In memory of Linda

April 4, 2021 by Katelyn

Many thanks to you and your gracious heart, Lisa Stuverud, for sponsoring this hopeful day of spring and sanctuary in memory of Linda Vizzare. We so appreciate you and your long-time friendship and support and hope today and beloved memories bring your heart comfort and ease, joy and inspiration. We’re honored to celebrate Linda with you. And from our hearts, thank you for all you help make possible for the chimpanzees and bovines!

Lisa shared this message:

“I am sponsoring April 4th in memory of my sister-in-law, Linda Vizzare because we always shared this day. I miss her terribly and often wish to be able to talk to her especially this last year…WOW…it has seemed unbelievable in everything that has transpired. I often have no words but like my dear sister-in-law you find something positive like Burrito doing his happy dance which was her favorite. You focus on what feeds a passion in your heart and life and you find purpose and joy amongst the chaos. For me that is everyone at CSNW and I do mean everyone! I am so grateful to have all of you to share this day with.”

Best friends, Annie and Missy:

Honey B and Mave:

Betsy and her son, Nutmeg:

Burrito and Jody:

Meredith and her mama, Honey:

Easter celebration preparations are under way so be sure to tune in later today to see what the chimpanzees think of the Easter Bunny’s visit! 🙂

    This is a wonderful selection of pictures. Nice to have the 2 photos of the cows also. Some of the chimp pictures are so close to human friendships! Thank you!
