I received this message from Jan Lovell, the Secrectary of the Georgia
Domestic Ferret Assoc.  There was no greater lover of ferrets than Betty.
In addition to being a care giver to the sick and homeless she was one of
the original authors of the L.I.F.E.  ferret judging standard.  She will be
greatly missed by all of us.

Yesterday, August 12, 1997, Elizabeth Ann Toskos, president of the Georgia
Domestic Ferret Association, passed on to the Rainbow Bridge to join her Dad
and all her beloved "children" who have passed on before her.
 
She was my friend.  She was my "voice of reason".  I could always count on
her to calm me down and give me a different perspective on things when I
needed it - and Lord knows I've needed it more than once in the years I've
been involved with the GDFA.  She was there for me when Slinkea had her kits
and I had a million and one questions.  She introduced me to the world of
Dobermans.  I've learned a lot from her in the 8+ years I've known her and
she will be greatly missed.
 
The family has asked that, in lieu of flowers, please make a donation to
your favorite cause.  The GDFA will be making a donation to the Morris
Animal Foundation's Rabies Shedding Studies in her memory.
