Never forget

Remembering those dear to us

This space is dedicated to the memory of those—both human and animal—whose love and legacy have touched the heart of DARS. Whether it’s a cherished pet, a faithful volunteer, or a beloved supporter, these tributes honor lives well-lived and deeply missed.

Every story here reminds us why we do what we do.

For a donation as little as $10, you can honor or remember someone, and help DARS save lives.
