In loving memory of Michael Shannon McCallum, our family, friend, colleague and United States Army Veteran, who spent his life keeping other people safe. We honor his memory and love for animals through this memorial fund,  established in his name for NEADS (more about NEADS below).  Shannon loved all animals and his service dog held a very special place in his heart. 

While we all love and will miss Shannon greatly, the stories and the memories we each have of him are special and we hold them greatly in our heart. If you can make a donation to this organization, know your donation is providing a well-trained dog for another Veteran in need.

Thank you and God Bless,
