font-family:"Courier New"'>By now most of you have read the post from Melissa
about Gredie going to the Bridge. I am sure there are folks in the drool family
who don’t know who Melissa and Alex are—well they are the main
folks the ones that keep the Daily Drool Digest running not only with their
computer savvy but with their own money. This wonderful educational site filled
with laughter, tears, sometimes fights, and help for members and rescues alike
wouldn’t be with out the Jokela’s. Yes we moderators are the ones
every one knows because we are the ones who get into trouble, the ones that
tell you no, so folks know who we are. Melissa and Alex not so much. They are a
wonderful couple and if it wasn’t for them stepping up to the drool when
our Drool mom Nancy gave us the digest there would be no formant for rescues to
talk about their waddles, no place for folks to laugh, cry and get support, most
important for basset hounds to be saved in so many ways. Why am I telling you
all this , well I know things are tight with the cookie money, so many losses,
so many waddles, but remember if it wasn’t for Melissa and Alex we would
have no place to tell about our needs. They have never asked for funds to keep
the Drool Digest going. I think it would be nice if we ALL stepped up to the
drool plate and in memory of Miss Gertrude Steinbeck Jokela, put one dollar yep
just $1.00 (more if you want)in an envelope and post if off to Melissa and
Alex. 4 quarters taped to a paper works also, if we all send in $1.00 it would
keep the digest running for years. This is makes it doable for most every one.
Just 1 dollar in memory of Gerdie. <o:p></o:p></span></font></p>
