It never thunders at the Bridge, and your food bowl is ALWAYS filled. So strange not living in Atty World. I was a love struck handmaiden to your every whim.

lukasmom Posted June 2, 2014 Share Posted June 2, 2014 I was so sorry to hear about Shawn. He was always so funny. We loved seeing him at Mountain Hounds. I hope that someone can let his family know how loved he was among the Mountain Hound people and Greytalk. God Bless you Shawn. May your reunion with your beloved hound be sweet and joyous. You will be missed by all the people whose lives you have touched. Janice and Luka Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

greytpups Posted June 3, 2014 Share Posted June 3, 2014 (edited) I was lucky enough to see Shawn when I went to MH and last year he looked really good. I always enjoyed chatting with him in the "pool". Rest well dear Shawn, you will be missed. What a coincidence that he passed away during MH Edited June 3, 2014 by greytpups Quote Jan with precious pups Emmy (Stormin J Flag) and Simon (Nitro Si) and Abbey Field.

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...
