August 28, 2008:
Long time PSDC Member Terry Slaybugh passed away Wednesday, August 27, 2008, after a long battle with cancer. While not founding members of the club, Terry & his wife Doreen joined PSDC in its early days in the 1970's. They have been active members ever since. Both have served on the PSDC Board. Terry competed in many PSDC races with his registered Siberian Huskies through the 1970's, 80's and into the '90s. Both Terry & Doreen were strong advocates of working registered dogs; and both Terry and Doreen have worked to keep the club and PA club members aware of dog legislature pending in PA.
His memorial service is Friday night, August 29, 2008, in Williamsport PA. A floral arrangement, on behalf of the PSDC, has been sent. Sympathy cards may be sent to: Doreen Slaybaugh, 1013 Louisa Street, Williamsport, PA 17701. Information will follow with the address of the memorial services.
