Tribute to Michael Palutke
Tragically lost on December 26th, 2005
A loss mourned, a life celebrated by hundreds of family and friends ...

"This memory brightens o'er the past; as when the sun, concealed; behind some cloud that near us hangs; shines on a distant field."

- Henry Wadsworth Longfellow

Mike was a great friend and extremely gifted Samoyed breeder and judge.  We were privledged to have had the opportunity to work with him and his famous SNOWGHOST bloodline, and will endeavor to preserve it long into the future so that others might know and enjoy it for generations to come.  No ordinary dreamer, Mike lived more in his short lifetime than most people would live in ten.  He was just that kind of guy.  We miss you like crazy Mikey, and know you are still enjoying many more 'miles of smiles' on another trail.  'Til we meet again ...

- Love Blair & Judi
