Guest boondog Posted December 5, 2008 Share Posted December 5, 2008 I was so sad to see Grandpa's name, but then I read your tribute. I didn't know his story. It made me smile through tears to read about his life and how he changed yours. I hope you can both find peace knowing what incredible things he did to advance greyhound adoption. Godspeed, Grandpa.
