....My heart is shattered to hear of the passing of my sweet friend, Nan! I was so blessed to have come to know Nan during my walks with Thatcher, starting with teasing and sidewalk chats with Nan and Bill, as he sat and "supervised" her work on the front lawn. After Bill passed, the sidewalk talks became kitchen table discussions and lamentations, where we both found support and caring as we shared our concerns and joys over her endless plate of homemade goodies and a hot cuppa! I truly believe that Divine intervention had us meet when we did, as the arrival of Covid threw so many challenges into our lives, and long talks ended with uplifted spirits and huge hugs. Thatcher, my sweet Bouvier, shall forever stubbornly pull me to her front door, to beckon for treats, a cool drink and a rest on "gramma's" kitchen floor. However sad I may feel, I can see in my heart, a vision of Nan looking lovingly up into Bill's face who she had missed so much these past 3 yrs. I hope they are able to find a Heavenly dance floor or golf course, or maybe just a quiet spot to sit together and read, that she so lovingly spoke of. I send each and every one of you, much love and light as you deal with this huge loss. If I know Nan, she'll be right beside you, with her beloved Bill, every step of the way...
