Presley Adami Hasegawa 2006-2023
On December 30, we said goodbye to Presley.
Born in an Ohio barn, she was given to us by our friend Bonnie who knew we needed her before we did. We are so lucky that we got to spend the past 17 years with her and we are grateful for every moment, even though it feels like it wasn’t enough. Presley’s favorite activities included managing Naoto, napping in her too small box in my studio, snoozing on the wine cabinet, chasing sunbeams, tapping our arms (or eyes) when she wanted pets, dining on mackerel and salmon, drinking from my water glass, sunbathing on the deck, judging my book club books, howling at 3am to make sure we were home, hanging out with the Holiday Gang, and intimidating guests. We’re so happy we got to spend the holidays with her and that she got one last season dozing under the Christmas tree.
2024 has been lonely without my little grey shadow.
(I know most of you probably saw this announcement on Instagram, but I wanted to add it to the (neglected) blog for my own sake, so I’m back-dating this post so it can live here in my own world and not just on Instagram.)
