Marilyn, I was very sad to hear about John and am sorry I wasn't at the funeral, mostly because I didn't find out until Yesterday after the fact. I'm sorry I wasn't there to try and comfort you during this very hard time, I only wish I knew about your burden. Keep up the beautiful work you do for animals and I love you very much and always loved John. ROsanne Moran Herrinton
