In memory of my mother, Lillie May Allison, to whom I owe my knowledge of goats, love of goats and the great joy that I have derived from raising them. Not a day goes by that I dont smile and reflect on the character that she was, the appreciation of life that she showed me and the wonderful gift of living life to the fullest that she gave to me. I thank her each time I look out into our green irrigated fields full of all those wonderful goats!
