We are very sorry to hear the passing of John's cousin Debbie! We will pray for the family and offer our condolences.
Our fondest memory of Debbie is a shared 4th of July at Aunt Vi's home when all the grand kids and our Andrew were shooting off fireworks. One landed on Debbie and she jumped out of her lawn chair and ran a few feet. Everyone was laughing and having a great time.

I am so sorry to hear about Bette. I was just thinking of all of you guys a couple of weeks ago. Wondering how everyone was and if you still lived in Alabama. I have so many fond memories of Bette and the Family! I helped Bette with her Shelties and went to Dog Shows with her. We even got Snowbound on our way home from one dog show. We ended up spending the night with one of her friends. I Babysat Greg and Troy anytime they needed a sitter. Greg and Troy were like my own kids. They were so we'll behaved for me. I would Love to hear from all of you. I'm sending my heart felt sympathies for all of you! I Loved her so much!! I bought all my Shelties from her. Love and Miss you all😘💕 God Bless you all! Love and Prayers,

Bette, I have so many happy memories of the great times I had with you and your family when I visited from England and you came over to stay with me to visit Crufts Dog Show.
Seeing for myself your kennel of lovely Schipperkes (I brought one home and she's still with me).
Running the Boarding Kennel, looking out for mum, Miss Vi, home schooling Gabriel the eldest of your grandsons. I was full of admiration for you and so proud to become your friend.
Yes, Bette, I shall remember you with great affection.
RIP Dear Friend xxx

John - so sorry to hear of Bette’s passing. Hugs and prayers to you and the boys. I remember the day you guys were married, we( Mom, Dad and sisters) traveled to Alabama for the wedding and it was hot and we were all really thirsty and was offered ice tea, and unbeknownst to us it was sweetened and tasted awful to us !

John,
We were so sorry to hear about Bette.
She was a wonderful lady with a great sense of humour, we always enjoyed visiting with her when we boarded Bear & Shadow, and when we would bring Mindy & Trace to visit. We will forever be grateful for her trusting Mindy & Trace to our care, we were thrilled to have two of her beautiful "Shalako Schipperkes". I've heard numerous people in the Schipperke world tell of how she mentored, helped & encouraged them, she was highly respected. She left a legacy you can all be proud of and will be missed by all who were lucky enough to know her.
You & the boys are in our thoughts & prayers.
