Dear Linda,
Thank you for your generous donation of $30.00 in memory of Gerald (Sid) Spader. It is
greatly appreciated.
With the economy being what it is today we appreciate more than ever the generosity
of donors like you. We are grateful that you have found Battle Mountain Humane
Society´s cause a worthy one. From the many abused and unwanted animals of Fall
River & Custer County and the surrounding area whose lives were made better because
of you, we share their gratitude and love. Your donation will be used for food.
Thank you again for your compassion and for your confidence in our work.
Sincerely,

Connie Geiser
Board Member
