3 years ago today, our sweet Grampa Norton ran off to the Bridge to be with his brother Ralphie (the one who came before). Norton is on the right in the pikshur above, taken about a day after the mom and the dad lady person finded him and Trixie on the side of the road in New Haven, CT. He and Trixie lived wif them for 18 years. We love our grampa Norton very much. He sent Billy to us so that we would always haf some gingersnap in our lives.
Grampa Norton, we will always love you and miss you and someday we will see you again at the Bridge.

You must miss him so much! He was lucky that your mom and dad found him and that's why he sent Billy to you all. I'm purring for you today.

Thinking of you guys today!
Three years? It does not seem possible. I remember G.Norton's passing.
It's good that they finded Billy for you and sent him to live with you.
Is it three years already? We remember Grampa Norton and also Trixie at the Rainbow Gingers page. He was a great character.
PS There is extra gingerness at my blog today...not just me!
We never forget the sweet memories of how they touched our hearts...Hugs
My favorite boycat, Bo, passed away 4 years ago this coming June and I still miss his presence dearly. But I have Brighton, who is so like Bo that it's like you and having some "gingersnap" in your house still :-)
You can see Brighton and Bo on my blog post here:

It is good and proper to remember those who came and went before.
Wow...it doesn't seem like 3 years... It's way cool that he sent Billy. All that PLAYPLAYPLAY keeps ya on your toes ;)
We read the beautiful tributes to Norton and Trixie through tears. What treasures they were.
We remember because Norton left in the time of year so many of our kids have left. It's a lovely tribute. Purrs.
It's natural that you miss Grampa Norton so much. It sounds like he lived a full life full of love with your family.It was sweet that he sent Billy to you all.

Oh my goodness! That is a very cute picture of Grandpa Norton and his brother. It's a good thing we have our memories.
It's hard to believe that it's three years already. I remember when Grampa Norton went to the Bridge. I am sure that he remembers and misses you, too, but you will see him again some day.
What an adorable picture! We are sure that your Granmpa Norton is at the Bridge, playing and waiting! Mommy says that he sent Billy to you! Billy looks just like him!
