Erso became Dylan’s best friend in 2022. He quickly made the district his second home and can often be seen cruising around on our golf carts, under Dylan’s care. Erso provides comfort to many of our families during what is often one of the most difficult times in one’s life.

Erso loves to climb trees, say hello to our regular cemetery visitors, and looks forward to his daily cookies from the main office.
