Daniel and Jessica D’Eramo-Parry sponsored this day of sanctuary in celebration of love, family and the chimps, really. Jessica shared this lovely message about today:
“Dan and I started dating on this date 14 years ago. We want to celebrate this year by thinking of the chimps. We were planning to visit the sanctuary this past fall, and were so sad to have to cancel our trip. I will be so excited to meet them one day.”
Congratulations, Jessica and Dan! Thanks so very much for celebrating your lives together by sharing that love with the chimpanzees! This is such a lovely thing to do! Thank you for being part of the chimps’ family. J.B. & Diana wish you a happy anniversary!
Here’s a bit of a flashback – Dan took this photo in 2008. As you can see, this was long before Young’s Hill existed and before the original “outdoor area” was made into a greenhouse!

awww…What a wonderful story to share…I have a BIG smile on my face…
It always fills my heart & soul with such tremendous joy recognizing the love people have for animals…I’ve had a Lifelong PASSION for Nature & animals…(with a special interest in Great Apes)
One of my favorite Gandhi quotes: “The greatness of a Nation & its moral progress can be can be judged by the way in which its animals are treated.”
Bless you!!!
