Convention Memories - Old Friends Cheryl and Eric

Betty and Cheryl are old friends.     We have known each other for over 28 years before Cheryl became a judge.    At that time, there were very few Asians active in the rabbit shows, we were two of the "rare breeds".    We went toward different directions: I went into very active showing while Cheryl became a judge and then known for being the Chair of the extremely important ARBA Standards Committee from the early to late 2010s.     

Eric and Cheryl took judges' test in the same year and both were successful and became judges, that was 1995.  Eric became the ARBA executive director in 2009.     I am very honored to be sandwiched in between these two of the most respected breeders/judges.
