I  know the song very well. Chapin was a big favorite in our home. I am so
touched by  what you just shared. had it not been for mike I may not have
gotten my dog. I love the  full circle   of things from princess to sarge. I
salute you both. mike will be missed. Any idea of where he will be
retiring:?

Albert,
    It makes my pup, Sarge,  even more special to me, as he was named in 
honor of Mike Sergeant! There is a song by Harry Chapinthat says, "all my 
life's a circle!" Mike sergeant trained my first guide dog, Princess, while 
he was the Executive Director/director of Training/Groundskeeper/and most 
other jobs that needed to be done at Southeastern. Now he is retiring and I 
have a dog named after him!

Sadly!
Marion
