Dear Susan and family,
I dont know if you remember me but I got a wonderful dog "Tommy" from you in 1999. I am so sorry for your loss and I want you to know that Tommy is still going strong and I thank you for such wonderful breeding. I saw the news about Clarence on the Cairn Terrier list. I just lost one of my Cairns but now I have a new little girl. I lost my husband 7 years ago and my little Cairns helped me so much through my own saddness.
Fondly, Randi Kemper, Tucson, Arizona
