of the All Ireland Golden Retriever Club, both Michael and Cynthia Twist
were influential in developing the Golden Retriever in Ireland as far
back as 1946 prior to the Club's formation in 1953. The Officers and
Committee join together with the membership in offering their deepest
sympathies to the Twist family at this time of sadness.
