Our many thanks to Janet Dibler for sponsoring this day of sanctuary for the chimpanzees and bovines in memory of her beloved cousin, Carol. This is also how Janet wishes to celebrate her own birthday today which is so lovely.
“In memory of my sweet cousin, Carol Holcomb Millard, who passed away on October 8, 2023 to be with our Lord. She lived her life to the fullest. Carol loved her family and friends deeply and as big as the sky. We both shared our love for animals and in fact she volunteered at the Loggerhead Turtle Rehab Center in Florida and loved it! I introduced her to videos and photos of the residents at CSNW. For her it was love & laughter at first sight! I love you Carol, I’ll see you again.”
Janet, we’re sending you and all Carol’s family and friends our heartfelt condolences for your loss. Thank you so much for sharing your love of the chimpanzees with Carol. We’re so touched that they are part of the wonderful memories you have with her and appreciate your choosing not only to honor her in this way, but to celebrate your own special day by doing so. We’ll be thinking of you both today. <3

Janet, condolences for your loss and Happy Birthday to you, even though they are conflicting wishes.
Life can be so full of emotional pain. That’s why it’s so important to enjoy the happy days.

ps. I can walk to the the Loggerhead Marine Life Center. I love that place! I’ve taken many stranded baby turtles there
I would bet Paulette, that you met Carol. She and others did night watch on the beach making sure all was well. she was definitely devoted like you! Thank you for your kind words.?
Thank you, Janet, for including our favorite chimpy people in both your celebration of your life, and your memorial to your cousin’s.
