 On Wednesday January 16, 2008 at the age of 94 Eta Pauptit  
 passed away.  
 For over 75 years Eta was a dedicated fancier of the Afghan Hound,  
 Saluki and Shih Tzu. Under the affix of “van de Oranje Manege” (vdOM),  
 she bred for many years. Her breeding kennel has produced many  
 (international) champions and is known all over the world.  
 For many well known and today still active breeders Eta Pauptit’s dogs  
 have been the foundation of their breeding kennel  
 A memorial service will be held in Epe on Monday, January 21,  
 followed by the interment in Scheveningen, her place of birth, in  
 the presence of family and close friends

 A lady to remember and honour, for sure. She deserves her rest  
 after a long life, still it?s a great loss for us newbies in particular.  
 Will light a candle for her, and wish her a peaceful travel.
