Bridge Angels In 2014

Recommended Posts

Saying goodbye to the beautiful greyhounds and their friends who left us in 2014. As you run with the wind send a caress to wipe our tears.

Gone but never forgotten. Loved forever. Run free with those who have gone before you. Greet all those that will follow.

"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

Thank you for putting this together, as heartbreaking as it is. :cry1

 

Would you add Badger to February and Kenzie to October? I didn't add them to the months' lists but would like to have them included.

 

 

Thanks.

Missing Badger (Vf Get R Done: Quicksand Slip x Ll Tee el See), 5/04 - 2/14, who opened our hearts and our home to greyhounds; Kenzie (Slatex Kenzie: Randy Handy x Slatex Chrisy), 4/03 - 10/14, who really knew what a good dog she was; Falcon (Atascocita Sabat: Dodgem by Design x Atascocita Barb), 9/10 - 1/20, who was grumpy and snarky but eventually a little bit cuddly, too; Grandpa Grey the Galgo Español, 2008 (?) to 2022, who made us feel lucky to be the ones to teach him about pet life; and Lucia (Larking About x Anastasia, 5/12 to 8/23), our first brood matron and the sweetest speckly girl.

Too often it is extremely difficult to write about our own pets passing and to find fitting words when our friends here have a loss, hence my reason for beginning the Bridge Angels List.

 

This year I consider myself lucky. I only lost PUdge, my mutt girlie, and my mom.

Thanks Ducky. Our kids who've gone to the Bridge can't be honored too often. They're so special. It's a sad, but wonderful service you provide. Brings tears.

Thank you for your kind words.

 

It takes my breath away to see just how many leave us in one year's time.
