[Nfbf-l] The loss of my beloved Lionel my first Seeing Eye dog

[Sherri]

Carlos, I have been very sad since hearing about Lionel. We got our guide 
dogs at about the same time. I remember going to DC and Lionel was there 
along with my guide dog and they wree great pals! I hope he has now met up 
with my previus two guides, Shadow and Sharna. I'm sure they're having a 
great time. I'm so sorry for your loss.
Please join the National Federation of the Blind of Central Florida group 
and support my team for Lighthouse Central florida. thank you.

through this. All of our guide dogs will have a part of our harts.  Thanks 
again and may you all be blessed.
