I am so sorry not to have better news. But Deepwalker passed away yesterday. He had a heart attack On Saturday & never recovered.
*Hugs everybody*

There is some good of all this however. He was on the road to recovery. And now, he is no longer suffering.

I think I know who to dedicate my story, Journal to.

May he Rest in Peace

to a caring and watchful protector, our love, thoughts & prayers are with you & your family.
We will miss you our gentle giant.
Your CATs family in Final Bow & the Junkyard Jellicles

This is what I put on his facebook page from us. I hope no one minds

I'm sure Deepwalker is watching over us from the Heavyside lair waiting to reborn to a different Jellicle life. If anyone deserves to, it is him.

The heart of a protector is a large and caring one. Sometimes, when they are unable to fill their heart any longer, their vessels pass on. In hopes of not only protecting, but guiding their past charges.

Deepwalker will be greatly missed, but do not think he will not be on here, over our shoulders, watching over our beloved characters.

For the meantime old friend, take a break, only observe for now. You deserve to have the rest. We will all miss you.

"When does someone die ?"

This question is rather important, because I contemplate on it constantly.

"When does someone die ?"

When they are stricken with a deadly illness ?

No.

When they have been shoot or stabbed ?

No!

"A person dies, when they are forgotten."

As long as we remember Deepwalker in our hearts and minds, he will never be dead. He'd want us to go on. He's got our back. More then we know.

Rest in Peace Deepwalker. You truly deserve this rest. Wait for us at the Gates. And if you can come back. We'll leave the light on for you!

[Moonstruck]

Rest in Peace Deepwalker.

You'll be remembered, and your memory loved.

I am deeply disturbed and saddened by this news, but I am also glad he is no longer suffering. My prayers and thoughts are with Deep's family now. And everyone's arms are always open for comfort on here.

That is also a lovely sentiment Autumn. And I agree, a person truly doesn't die until they are forgotten. Deep will never be forgotten on here. <3

I wish that I could say that I was surprised, but really I wasn't
though it does remind me of part of a song by Kitty Wells.....
[ From: www.metrolyrics.com/just-beyond-the-moon-lyrics-kitty-wells.html
But now, as I am going, please don't leave me I'll walk just beyond the moon, then, I'll stop and wait for you
You can look up every night, and you'll see me, light the light Where I'll watch for you to join me, someday, soon We'll go looking through the stars, for the heaven that is ours And I know, we'll find it soon, somewhere, just beyond the moon
I'll walk just beyond the moon, then, I'll stop and wait for you I'll just sit there by a star and I'll watch you from afar Till I see you walking toward me, someday, soon Then, together, hand in hand, we'll find our promised land
KITTY WELLS - JUST BEYOND THE MOON LYRICS
our friend, our Buddy is waiting and watching.
enjoy the peace you've earned dear friend.

This was sent to me from Shaunnon, the gentleman who left us the notice on Junkyard.

He told me about his characters and how much he enjoyed playing them. Please, just spread the word. This man had more influence over my life than anyone else. He was a great man.

His sister also sent me this:

Thank you Amy, it means so much to us to know Richard had so many caring friends. The memorial service will be this Saturday, Aug 3rd, at Aragon Baptist church, there will be a visitation from 6-7 then the service from 7-8 and it is open to everyone that would wish to join us there

Deep, lived near Atlanta, Georgia.
I did let her know that we are a geographically varied group, but that we would be thinking of them. If anyone would like to do something in his name, please donate to your favorite animal charity for him.

I received a message from Deep's sister, she was wondering if we could take the plushie I made for him & send it n an around the world trip, with each of us adding little mementos or whatever & it finally ending with his family.
The only problem I have with this idea are the number of us who would prefer to remain anonymous. So, here's what I propose, if anyone would like to have the plushie sent to them let me know & I'll coordinate it's journey & for those who wish to contribute, but not have the plushie sent to them, pm me & I'll give you my address, you can send me what you'd like added & once the plushie is done journeying, I will put everything together & mail it to his family.
I was thinking some lovely postcards would be good or artwork, or whatever.
Let me know OK?
