It is with great sadness I pass on the news that Sue Jackson passed away from brain cancer on Aug. 12. Her blog Edsel The Pooch was one of the first ones we read. Sue came west to visit us several years ago. We got along wonderfully, like old best, friends. It will be a visit I will always cherish. It must have taken a lot of nerve for her to come out like she did, not knowing us or what to expect. Sue, I think of you often, I have missed emailing and reading your blog. The blogosphere has lost a wonderful lady.

Edsel the Pooch was also one of the first blogs we read as well.
We never had the honor of meeting Sue, but we did exchange emails.
She was indeed a wonderful lady, a legend of the CB, and our loss is so great.

Our hearts are broken tonight
We're so sorry to hear this sad, sad news. Please give our love to her husband and our purrs to Casey and Edsel. We've missed her blogging.
I keep saying dammit over and over, but really, I wanna say Phck. A lot. And I wanna hug Edsel right now...
This is very sad news. I used to read Edsel the Pooch quite often. Hugs to her family, two-legs and four-legs alike.
oh my goodness how very sad indeed...this has been such a sorrowful week!
We're not familiar with the blog, but we are terribly, terribly sorry for Sue's passing. We're sending our purrs to all those who knew and loved her and wishing everyone universal Peace and Blessings.
We are sorry to learn of Sue's passing. This must be very hard on her family. Hugs to them and to you, her friend.
I am so sorry to hear this. I used to read Edsel's blog, and I remember when Sue came to visit you. Such sad, sad news.

We are so sorry to hear this sad news, too!! Edsel The Pooch was one of the first blogs we read when we joined the CB, too!! Many hugs and purss to the family!!
Your TX furiends,
our hearts are broken. thank you for letting us know - we prayed for MomSue every night when we went to sleep.
Julie says..I had a hard time putting my thoughts to words over this. My best friend just lost her brother the exact, same way. I'm numb and feel helpless for families in pain and friends grieving. I'm just hoping when I look around me and there's happiness to share, I'll be more appreciative. Life is too precious for it to end so unfairly. For God's sake..
Very sad news. I have not seen Sue before, nor Edsel the Pooch, but it is sad when there is a good animal loving human who goes over the bridge.
We're sorry to say we didn't know Susan or her woofie Edsel, but it makes us very sad when we hear news like this. We send comforting purrs and headbutts to her family.
Very sad news. Purrs to her family.
Edsel was one of our very first blogging friends, and also was one of Oreo's posse members. We are deeply saddened by this news. Please pass on our condolescences to the family. We too wish we could just hug everyone. Thanks for letting us all know!
We are leaky eyed about this and so sad. Derby remembers mum taking him outside and facing east to purr for Edsel's mom when she first got sick.
Purrs and hugs from all of us to the family and extend friends.

We were very sorry to hear about Sue's passing.
We read on the cat blogosphere that it is Precious Flower's Gotcha Day and we wanted to wish her a happy one.
We are very sad to hear of Sue's passing. I remember when Magoo and Edsel had a bet over the Detroit Red Wings and the Edmonton Oilers.
She will be missed. OUr thoughts and purrayers are with her family at this time.
We're very sad to hear of Sue's passing. Big prayers and purs of comfort to you and all who loved her.
We heard it was Precious Flower's Gotcha Day. We hope you had a very nice day.
I"m so sorry to hear this Toni.
*hugs*

Happy Gotcha Day though, Precious Flower.
purrrrrrrrrrrrrs,
your bud Pepi and the rest of the Hotties
We did not know Sue or Edsel, but we share in the loss of anny CB Bein or furry. Our purrs of comfort to Edsel, Casey, and Steven...
Oh, what sad news. We remember Edsel well and missed him when Sue stopped blogging.
We heard it is Mistrie Rose, Mittens and Patches' Gotcha Day. We sure hope you have a pawsome day! :)
We were just thinking about little Miracle and then we saw that it's a big Gotcha Day in the Big Piney Woods. Wishing you all the best on your big day!
Thank you so much for your kind words about Emma. I am so very lucky to have so many great friends.
I am so sorry to hear about the loss of Emma. My purrs and thoughts go out to you as I know this is such a difficult time for you. The cancer is bad stuff and takes way too many each year. In the purrfect world there would be a cure and this would be a thing of the past. We can only hope and pray that this will some day be the case.
Happy Birthday my buddy Precious Flower! I'll come over and we can play THoE and eat treats.
Purrrrrrrrrs,
your bud Pepi (and the rest of the Hotties)
Happy birthday, Precious Flower. We hope you have a great day and year.
Happy Purrrthday, Precious Flower. We hope you and the rest of the famibly is doing well.
Happy Birthday Precious Flower!
Have a happy and healthy 2012.
I am deeply sorry for the loss of your friend Sue and having been through that with a friend of mine, I feel the pain.
Thank you for coming to see me when my little one passed to the Rainbow Bridge last month. That meant the world.
