Countless friends at countless obedience classes who pitched in advice and
muscle

Special thanks and appreciation is saved for Alyssa Hernandez and her husband, Jim. Together, they are Brilliant Blue Designs, creators of this site.

I was just too close to do a storyboard or concept for IKE�s memorial. Even six months after his death, I couldn�t make my brain work, yet I wanted to pay honor to my once-in-a-lifetime partner. With style and grace, intelligence and compassion, Alyssa took over and exceeded every expectation I had.
|
|
IKE is smiling, Alyssa, and no greater compliment can be paid to you.
IKE�s Mom,
Shirl
