We met Ebba because of our mutual love for German Shepherds. We recently moved to Sunflower and Ole and Ebba stopped their car and introduced us to Ringo - such a sweet dear dog. We would often run into them after that as we walked our dogs. We remember Ebba's beautiful smile and love of laughter. We were so sorry, when returning for this winter season to learn of her passing. We continue to see Ole and Ringo walking - it is not the same for them, but they keep each other company and keep on going. Ole said to us "I was very lucky to have Ebba in my life for all of those years. Our life was very good." Indeed it was!

I remember Ebba when she visited my mother and father Gordon and Grace Laugesen on our farm in Burton,Wisconsin. I was in High School and she was a joy to meet. I believe she was related in some way to my father who was from Denmark. I visited with her and her husband some years ago in AZ. She was a very special woman.

It is with great sorrow to hear of Ebba's passing. She was a kind, goodhearted lady who loved her family and friends. She brought sunshine to everyone she met.
