Tribute to Bill Slaven
Many years ago
my first visit
to Zamora with
Lily
Bill testing Lily on sheep and
declaring her "quite eager"
Zamora range ewes

of the spirit
of Bill Slaven
Professor
of UC Davis
Veterinary School
Remembering a
strong honest
quiet
shepherd
and
resolving what
the truly
important things
are in life
Watching the competitors
from high on the
rolling green hills
feeling the spirit
of Bill in the
breeze and
ever so
present
in the
sigh
of
the windmill
The flyby in his honor
The fields of
gold
A sunset
for now
but your
spirit will
be in the
rolling hills
forever
Wonderful pictures and commentary, Mary. That trial was Bill's dream and his efforts enabled many of us to follow our dreams as well.
