August 3, 2012: We want to express our deep gratitude for the $25,000 bequest made by Judge Workman to Atlanta Pet Rescue & Adoption. This gift will greatly help us to continue our work in rescuing homeless pets, providing them with medical and social care to make them adoptable and to find them appropriate, responsible new owners who will care for them for the rest of their lives.
With great sadness, we share that Rev. Paul Gamber passed away. Paul and his wife Lisa adopted Zola, who was with APRA for a several months and fostered by Gigi G. until Paul and Lisa came along. It was a match made in heaven; when they picked Zola up at Gigi’s house, Zola never looked back. She knew that she was going to the perfect home. She may have also known, on another level, that she had a job to do, that her time with Paul would be limited. They had a fabulous relationship and he loved her as much as we could ever hope that someone could love their companion. Gigi said, “Paul was a very gentle soul and he will be greatly missed. I am so-o-o-o grateful that we crossed paths at Atlanta Pet Rescue. Please keep Lisa and Zola in your thoughts!”- Those we hold in our arms for a little while we hold in our hearts forever. My thoughts and prayers are with you and your family during this difficult time, and for the days and months to come. With Deepest Sympathy, LeAnne (Becky too)
