I am a grandmother of three teenagers. We spend time together at the beach, ballpark, and many other places. My house currently is ruled by a 8 lb. Shorkie, who does not know she is not at Airedale. Rosie goes everywhere I go.

I am proud to say I have been a member of the Airedale Quilting Bee from its inception, and have participated in most of the quilts. I have been well loved, entertained and protected for 40+ years by beloved Airedales. It is my pleasure to participate in this group to raise money for rescue.

My square this year in made in honor of my Granddale Rufus who succumbed to Large Cell Lymphoma this year. He came to work each day with my son, and is missed by all. Rufus was goofy, loyal and a good friend to all of the customers who sometimes just came by to visit and brought their children by to see him. Stay tuned, there will be another Airedale at work, can’t break that tradition.
