In Loving Memory Amos died peacefully at home on October 30, 2006 just a few weeks after celebrating his 91st birthday. He was a member in good standing with the Lancaster Kennel Club and held many offices during his tenure including that of Show Chair. He and his wife founded the Great Dane Club of Central PA to which both are honorary members. They bred successfully under the kennel name of Mountdania and much of their stock can be found in the pedigrees of many fawn/brindle lines of today. A few notable GDCA wins by danes they bred were the 1962 & 1964 GDCA BOB winner, BISS CH Gretchen Khan of Mountdania, the 1966 GDCA BOS winner, CH Kahns Kim of Mountdania, and the 1968 BIF winner Beaudane's Hedy v. MtDania. He was a special person to a great many people. I don't think that he nor Anna Mary even realized the kind of affect both have had on so many people’s lives over the years until something like this inspires well-wishers to come forward and share their innermost thoughts and memories. He was a loving husband to Anna Mary and a dear friend and mentor to newbies like myself. I cannot sum up, in a simple posting or even in a long eloquent one, his life and his impact on the ones around him. I most certainly cannot tell of his effect on me, but I can say that I was proud to know him. He was the oldest man I knew, and he had the most open and inquisitive mind of anyone I've ever known. Without ever trying to, he taught me a valuable lesson; one that was taught by example, in the way he lived his life. He taught me that an open mind is not a luxury of youth; it is a trait to be cherished and nourished for all your life. To never close your eyes, to always look, and strive, and to learn is to never grow old! Though age claimed his body, it never claimed his mind. His gentle wit was as sharp the day he died as any day of his life. Respectfully submitted, Anna Mary In lieu of flowers, Anna Mary has asked that donations be made to: Mid-atlantic Great Dane Rescue (MAGDRL): www.magdrl.org
