Happy Birthday, Willy B!

March 1, 2020 by Katelyn

This special day of sanctuary was sponsored by Willy B’s pals, Mrs. Souers’ third grade class!

“Mrs. Souers’ third grade class recently became pals with Willy B. The students noticed that March 1st is Willy B’s birthday so they wanted to help him celebrate!”

Willy B turns 30 today!! As we celebrate Willy B’s first birthday here at his new sanctuary home, we have so much to be grateful for. Not least of all his many wonderful friends. Heartfelt thanks, Mrs. Souers’ and your amazing third grade class, for loving Willy B and helping us celebrate how very special he is and how very grateful and honored we are to have him as part of our chimp family. We love this big, handsome guy and his quirky self more with each passing day. And thank you to each of you for being a part of Willy B’s family and for making a lasting difference in his life.

Happy Birthday, Willy B!!

    Happy Birthday Willy B
    Well done Third Grade and Mrs Souers. I hope those students watch all the chimps eating their greens, that’s why they are so strong and handsome! I bet you write some lovely stories about Willy B.

    I’m loving the picture of Willy B’s reflection in the mirror and the one where his lips are poking through the mesh!

    Willy B is a charmer. Love those pictures!! Happy Birthday to Willy B. We hope he is enjoying his special day and may each day be filled with friends and happy times for all of the Chimps. What a thoughtful way for Mrs. Souer’s class to celebrate Willy B’s birthday.

    Awwwwww Happy Birthday Willy B! Looks like you had a blast! Mrs. Souers is my awesome sister (and amazing teacher) Therese. She has been a supporter of CSNW for years, including donating in my name to be Foxie’s pal. We also had the pleasure of visiting the sanctuary twice and it was something that I will always treasure! Thank you all for everything you do for these amazing animals!
