It is with a heavy heart that I make this post for my good friends, Chris, Lew and Nicky. On Sunday, Nov. 19, 2006 AOE Sel. Ch Carousel Farms Samantha TC PT OFA H&E crossed the Rainbow Bridge. Sammi would have been 10 in two months. "Sammi" was owned by Chris Jolley Kimerer and Lew and Nicky Bunch. Lew and Nicky were also Sammi's breeders. Sammi was Chris' personal dog and spent her last weekend in one of her favorite activities, a road trip with Chris. Sammi made her last public appearance in the Parade of Greats at the National just a month ago. She gaited her way around the ring in the same spectacular fashion she had when Fred Migliore chose her as a Select in 1999. (I think someone said they overheard Fred call her "Pretty" in St. Louis)! Sammi performed equally well in the whelping box and was the proud dam of Julie Degen's PAM Ch Carousel Farms Caisson TD PT TC OAJ, (forgive me Julie for not remembering all those obedience titles which are earned so frequently by you and Cassie that I can't keep up); Lew and Nicky's MW RBIF Ch Carousel Farms Caitlin TD; Joe & Kelly Knight's GL BIF Ch Carousel Farms Samson Hadderway; Sally Hamm's "Kona" TD; Chris' young star, Carousel Farms Jackson Windy Hill and 9 other kids whose "jobs" are to playball and warm the feet of their owners. Sammi was taken unexpectedly by that silent killer, hemangiosarcoma. Julie Degan and I will be working on a memorial ad with proceeds in excess of the ad cost going to health research. You can send checks or contact Julie or I for additional information; Betty Johnson 317 North Drive Marshall, MO 65340 660-886-5942 BJBuie@xxxxxxx Julie Degen 169 Bernard Road Fort Monroe, VA 23651 EJDegen@xxxxxxx Betty Johnson Tintagel ============================================================================ POST is Copyrighted 2006.
