Riche Churchill September 7, 1931 – October 17, 2019
Howllow Fellow Basset Hound and Riche Churchill Lovers…Well, we all know I was one of those. Our dear friend, mentor, basset rescue advisor, icon, comic, and pillar of our basset hound demographic has passed away. She left us during the evening of October 17th due to complication from heart disease. She had just turned 88. October 17th was also Chaps birthday at the bridge. He would have been 19 years old. I am certain that Chaps was there helping Riche. Not only Chaps but all of the hounds and animals that Riche has helped along the way.
I have so much more to write about Riche and I will over time. I am going to set up a sub-blog in her name to recall much more about her long and often amazing life. Riche was writing her life story when she passed. She had accomplished a huge chunk of it but so more was left untold. I hounded her every chance I could to write it down. I devoured every episode she sent.
I also have a facebook page devoted to Riche. I started it years ago in an effort to get her more subscriptions and it did help a little bit.
More, much more loving Riche later…Cat, Daisy Lynn, (Chaps, what a good boy, and Emma ATB – getting belly rubs from Riche…)
