Monroe's Daughter "Simmer" Wins Best In Show !!!
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Friday...........October 9, 2009 Today in New Jersey at the Monticello Kennel Club Show Multiple BISS & Group Winning CH.Shomberg's One Hot Ticket Deppe Haus (GSPCA Top Producing Show Sire CH.Wyndbourne Endeavour JH NRD ROMX & GSPCA Top Producing Show Dam NSC/BIS/BISS CH.Shomberg's Some Like It Hot ROM ) " Simmer" wins All- Breed Best In Show under respected Best In Show Judge, Mr.Sam Houston McDonald Breed & Sporting Group..... Breeder-Judge......Mrs. Betsy Yates How very fitting that this show was dedicated to the memory of our dear friend in the Shorthair breed, Mr.Jim Burns. Jim presented Monroe with the GSPCA National Specialty Best of Breed win in 2004. He was a respected AKC Judge, a nationally recognized breeder of champion Shorthairs and Vizslas and he is very much missed by all of us who knew him and enjoyed so many great years in his friendship. So this was a very special day as Jim's wife, June, was ringside to see Simmer continue her dam's winning ways on this very special day. We are so happy that Patty and Jim & Mimi were there to see it happen as well among other wonderful friends and supporters. As always, Simmer was presented magnificently by her handler, Pamela Bober, who always does such a lovely job with her. Pam, we so appreciate your efforts. What a team !! Sincere "Congratulations " to Jim and Mimi and thank you for allowing Simmer to represent "Shomberg" in such an outstanding way. We are very honored indeed and acknowledge the effort and financial sacrifice you make to have Simmer in this level of competition. Thank you, Patty. You are always ringside and always supporting Simmer just as you do all of the Monroe "kids". It never goes un-noticed or without deep appreciation for all that you have done and continue to do in Monroe's memory. She loved you so and she always will. We know why. A special thank you and "Congratulations" as well to Sue Harrison of Wyndbourne, the owner of "Shain", who is Simmer's sire. We know she's every bit as proud as we are and that she was cheering in Florida and now lifting a toast. One helluva combination, kiddo !! Our unwaivering love and dedication to the "dog who made dreams come true", our beautiful Roe Roe. Precious girl, loved beyond words and missed so deeply every day .........it is all because of you. Sharon & Steve ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ A true testament to the quality of this lovely bitch is the fact that she has achieved her awards and continued her climb to the top of the GSPCA winning statistics without a single page of paid advertising or financial supporters endorsing her. That pretty much says it all. You go girl !!!
