Batmom Posted January 9, 2016 Share Posted January 9, 2016 I cried all the way through your story, Tricia. And smiled in places, too. You couldn't fix everything, but you could fix a lot, and you did. Murray and your family -- you taught each other so very well. Godspeed, good boy.

Remolacha Posted January 9, 2016 Share Posted January 9, 2016 Several of us were talking at a M&G today about that special dog, the one that you know instantly is yours, and you are theirs. The one you have a deeper connection with that can't really be explained in words. I am so sorry you have lost your special boy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

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...

DesiRayMom Posted January 9, 2016 Share Posted January 9, 2016 I'm so very sorry that Murray is gone from this earth. Your photographs over the years speak volumes about the love radiated between you. He was a special lad, and you are special parents to have learned to let him shine. Shine on, Murray....I'll be looking for your star tonight. Quote Blessed is the person who has earned the love of an old dog. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Vers Posted January 9, 2016 Share Posted January 9, 2016 Tricia and Burke, my heart breaks for your loss and I'm writing through tears. Murray could not have found bigger, kinder, smarter hearts than yours and he has been so fortunate to have your unrelenting love. I have loved every picture here of him and had some small hope we'd meet him (and you!) some day. True love wins even when there's a huge, heartbreaking loss. You and Murray had real love between you. I'll be wishing peace to your hearts for a long time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BatterseaBrindl Posted January 9, 2016 Share Posted January 9, 2016 Murray has always been one of my favourite GT hounds and I, along with so many others, was hoping the treatment would buy him many more months with you. He loved you as much as you loved him ..... and love that captures the heart and touches the soul remains forever. Hold all your special memories close to your heart......

3greytjoys Posted January 9, 2016 Share Posted January 9, 2016 Tricia and Burke, My deepest, sincere sympathy is with you as you process this terribly difficult loss of your beloved Murray. Murray was a treasure. How fortunate that Burke encouraged your visit to the kennel that day, and that you opened your hearts to him as a diamond in the rough. As tears flowed throughout your memorial, I understand that intense and unique bond we build with our rare heart hounds that require the most special care. Spending full time with our hounds intensifies our losses. Murray will be remembered fondly and missed by so many of us. Godspeed Murray as he joins Bee. May his spirit remain embedded in your hearts until you meet again. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
