She wanted me to let you know how much she loved our breed and the people who loved their dogs. Mom bred over 17 American Champions in her wonderful career not to mention her talent as an artist. I can't tell you the loss we feel, it is close to unbearable. Have always had a great respect for your Mom, Syd. Spoke with her a few times in the passed few years and she was always so forthcoming with information and being helpful. For those on the list, Syd bred the wonderful Pentium, Sel Jamiroquai's sire. She will be sorely missed Jim and Edie. Thoughts and prayers are with you......... Molly ============================================================================ POST is Copyrighted 2010.
