How famous does one have to be that their death is more important - to anyone's loved ones & family, all loses are terrible. Thanks for your comments. My husband was not a member of GSDCA but let me tell you he was definitely involved with dogs etc. It was and is a family thing with Kathaleen heading it up and doing most of the work etc but we have all been there. Ah to hell with it. If a person has to pay a $66.00 year membership so that someone will remember them at a memorial then to me it just isn't worth while. I want to be remembered for what people thought of me or maybe ............all the shit I created.
