In memory of Ned and Noreen

July 7, 2022 by Katelyn -

Share with your friends!

Long-time supporter of the sanctuary, Joan O’Flaherty, has been sponsoring this day for many years in memory of her parents, Ned and Noreen O’Flaherty. We’re always so touched that you allow the chimpanzees and cattle, and all of us, to share in your parents’ lovely legacy in this way, Joan, thank you!

“This is my parents’ anniversary. They both loved animals and supported conservation. Thank you for giving a wonderful home to the chimpanzees and cows.”

A few of our beautiful friends who we have the profound privilege of caring and providing a home for, thanks to so many:

Gordo!

    Great tribute to your parents , “honor/light”( meaning of Noreen),guard/ protector”(meaning of Ned).
    Now if we could get Willy B & Meredith to stop making faces @the camera –” If you take one more photo! I’m eatin here”!! Thank you Joan.
