A hole in the world – Rest in peace, my friend Peggie

This is for those of you who have not seen her online for quite a line.

Peggie Duggan passed away suddenly May 15. Many of you knew her as the brilliant and compassionate blogger at Chasing Rabbitholes.

Always fearless, always loving, always with a kind word. My heart is broken and I can only sit and weep at the light which has left our world. She leaves behind her rescued greyhound, Ella, her cat Elby, and friends who deeply love her and will miss her sweetness. The death of her brother Sean last year was so hard for her and I can only say that now the two are together and her heart is satisfied at being with those who have gone before.

Sleep well my friend. Rest. It was a hard battle for you. I love you.

Author: Let's CUT the Crap!

I'm getting a little LONG in the tooth and have things to say about---ouch---AGEing. I believe it's certainly a state of mind but sometimes it's nice to hear that you're NORMAL. I enjoy reading by the truckload. I'm a grandma but I don't feel OLD although I'm not so young anymore. My plan is to stick it out as long as I can on this lovely planet and only will leave it kicking and screaming!

  2. I’m deeply sad to lose this beautiful woman. I connected with her when I became friends with Bill Hamilton. They were very close as well. I shall miss her a lot, a wonderfully compassionate soul. RIP dear friend.

    • I’d known her for a few years. Four of us all knew each other and talked on the phone a lot because we lived in different areas of the U.S. and Canada (me). ❤ ❤

      • That is what someone else mentioned. That she had a real life connection with her. That makes it even harder.

      • Yes. I’m sitting on a cushion she ordered for me at Amazon.com because they didn’t have it at Amazon.ca. She wasn’t feeling well, but got herself to the post office to mail to me after Amazon delivered to her. Yes, I paid her but she recommended the cushion and offered to do the legwork. Such a huge and generous heart.<3 ❤ ❤
