SB's Husband

For those of you who knew her, Shadowboxer's husband John passed away recently, and one of her dogs Jackson was put to sleep earlier too

Here is a message I got from their friend Rita:

Hello Azz and everyone at Dogsey,

It is with a very heavy heart I am letting you all know that last Saturday I found the late shadowboxer's husband John dead.

He was a very good friend of mine and we talked or visited a couple of times a week, I spoke on Tuesday to him and could not contact him early Saturday morning so my husband and I went to check on him and found him dead and his boxer Hannah was with him and he had been dead for several days (Jackson the other boxer had been put to sleep three weeks prior with cancer), I took Hannah home with me and she is slowly starting to settle in and calm done from all the stress involved, (John has no relatives in Tasmania and one cousin in Australia his family are in the UK and Scotland) I now have 6 dogs living with me.

John was very grateful for all the wonderful support that everyone at Dogsey gave him when Shadowboxer passed away, thank you from the bottom of my heart you are truly all such wonderful people.

Sorry to be the bearer of such sad news.....take care,
Rita.
I was just thinking of SB the day over50s went live, and I was going to email John to get him to join. I still miss SB as I am sure many of you do.

My thoughts are with their family and friends.

Oh no, what a sad loss, at least he is now with his dear wife...

My thoughts go to their family , if they read this..

Agree with you Azz, SB is terribly missed here, she was the voice of reason on here.

Such sad news, I'm very sorry to read this.

What an angel Rita is to take in and care for Hannah.

RIP John, at last reunited with SB.
