Iris will be missed by more than just the neighborhood of friends here. The red fox and the groundhog visiting their backyard found acceptance, a safe haven and kind hearted people as part of their daily world. We all need more of that. What a sadness for us all. Great sympathy to the family, Hylton Park.
