All I Want To Do Is Howl...

[hantsbear]

I'd just put the picture of Russ's grave up onto my journal and found that beastbriskett is dead.  As the tears run down my cheeks, I remember the two occasions I met Greg.  I'd wanted to meet him for a while, having had favorable reports from Russ's visit.  I met a sweet guy and we went to see the koalas at San Francisco zoo.  And did the sightseeing thing.  Basically, spent a pleasant day finishing off with burgers with Hoody.  I saw him again last November.  Obviously, since then he'd been sick, but I was still made more than welcome chez Beast and Hoody. 
And now he's gone.  Physically, at least.  Hopefully, his web presence will keep him near to us all.

Greg, I know there was an ocean between us but I'm still going to miss you.
Hoody, If ever you're over this side of the pond, please look me up.  Steve and I woudl love to host you.

So long, Greg.  Happy trails... xxxx

Beast was a very positive man.

In spirit form, he wants us all to be happy tonite. But it ain't all that easy.

No One is truely gone my beloved friend until all those who knew them have passed over, although I never met them, I feel your pain, for I have lost in my life.
They dance and rejoice in the Veil, waiting for that time when we can all be together once more.

Just yesterday, I drove off in a hurry to meet up with a local friend who was not dealing well with the very recent loss a good friend of his... (I and two other friends hung out with him though and I continued to through the rest of the night with him and his family, he's doing better now)...

Now Greg is gone... and another friend that I miss will be five years gone on the 8th...

Sux.

But, I know that I am better for knowing him, I only regret that he's gone and I didn't get to see him the last couple of times that I was in the city...

Luckily, I did get to hang with Greg and Mark when George and I saw them not long after you guys did...
I've been wanting to call him the last few days and weeks... I wish I had. He is missed.

HUGS
