Evelyn B., 80, Erie, PA

Evelyn Black, 80, an Air Force veteran and retired nurse, had her wish for a visit from a golden retriever granted on December 5, 2011.  Because of several medical issues, Black is rarely able to leave her home and requires continuous oxygen therapy.  A single mother, Black also volunteered with the Maria House Project in Erie and as a Eucharistic minister at her church.  Black’s wish came true when Daisy, a rescue golden retriever, visited her at her home in Erie.  Special thanks to Therapy Dogs United, Inc., of Erie for making this wish come true.
