Jerry, Melanie, Marlin, we were saddened to hear of Tilly’s passing, she was in such good spirits when we last saw her in September. We will forever remember Tilly. Our first meeting was back in 1988, she was teaching conformation classes and we were there with our Great Dane “Apollo” … It was Tilly who got us into the “dog show” world, she inspired us tremendously … will never forget her remarks to Jo-Anne on our first show “make sure your wear a good bra” …
Will always remember her “Cairns” especially Misty who loved to play with our Great Danes
May she Rest In Peace, an Angel in Heaven …
