February 20, 2018 at 9:40 pmI am so very sorry for your loss. I will always remember Ann for her love of her high school sweetheart, her children, their spouses and her grandchildren and her critters, especially her Elphaba. She was a true friend to Malinois Rescue.

February 20, 2018 at 11:50 pmI’m so sorry for your loss, Dave. While we haven’t kept in touch over the years, I thought of you and Ann often. Ann and I were in kindergarten together and the two of you were one of the best couples I knew in high school. I can’t begin to imagine the pain and loss you and your family are feeling. You and your family are in my thoughts and prayers.
