A wonderful animal rescuer has been lost!

An Oncologist here in the Nashville area was know for his brilliance and his ability to comfort and fight for his cancer patients. He was greatly loved for this work. But the other side of him was his absolute devotion to animal rescue. He will be so missed in the oncology world, but more so in animal rescue. He fostered so many dogs in his house. His wife vows to continue and may are donating to rescue to his honor. He was hit on his way home by a 20 yo drunk driver. My spouse worked with him and had the greatest of respect for him. A terrible loss to the world.

  • Oh, what an absolutely tragic and heartbreaking loss! Hopefully, the good doctor has inspired others to carry on his work in his manner and spirit. There is just no understanding how these things can happen.
  • Such a tragic story, you wonder if people will ever get the message that drinking and driving is lethal. I know, probably never.

    Sorry for your loss Barb and the untold loss to the animal world.
