I volunteered many years ago at Quagga Stray Cat Rescue with Maureen. She also assisted us with the adoption of Rebel, one of the semi ferals there. She was an amazing lady and I always admired her. This world needs more people like her. May she rest in peace. - Posted by: Barbara Rideout (Acquaintance) on: Nov 05, 2024
