It was an honor and a pleasure to work with Bill to create Pottstown's first EcoFest. Many of us knew him for years through animal rescue and his Annual Pottstown Pet Fair. Bill was a great friend to the animals of Pottstown. He helped us to start EcoFest because he was excited to have another animal-friendly event in our town. Bill, we miss you so much and we are very grateful for all you did with and for us last year. EcoFest 2019 will be held in your honor and we will keep you in our hearts. www.billthecatguy.com MOBILIZATION FOR ANIMALS; PO BOX 216, POTTSTOWN PA, 19464; EVENTS@MOBILIZATIONFORANIMALS.ORG; 610-393-2538
