beautiful girl - I was so hoping that 2013 would be a much better year for you - you have lost so many of your precious babies. I wish I lived closer so that I could help you or at least give you a shoulder to lean on

 

Love

MESSAGE FROM THE RAINBOW BRIDGE

 


some things I'd like to say.
But first of all, to let you know,
that I arrived okay.
I'm writing this from the Bridge.
Here I dwell with God above.
Here there's no more tears of sadness.
Here is just eternal love.
Please do not be unhappy
just because I'm out of sight.
Remember that I am with you
every morning, noon and night.
That day I had to leave you
when my life on earth was through,
God picked me up and hugged me
and He said, "I welcome you.
It's good to have you back again,
you were missed while you were gone.
As for your dearest family,
They'll be here later on."
God gave me a list of things,
that he wished for me to do.
And foremost on the list,
was to watch and care for you.
And when you lie in bed at night
the day's chores put to flight,
God and I are closest to you...
in the middle of the night.
When you think of my life on earth,
and all those loving years,
because you are only human,
they are bound to bring you tears.
But do not be afraid to cry:
it does relieve the pain.
Remember there would be no flowers,
unless there was some rain.
I wish that I could tell you
all that God has planned.
If I were to tell you,
you wouldn't understand.
But one thing is for certain,
though my life on earth is o'er.
I'm closer to you now,
than I ever was before.
There are rocky roads ahead of you
and many hills to climb;
But together we can do it
by taking one day at a time.
It was always my philosophy
and I'd like it for you too;
That as you give unto the world,
the world will give to you.
If you can help somebody
who's in sorrow and pain;
Then you can say to God at night...
"My day was not in vain."
And now I am contented...
that my life was worthwhile.
Knowing as I passed along
I made somebody smile.
God says: "If you meet somebody
who is sad and feeling low;
Just lend a hand to pick him up,
as on your way you go.
When you're walking down the street
with me on your mind;
I'm walking in your footsteps
only half a step behind."
"And when it's time for you to go...
from that body to be free.
Remember you're not going...
you're coming here to me."

Jan - I'm so very sorry that Gracie had to go to the Bridge so soon after coming into your forever home. She found her way to you when you needed her most, she was well-loved and the two of you made the most of every day you shared together. She sounds like such a special girl.......

 

This is a favorite poem of mine, the author is unknown and I've made one small change to it.......

 

May you rest in peace, in fulfillment, in love

May you run straight home in God's embrace

 

Into the freedom of the wind and sunshine

We let you go

 

Into the dance of the stars and the planets

We let you go

 

Into the wind's breath and the hands of the star maker

We let you go

 

We love you, we miss you, we want you to be happy

Go safely, go twirling, go running home . . .

 

Hugs, my friend.
