      I like to think he's resting amongst all of the animal souls he's saved over the years. Once they arrive in heaven they all flock straight to him and ignore ol' God, who's maybe a little jealous of our Simon lol.

      When a large field of milkweed was going to be bulldozed he organized a group of men to help transplant as many milkweed plants as possible.
      We had a large patch on our property and the Monarch butterfly's came laying hundreds of eggs.
      When they were in the chrysalis stage by father built a large screen cage around them to protect them.
      My parents would invite other child in our town to watch the Monach butterfly's being released & flying away.
      (My siblings and I counted the first time 102 Chrysalises.)
      Every year they came back to my Dad's milkweed patch and still do.
