Marje, Mike and brother Tobey :bighug::bighug::bighug:

As a lot of us, I have no words right now....Gracie has been such an important and loved part of LL that it's incomprehensible that she's gone. Will try to say something more later when I can

Fly free sweet Gracie and land softly cat_wings>o
 
Heart just broken. Gracie was such a special, special girl. Willie, Herbie and I will be lighting the mantle candle in her honor this evening... and there will be quite the welcoming crew just across the bridge tonight.

Holding you close, Marje, Mike and Tobey.
 
I don't have the right words to express how sorry and how said I am to read this....:(:(:((((((Marje))))((((Mike))))((((Tobey)))) :bighug::bighug::bighug:You are all in my thoughts and prayers today. LBG, please give all of LL a sign when you've made it to the Bridge. Sweet Gracie, your family's love for you is immense, please look in on them as they grieve your passing. You are and will be profoundly missed in LL. :(:(:(
 
Dearest Marje, Mike, and Tobey....our hearts have shattered along with yours. Gracie was/is truly one-of-a-kind, and your love and devotion as touched and inspired us all - and that will always, always be a part of who all of us are. All of you are in our thoughts and prayers:bighug::bighug::bighug:

can't post much now.....our hearts are forever broken and we are devastated.

She crossed peacefully in my arms. Thank you all so very much, our dear family, for being there through the last week and the last five years.

Oh, God, Marje! I just happened to see on FB - I HAD to come and say something - although I can't even see what I am typing through my own tears. I am devastated for you, for Mike, for Tobey. I am so very sorry. Wish I had some words to comfort you, wish there was something I could do. I wish I could take the damn pain away. So sorry.
 
Oh God NO!!!!

Lighting the never ending ring of candles for your beloved Gracie.

It's just not fair. We thought that Gracie would be able to beat all her recent medical issues and give you many more years. Sadly, it was not to be.

Sending plenty of hugs to {{{{{Marje and Mike}}}}}
 
((((((((((Marje, Mike & Tobes))))))))))

Even eight hours after first learning this, I still can't manage to put the right words together. It was hard trying to maintain while at work today, so I wouldn't have to try to explain to visitors why my eyes were red and teary. For now, my heart goes out to all in your home. If someone had asked me when I woke this morning what the worst news I could receive today would be, it would have been this.

Love and infinite hugs,
Carl
 
I echo Carl's sentiment. It's been hours since I read this devastating news and I'm still in shock. Sweet Gracie...I thought she would beat this. Our hearts are broken. Fly free, Gracie girl.
 
Oh (((((((Marje))))))), I am so sorry for your loss...Nobody could have fought harder than you and Mike and Princess Gracie... you are so incredibly strong and courageous. Sending love and prayers and hugs for all of you. There is one newly-arrived helluva bright star in the skies tonight...Fly Free Sweet Precious Gracie- you were so loved.

Just came on to check on Gracie. I am devastated to hear that she is gone. She was so loved. Life isn't fair sometimes. I loved hearing about her stories. I hope you can take comfort in the good times you shared. Fly free sweet Gracie.cat_wings>o
Hugs and Prayers to you, Mike and Gracie,
 
I am so very sorry to hear that Gracie has crossed. It was so apparent how very much you and your husband loved her. Fly free sweet girl. cat_wings>o
 
Thank you all very much and please forgive us that we can’t say much right now but please, please know that we feel your grief and your love and we know our LBG feels it, too. Soon, I hope, I will be able to put together some words to tell you what happened. Thank you for your strength and comfort during this extremely tragic time. Please know you are all in our thoughts and we send the greatest love to you all for being our friends and loving our little Principessa.
 
One of the great kitties of Lantus/Lev Land has slipped away from us all. We're holding all of your familly close in our hearts, grieving with you at this terrible loss.

Fly free of your broken body, little Gracie - no one has ever been loved & treasured more than you . . . with your cute quirks, little horns and hisses, and special affection for Lupita. So many special stories of Gracie and her personality. Small in stature but so big in personality! You'll be missed, little one.

(((Marje))) I'm heartbroken, and yet still in shock, like you.
I want to say that J.D. is beside her and showing her around, because I feel that he is. But, I know words like that didn't comfort me much at my time of loss. Take all the time you need. My hugs and prayers go out to you.
Fly Free, Happy, & Healthy, like a kitten once again, Little Brown Girl. We all miss you and love you, so much.
 
Dear Marje, Mike, and Tobey,

Gracie inspired us all. So courageous, so much fun, so smart, so loving. I can't write more now. Just know that we are grieving with you and we know that you can feel Gracie's love and gratitude surrounding you and holding you close.
Fly free, LBG, on your beautiful new golden wings. You are much loved. cat_wings>o

In deepest sympathy,
Ella & Edward, Rusty, and Stu (GA)

No need to say anything until you feel up to it. Take alol the time you need. I just keep thinking of how excited Gracie must be to see her hero and buddy Max again.
 
(((((((((((Marje, Mike, and Tobey)))))))))))))
My words will be more eloquent at a future time, as I have been trying to let this sink in and failing to do so.
Please know that Will and I are holding you in our hearts and shedding many tears with you, with all of L/L.
Take care of yourselves and each other, take the time you need, my dear friends. :bighug:

Fly free, dearest, sweetest GracieGirl. You will always be loved loved loved.
:rb_icon:
 
I am sorry Marje. There simply are not words. I will always hold you and Mike, Tobey, all the furkids close to my heart. Miss Gracie, I shall always remember with a smile on my face. You were one of the best. Fly free on your golden wings, land softly at the Bridge. I know for certain Mannie is there waiting for you. He will help you find you way. :rb_icon:



Such a sad day in LL.
 
(((((Marje, Mike & Tobey)))))
I am just so heartbroken. We are all crying with you today.
Gracie was such a big part of LL and we all feel like we lost our own baby.
I wish I could reach out and hug you. I wish we could all hug each other.
Please know that I am thinking of you and sending much love.

Fly free, sweet Gracie. You will always be loved. :rb_icon:
 
Marje, Mike & Tobey - As so many people have already said, words fail me at this time. My mind is numb with sadness as my heart breaks for you. You all are in my thoughts and prayers.

Fly free, sweet Gracie. You have earned your wings and get to frolic at the Rainbow Bridge. :rb_icon: Don't forget to check in on your beans and Tobes to remind them that you're still watching over them. They'll be missing you and your sassiness....as will LL.

OMG (((Marje))), this is the most shocking, sad news. I am so, so terribly sorry for the loss of your precious girl and what I know is your broken heart.
No kitty could have felt more loved than Gracie, you and Mike cared for her like a queen. I know there are no words right now, but please feel all the love that is here and may it provide comfort in your grief. We all hurt for you and with you. I know she leaves a massive hole in your heart, a crater...and how very much you will miss her. She is sure a legend around here. I know all the LL GA kitties are welcoming her to the Bridge with open paws. Fly free sweet Gracie girl...and land softly. cat_wings>o

wishing you peace and comfort...
with my sympathies,
ooo's, Betty

((((Marje, Mike, and Tobey)))) I'm so sorry. I'm so shocked I don't even know what to say. Please know that I am sending love and hugs to you guys.

Gracie was such a special girl, and I loved her from afar, like so many others. My heart is broken with you:bighug::bighug::bighug:
 
"Do not go gentle into that good night....Rage against the dying of the light."
Gracie, you gave every ounce of strength to your fight.
Know your beans did all they could for you, but in the end, you needed the peace that only the Bridge could give.
May you rest eternally with all the beautiful cat souls who have gone ahead and paved a shining path for you.
 
{{{{{ Marje }}}}} I am so sorry for you and Mike. I'm in shock and so greatly saddened by the crossing of your beautiful LBG. Gracie was so special and so very lucky to have had you and Mike as her beans. She could not have been more loved or better cared for. We all know how much you loved your sassy little girl and can only imagine the extreme heartbreak and loss you're experiencing. My heart is heavy at the thought of your pain. May you find comfort in knowing that one day you will be reunited with your baby girl. Until then I hope your memories of the time you had with Gracie, and the bond and love you shared, will help to heal your broken heart. My sincerest condolences to you and Mike.

Fly free and land softly beautiful little Gracie. You are loved and will be greatly missed by your momma and daddy.
 
Oh Marje my heart is breaking so much right now for you, Mike, and Tobby .
I could not sleep and something told me to log on and see how everyone was doing since it had been way too long since I had checked in. The first thing I saw was this post and could not believe it.
Sweet sweet Gracie .... No no no ! I am in tears trying to type something and nothing seems right.
Princess Gracie, you had the BEST family! I know you are in heaven now with all our kitties that have gone before you. You certainly left a huge void back here . You were so greatly loved and taken care of by Marje and Mike. You helped so many others here through the years deal with health issues for our babies. Your experiences and Marje's vast knowledge and caring saved so many kitties here including my Monet (and Picasso).
My prayer for you is that you are now at peace and you can look down at Marje, Mike , and Toby and help them get through this.
Marje, sending you my thoughts, prayers , hugs, and love. I am so very sorry.
Fly free Gracie , fly free .....
 
(((((Marie))))) I am so, so sorry. Please try to find comfort knowing that Jinx and all of our beloved friends who have passed were waiting for Gracie, and will be with her until you and Mike see her again. Even though they've passed, they all lived happier, healthier lives because of you. I will always cherish the care and compassion you showed me and Jinx, and I am proud to call you my friend and to have been blessed by your kindness.
 
My heart breaks for you. It is SO unfair when we are willing to do anything to make them healthy again and keep them with us and there us nothing we can do but love them enough to let them go. I was so praying Gracie would win her battles. You fought so hard. Wrap yourself in the good memories.
Land softly sweet Gracie. Your light will shine on in LL.
 
{{{{ Marje }}}}
My thoughts continue to be with you and Mike and I'm sending gazillion comfort vines to you both. I just read your beautifully touching and loving words on Gracie's ss. My heart is aching for you even more than yesterday as the reality of this very tragic and unexpected loss sinks in even more. I'm not at all surprised that you can feel her with you. It's impossible to know whose love is greater - yours he hers. One thing is for sure - it's eternal.

:bighug::bighug::bighug::bighug::bighug::bighug:
 
((((((Marje, Mike Tobey)))))) I am so very sorry about your beautiful Gracie. I wish i had something to say that would help but there is nothing i can offer except my love and hugs. I know she will be close to you forever because the love you share is a bridge to forever. huge hugs to you, Mike and Tobey. tears and smiles for LBG. love you Gracie.
 
I hope you find as much comfort with this as I do

Norse Legend of the Rainbow Bridge

Just this side of heaven is a place called Rainbow Bridge.

When an animal dies that has been especially close to someone here, that pet goes to Rainbow Bridge. There are meadows and hills for all of our special friends so they can run and play together. There is plenty of food, water and sunshine, and our friends are warm and comfortable.

All the animals who had been ill and old are restored to health and vigor. Those who were hurt or maimed are made whole and strong again, just as we remember them in our dreams of days and times gone by.

The animals are happy and content, except for one small thing; they each miss someone very special to them, who had to be left behind.

They all run and play together, but the day comes when one suddenly stops and looks into the distance. His bright eyes are intent. His eager body quivers. Suddenly he begins to run from the group, flying over the green grass, his legs carrying him faster and faster.

You have been spotted, and when you and your special friend finally meet, you cling together in joyous reunion, never to be parted again. The happy kisses rain upon your face; your hands again caress the beloved head, and you look once more into the trusting eyes of your pet, so long gone from your life but never absent from your heart.

Then you cross Rainbow Bridge together....

Im so sorry for your loss of sweet Gracie. I couldn't believe what I saw when I logged in last night. I haven't been on here much lately, and I didn't realize she had been ill and taken a turn for the worst. I cant imagine how devastated you and Mike are. I just wanted to send my deepest sympathies and peace and love for your heavy hearts..:rb_icon:
