Missing our Daddy - Four Years

Four years ago, at 1:32 pm our Daddy left us to go to Heaven.  That day our lives were forever changed and our hearts shattered into a million pieces.

Mom made a collage of photos of happier days. We share this every year but we know we have new friends who never saw it.  We had to add the one in the middle with the radar gun that Mom Pam from Two Spoiled Cats did for us a couple of years ago.  Daddy loved being a Satellite Beach Police Volunteer.  Other photos are of holidays, vacations, Guardian ad Litem and silly fun days.




























It It sure seems impossible that another year has gone by.  We miss him so much and still can't believe he is gone.  We know he's still with us in spirit but that's not the same as having him here with us for real. We know he was there to welcome Angel Allie but we're still heartbroken.  We hope he loves Reesie as much as we do.  When we lost Angel Ellie and Daddy was in the hospital, Mom promised we would get another Birman girl to love.  Reesie is that girl.

                                           






Thank you all for traveling this journey with us.  You will never know how much your support has meant to us.

On a happier note, don't miss out on Periwinkle and Stinky's Adventure today at The Cat On My Head.  Click HERE to teleport over!

We're thinking of you and remember Bill (and all your angels) with you. It's not fair - but I guess we'll just have to accept that somehow (if you figure out how to accept the unfairness of loss - let me know!).

That really is a great collage. So many memories in one place.

And we KNOW he's missing ALL of you as much as ALL of you are missing him -

At least he's surrounded by so many NowFurAngels -

Dear Raz, Noelle, Reesie and Sharon...

Beautiful collage of a life well lived.

Big healing hugs on this sad anniversary. ♥

Pam and Teddy said...

Those of us who love you have an empty spot in our hearts that Bill filled...he was PART of you and you were PART of him and you both have been part of US. That doesn't go away - time and space do not change that. Four years seems like a long time but of course when it comes to loss, it isn't. It feels like just yesterday. He is always there by your side and I know he already loves Reesie to bits - and he's happy you got another Birman just as the two of you planned.............

Special Hugs..........Pam

I looked slowly and carefully through the collage andI was so glad to see you both happy and in love and glad to be a family. My love to you and the fur family on this very very sad and hard to bear, Anniversary.

Sharon, that four years seems like yesterday and a decade ago all at the same time. I know Bill would be so proud of how well you are doing taking care of yourself and the kitties, and also how pleased he is that Reesie has found her forever home with you, Raz and Noelle. I loved seeing the memory board with all the beautiful photos of you, Bill and the kitties. Keeping you in my heart today as you remember. Sending lots of love and warm hugs, Janet, Tom and all the Kitties Blue 💓

I am sure he heartily approves of Reesie and loves her to bits!
