Going Beyond the Meetings: October 9,
2010 saw the culmination of three
months of planning for the closing
down of a member‟s pond in Hesperia.
When Ray Woernel died early this year, his
wife tried to keep his pond going, but by
July Dolores had asked the club to rescue the
fish, hopefully find them homes, and drain
the pond. Ed Kushner brought the request to
the Board and coordinated the team effort. Read More: Woernel Koi Rescue
We
sadly said good-bye to Inland Koi Society's founder and good friend,
Bob Everett, who
passed away on October 30, 2010 from cancer. IKS AKCA Represenative
Larry Leverett said, "We helped with his pond towards the last as he
couldn't stand for very long. We had about 20 club members come to
his house to help, not that we needed that much help, they just
wanted to be there. He was very touched by our presence, as we were
for all that he has meant for our club."
