A Radiant Star has joined our Galaxy tonight. Laylo Liza Jane (her racing name) earned her golden wings this afternoon. Our hearts are aching but I find solace knowing that Liza is with her brother Gable Gnaw. When we went to the kennel just to look at the greyhounds, Bill let out a few of the pups and Gable adopted us, as he just leaned into us and would not leave our side, then I looked over and saw this beautiful brindle just laying there very quietly with such sad eyes - she stole my heart. We had no intention of bringing home a greyhound at this time, but needless to say, we ended up bringing home two!!! Liza was a very reserved and independent little girl, very quiet, never barked at anything, walked with me twice a day since she arrived at our home (February 19th, 2010.), excellent with other dogs and enjoyed people fussing over her. When she was in the leash free area, she just wandered around for a bit THEN she would just take off and run like the wind - such a beautiful sight to behold. Liza became my "velcro strap" she always had to know where I was at all times. Liza, you took a big piece of my heart with you this afternoon and I know that you left me all of yours. I love you Liza Jane with everything that I have. Rest in peace my sweet girl as there is no more pain.

I'm so so sorry for your loss of Liza. You have always posted with great love about Gable and Liza. They are together and will always be together in your hearts. Such a sweet and beautiful brindle girl. I've always loved your avatar of her spawled over the stairs. You are such a greyt mom to your pups and are always looking out for those up for adoption.
Take care in this very hard time. Thank god Liza gave you that very sad look at the kennel that day and pulled your heart strings.
Run free with your brother Liza

I am so, so sorry to learn of the passing of your girl Liza Jane. You have had to deal with so much loss in such a short time. My heart goes out to you.
From your posts it was evident how much you loved Liza and Gable and that they had the perfect retirement with you. We are blessed to share our lives with these souls but they leave us all too soon. Please take care of yourself in the coming days and months.
Liza and Gable are now together again running like the wind.

My heart sank to see this post...I am so very sorry. The love of your pups, both Liza Jane and Gable, glowed in each and every of your posts. Their's was a wonderful retirement because of you. The heartache and emptiness I'm sure is overwhelming, but take care and remember, as you have so lovingly expressed in your support of others,... your two beautiful angels will shine brightly in the heavens and remain with you in love and in spirit forever.
Godspeed sweet Liza Jane.

Your girlie was always a joy to have around, I will miss her sweet ways. I remember when she first came to the kennel, how she just couldn't find the right home, and now we know she was waiting for you. You gave both of them such a loving home, I know she left feeling loved.
Run free sweet girl, with all of our angels at the bridge.

Sandy, I've had so much trouble finding the words for your loss of sweet Liza. Over the preceding months as you and I kept in touch about Liza's health, I came to know and love her as if she were one of my own. You were such a greyt Mom to Liza (and Gable) and they were so fortunate to have found a family so full of love, compassion and caring during their retirement. I know how badly your heart is hurting and how much you are missing your girl .... her journey is now complete as she and Gable are together once again, two beautiful stars shining down on their family. Both Liza and Gable's spirit will be with you forever.
Godspeed sweet Liza Jane .....

Sandy, I too was honored to spend time with both of your pups. We have all lost a lot and it never get's easier. The only thing we have is the love and devotion that our babies gave to us. Hold onto that and cherish it. It will help you get thru this. You have many friends who have been thru these very difficult times and we are always there for you. Hugs... M

I, like many others have stated, am so sorry to see this post. I have always enjoyed your posts about Gable and Liza and was saddened to hear of Gable's passing and now to see that Liza has joined him so quickly is just so heart-wrenching. I am so very sorry for your loss. They are never with us long enough and yet they never truly leave us either. Take care of yourself, I am sure Gable and Liza are both watching over you.

Sandy, I am so saddened to read of the passing of your dear, sweet Liza Jane. We get to know each other through the forum, facebook and GRA events - and with that we become family. When one of us suffers a loss we really do all feel the pain. The love you had for both Gable & Liza Jane was so evident. Liza Jane helped you during the mourning of Gable but it was now time to join him. They both shine down on you from heaven now - encouraging you to let the wonderful memories overcome the sadness. Hugs to you both?
Carla
