Personal note

Thank you for loving Sasha, sharing your memories, grieving, and donating to the cause. I wanted to share the information about the stray dogs shelter, where we will send the funds. The shelter is in Zaporizhya, Ukraine.

Sasha loved all animals but was especially concerned when she saw dogs and cats who had never known home. She would be happy to help.
Thank you from Sasha!

Updates

Update from July 25, 2024

Dear friends, we thank everyone who helped us through the most challenging experience when we lost our dearest Sasha. Your actions, whether it was reaching out with condolences, sharing financial support, food, hugs, love, text messages, kind words, thoughts, or prayers, profoundly impacted us. Your kindness and support were instrumental in helping us maintain our belief that good will always triumph over evil. We are so grateful for you.
Here is information about the place where we put Sasha to rest. We have chosen to invest in the Neptune Memorial Reef, a place of serene beauty. The Reef lies three miles off the Florida coast near Key Biscayne at a depth of 40 feet. It is the most bio-diverse habitat in the state's waters, home to more than 140 marine species, and the resting place for the cremated remains.
We also scattered some of Sasha's ashes in the ocean. She loved the sea; now, it is her forever home, where we can always feel her presence and love.

Update from Feb. 13, 2024

Dear all, it is tough to go public, but we feel that it is crucial for us to do so. Keeping the cause of Sasha's death secret will not ease our pain, but talking openly about it can potentially save lives. We are going through hell, so you don't have to; please read it, share it with everyone you know, and don't think it is irrelevant to you or your loved ones. We cannot afford to be naive in the world we live in now.
