In memory of Barbara

August 1, 2020 by Katelyn

This day of sanctuary for the chimpanzees was sponsored by Suzanne Van Ness in memory of her sister, Barbara Beck, who was born on this date 65 years ago.

Suzanne, thank you for your gracious heart in choosing to honor Barbara and her memory in such a compassionate way. You and Barbara have made a difference in the lives of the chimpanzees and we’re so appreciative to you both for that. May comfort and wonderful memories weave themselves around you today.

Missy and Annie:

    These photographs are beautiful! Annie and Missy have such an enduring and endearing bond…as an example, the examination of Annie’s foot by the iron grip of Dr. Missy the Podiatrist.
