Remember the story about the abused dog in York, PA? An 11 yr old girl saved the little dog, Heaven, from certain death. A few of us phoned and emailed the girl's school and the mayor's office, asking that she be recognized. Our wish came true; Serenity was honored yesterday by school officials and the mayor in a large school assembly!
The principal emailed me this morning:

Thank you for your concern. We are very proud of all of our students, especially Serenity. Here is some of the media links for our Hero Assembly on Friday.

Happy, happy tears over here!
BTW, Heaven is recovering nicely and Serenity hopes to bring her home soon.
