I know I haven't made many post on here and I hate for my this to be my first real one but this hit close to home. I had not talked to Mo in a few years but he was a good guy and one of the reasons I was planing on getting back into the dog sports. Sadly Mo Weldon of the Western KY SchH Club passed away after a horrible car accident. I pulled this frome the schutzhund board hope it ok because I didn't save the links to the news article.
It is with great sadness that I share the news of the passing of a good friend, Mo Weldon. Please keep his family and friends in your thoughts.
Mo Weldon of Western KY SchH Club passed away last night following a bad traffic accident. Mo was a longtime member of USA starting back in the mid 1980's. He began his life with the United Schutzhund Clubs of America as a member of the old Southern Indiana SchH Club located in New Albany, Indiana with Larry Cleamons and Matt Duffy. He later moved to Kentucky and trained with the Kentuckiana Schutzhund Club before moving south to Alabama and then back to the Bowling Green, KY area.
Mo and his wife, Tammy, have been the training directors and the driving force behind Western KY Schutzhund Club for the past several years. Many of you that have trialed at National Events over the past decade may have had the opportunity to get to meet Mo as the trial chairman for the 2003 North American and FH Championships that was hosted by Western KY SchH Club and the Tracking Co-ordinater and/or track layer for several of our USA National and Regional Events.
I will share more information about visitation and services as soon as the information becomes available and have it placed on the website as well.
