Marian, 
Since you mentioned it, what was said about your motives? Curious.

Dan,
    Thank you very much for the kudos! I often ask people to roll up
their 
sleeves and get involved. It was a very hard road, enduring lots of
personal 
attacks and misconceptions about our motives, but we got it done.
Service 
animal users in the county are better off for the effort and we had a
great 
deal of support. When I urge others to take this issue to the media and
file 
legal complaints, I know the challenges that will be faced, as I have
"been 
there; done that"! I will never ask anyone to do something I would not
be 
willing to do myself! hang in there! I'm standing on the barricades with

you!

Fraternally yours,
Marion Gwizdala, President
