| THE DOG THAT FELL FROM THE SKY
AND LIVED HAPILLY EVER AFTER
Known now as Grandma Atha, Shirley Swigart Atha was born on a farm near Troy, Ohio, where all the children learned what farm life was about. Pets and many farm animals taught her love and respect for all of God's creatures. Educated in small country schools, she graduated from high school as a member of the National Honor Society in 1956. While working full time she attended college classes at night, married, and raised three children. After 38 years, Atha retired as a factory technician. She lived in Ohio 63 years before moving to Florida where her husband of 53 years died in 2008. She now lives with her sister and their three dogs. Grandma Atha has 4 grandsons and 6 great-grandchildren. This picture of her holding a wolf pup was taken at a wolf refuge in Florida.
All God's creatures deserve love and respect!
