Susan Widmar lives in
St. Paul, Minn., with her husband of 26+ years. They have no
children, but when Nick showed interest in having a dog (1994).
Susan, who grew up with a 'dale, said that would be fine, "You can
have any dog you like as long as it's an Airedale." After raising
and saying goodbye to two Highpoint Airedales, they now are very
much owned by Chloe, a rescue from Airedale Terrier Rescue &
Adoption (ATRA).
Working full-time in
marketing and communications, Susan was left with a lot of spare
time after graduating from a master's program in spring 2009. A
long-time-ago embroiderer, Susan decided to take a crack at applique
for the Bee's quilt. She reports that applique is both difficult and
quick to reveal that there is arthritis in them-thar fingers.
Susan is a volunteer
with ATRA, doing transports and home visits. She soon will take the
reins of the ATRA monthly newsletter. She is a member of the Twin
Cities Airedale Terrier Club.
