I am so sorry that it was Lexie's time to go.  Her pictures never ceased to bring a smile.  Wishing you peace and comfort as you navigate this next stage and adapt to your new normal.

Hugs.

I've always thought of Lexie as the Queen of Greytalk.  Actually, that's how my husband and I refer to her.

She was a once in a lifetime hound and her fans are bereft without her.

When I seen Lexie's name in the topics my heart stopped and then flat sunk when I seen my worse fear was true.  Thousands have admired her. She was so much more than 1 individual dog. Therapy helping people; super model; doting wife to Rocket; and especially BFF to all of her GT family.  Her crossing over is profound on many levels.  Of course she & Rocket are together as is fitting.  It does make me happy to think how happy they are.  I am sure she will always be a presence not just here on GT but in my life. I so admire her-she did it right.  And I will never forget the Rocket-Lexie romance and marriage which it was a blessing to be a part of.  They both had so much love-not only for each other-but for all of us as well.  Love is energy like everything else and cannot be destroyed even by death.  Only her body died. The real Lexie is a very special spirit that I am sure will continue to be a presence. Thank you so much Lexie! We love you and always will.:f_pink:f_pink:f_pink

Oh Lexie, you will be missed by all of us!   I've always enjoyed your fashion sense and was amazed at your restraint with plates of food in front of you, and your endless patience in posing!   You will be missed by all of us, you are a true :star   

Sending lots of hugs to your parents,  you leave behind a huge greyhound shaped hole in their lives. :f_white  But you gave them and all of us such joy!

Run Free Lexie and find Rocket at the Bridge!

Lexi touched the lives of so many people in this world and leaves a quite a legacy. She was very special to so many, so thank you from the bottom of my broken heart for sharing Lexi and her fashion designs with us. What a girl!

No one will ever wear a hat as stylishly as Lexie.

:nod   My all-time favorite is I think your grandmother or mother's hat -- with the little birdcage netting.  Lexie looked so beautifully 40's chic in it.  It's appropriate for her to be called the Queen of GreyTalk, because she must have been related to the hat-loving British royal family ladies.  Maybe, if you feel up to it, you could sometime arrange a retrospective montage of her most memorable hats?  

I also enjoyed each year's celebration of combined Christmas and Hanukkah, with Lexie's kind spirit shining out of her beautiful eyes.  And the little toofers just showing.  :wub:  

I never knew the story of her emergence from extreme shyness but I am so glad she was able to blossom and help people in her unique greyhound way.

This makes me so sad.  I've been a fan of Lexie's from afar for many years through GT, both here and on FB.  Having lost a dog suddenly this summer, in less than 5 minutes, I know how utterly shattering that is, even when you knew it was likely coming soon.  My heart breaks for you, but it was her way of taking the decision out of your hands and going on her terms.  

You asked for favorite memories of Lexie.  I would say mine would be the wedding, of course, but also the many many MANY pictures of her posing with food and in hats over the years.  You and I actually were facebook friends for a while after a June a few years ago when you did a photo contest for her birthday celebration.  (Her 10th, maybe?)  I just loved her in the hats, and hearing the stories of her therapy dog exploits.  The hat pictures also reminded me of BowWow Bonnets, a wonderful lady we lost a few years ago, who once sent me a couple of hats for my Robin's therapy dog work.

She was a special girl, loved by thousands of people all over the world.  May her memory soon bring you peace, smiles, and laughter to replace the tears.  <3

I literally gasped out loud when I read Lexie's name in the forum.  She seemed so alive and vital just a few hours ago!  

I remember her journey from a shy little thing into an extraordinary fashion model!  Her pictures always made me smile!

Run far and fast and free Lexie!!!  Make sure they give you the extra special huate couture wings!  We will all miss you!

Sweet, sweet Lexie :wub: You were absolutely one of a kind. I can't even look at a hat on anyone else, because there is no way they can ever pull off a look like you did. Run swift and free, straight to your Dear Rocket.

Many Hedgies (and Gimme Pig) hugs,

Miss Jennie

Maybe, if you feel up to it, you could sometime arrange a retrospective montage of her most memorable hats?  Ooooooh, yes, pretty please?

It is incredible to think of how many lives your sweet girl touched. She was a favorite hound to so many people. Thank you for sharing her with the world. She was a very special girl. I miss her photos.

Just a thought, how about re-running her photos starting with the first one you took of her. I think everyone here would love that. One a day or week.

Run free sweet Lexie and know that you are loved.
