Not sure what to say?

I first met Fay as a young student at Lincoln High school in Des Moines. My last meeting was a birthday party for my Mother's 85th in 2005. It was Echo Valley CC in Des Moines. We talked for several minutes about our past and current lives. Fay was a person who accomplished so much in her life of giving and caring about others.

I knew Fay as a member of the Des Moines Obedience Training Club. One of the last times I saw her was at Dog Jog when it was still held by the Blank Park Zoo. They had a contest for the smallest dog, and she beat my miniature dachshund puppy with a very tiny Yorkie. Fay was very fond of her Yorkies.

Thanks for inspiring me to also go into the field of nursing.Likewise, it has also been very rewarding. Bonnie Jones-Biondi "66"

Thanks for your nursing skills and comming to my mother's birthday parties.
You are missed.
