Remembering those who gave all.

From 1968 to 2001, Gunther Gebel-Williams stood as one of the most celebrated circus performers and animal trainers in the United States. His extraordinary talent and charisma captured the hearts of audiences across the nation. I recently had the opportunity to visit his memorial in Venice, Florida, a place dedicated to honoring his remarkable contributions to the circus arts. As I walked through the memorial, I can remember the many times I had seen him perform. The skills he displayed with animals were not just a spectacle; they were a testament to his deep understanding and love for them.
