So sorry for the pain you are going through Sherry. You been together
for a very long time. There is no easy way to go through the parting.
You will find a way to go on quilting - perhaps a special quilt in his
honour will get you started again after a little while.

Just this side of heaven is a place called Rainbow Bridge.
When an animal dies that has been especially close to someone here,
that pet goes to Rainbow Bridge.
There are meadows and hills for all of our special friends
so they can run and play together.
There is plenty of food, water and sunshine,
and our friends are warm and comfortable.
All the animals that had been ill and old are restored to health and vigor.
Those who were hurt or maimed are made whole and strong again,
just as we remember them in our dreams of days and times gone by.
The animals are happy and content, except for one small thing;
they each miss someone very special to them, who had to be left behind.
They all run and play together, but the day comes when one suddenly stops
and looks into the distance.
Her bright eyes are intent.
Her eager body quivers.
Suddenly she begins to run from the group,
flying over the green grass,
her legs carrying her faster and faster.
You have been spotted, and when you and your special friend finally meet,
you cling together in joyous reunion, never to be parted again.
The happy kisses rain upon your face; your hands again caress the beloved
head,
and you look once more into the trusting eyes of your pet,
so long gone from your life but never absent from your heart.
Then you cross Rainbow Bridge together....

I'm so sorry. He was a wonderful companion, and will leave a big gap.
Try making a memory quilt of him. It might ease the pain ans help close
the gap.
