IN MEMORY OF:
To honor the memory of Michael Osborn, whose advocacy efforts made it possible for assistance dog partners to travel to the United Kingdom accompanied by their guide, hearing and service dogs in the airplane cabin, the International Association of Assistance Dog Partners (IAADP) will be dedicating its 2008 conference in his name. Michael, a former IAADP Board member, anticipated with relish attending the conference on June 25 at the Renaissance Hotel at Heathrow Airport, London. Those of us traveling from North America to the UK are deeply indebted to Michael for all of his efforts on his and our behalf. His tenacity and persuasiveness paved the way for all of us desiring to travel internationally with our canine assistants. The conference luncheon will provide an opportunity to celebrate his life and achievements.
