The 3rd Annual National Pet Memorial Day will bring the community together in Sherman to commemorate the beloved animals that have deeply touched your hearts. The September 11 event, taking place from 5:30-7pm rain or shine, will feature live music by Bob O’Connor, Pet Communicator Melissa Merendino, a canine service dog honoring, and a candle meditation with Andrea Laubstein. A memorial wall will be featured where you can post photos.

Food donations will be accepted at the event for local animal shelters. A wish balloon can be purchased with a $25 donation to the Association for Pet Loss and Bereavement (APLB.org).

Attendees are respectfully asked to leave their pets at home.
