Sylvia, helping out as Kathryn's Angel, feeding the four goats, and Dede, the Morgan horse, wants in on the food too! Sylvia is so patient, caring, and kind to all the animals, and has been a "tremendous" assistance to TGMR, 
the animals, and Kathryn. Sylvia, has also, been very generous, in donating "Gatorade" for the piggies, carrots, apples, applesauce, and bread for the animals...Sylvia, has some creative ideas, on how to care for the animals! 
Thanks for doing all you do Sylvia, to help both "people" and "animals!" We are so grateful to our "Angel" Sylvia.

No job is "too big" or "too small" or "too smelly or dirty" for Sylvia. Sylvia pitches in and does it "all" from feeding the therapy animals,to ground maintance, to walking Rocky, the Great Pyrenees dog. Here we see Sylvia, bracing the winter weather, with a wheelbarrow of "alpaca" poop! Great shoving today, Sylvia! BG & KG

 

Mrs. Sylvia Merkel, again, volunteering giving of her time, to help the animals! Today, Sylvia is seen in this photo, with Miss Tiffany from California, getting the water supply to be fresh and clear. Sylvia is a wonderful "mentor" to new volunteers and comes up with some "creative" ideas of how to enhance the living areas for the animals, as well as "behavioral modification" for some "spitting alpacas, or "stubborn goats! Thank you, so much Sylvia, for being a great role model and mentor for new volunteers, young and older alike. Sylvia, TGMR's angel, "teaching" Miss Tiffany, from California, how to do "fresh water", and keep the water supply clean as well as the animals' environment! Sylvia is one great example of "teamwork" and teaching 
others the "ropes" or in this case bailing water for the animals."
