I came across this story by chance, and found it very moving. Look forward to reading more of O'Connor's work.

Just finished "One More Winter" by Rebecca O'Connor. This short story is insightful and fascinating on several different levels. It also made me reflect on Fifi, Elvis and Fabian who met their ends on US 223 Adrian, Michigan.

The canine bibliophile, Booth, who provided testimony for the story is a BIG hit!

I actually drove by Gilman Springs Road today and immediately looked over to the area referenced in the story.
Every dog should be so lucky to be cared about so much! I also learned some things I didn't know - especially about MIA's. Loved it Rebecca!
