Tyree

When Tyree met Hershey, she was almost six months old. She wasn't quite full grown size, but she wasn't very small. Her ears were just beginning to stand up. One was straight up and one continued to point toward center. She was getting taller. Her coat was just beginning to show signs of being full. At this point we still weren't aware that her final look would have very long hair and flowing feathers on her legs.

It wasn't very long before Tyree, too, fell under her spell. Whenever possible, Hershey was always included in our adventures. Meeting Tyree brought great adventure in both of our lives. Tyree had a passion for skydiving. This brought both me and Hershey out to join in the fun....from the ground, of course.

By that fall, Tyree married us both. By that time there wasn't much choice for him, we were a package deal. The joke over the years was that he married me in order to get Hershey. She always had that way with people…constantly winning over new hearts. Tyree always said she was “mommy’s girl”. To tell the truth, she loved us both so much that if we were apart, she missed who was ever gone the most.
