It is with sadness that we share the recent passing of Susan Michaels, co-founder of Pasado’s Safe Haven. She passed away in late December due to health complications.
Susan was a former TV personality in Seattle, Wash., with a longstanding dedication to helping animals, including founding the Humane Society of Seattle/King County’s “Tuxes and Tails” gala.
Susan started Pasado’s Safe Haven in 1997 in memory of our namesake, Pasado the donkey, who was beaten to death in Bellevue, Wash. She continued her work at the sanctuary through 2010.
Susan will forever be remembered for her fierce dedication and incredible work on behalf of the animals. Our thoughts are with her family and friends.
