Gremel was able to make this amazing donation because he purchased $1,000 worth of Walgreens stock seven decades ago whose value has grown recently. A single man with no kids, Gremel has lived in the same Chicago house for 95 years, and has always lived simply, neighbor Patrick Falso told TODAY. Falso said he heard Gremel say many times the money wasn39。t mine to begin with and that he always intended to give it away. The Gremel Wildlife shelter was founded on June 4. Illinois Audubon Society president Jim Herkert said Gremel39。s donation was extremely generous. It39。s allowing us to protect a really valuable and important possession and realize one of Gremel39。s wishes that we could find a place where people could e out and experience nature the way he did as a kid, Herkert told TODAY. After doing all this, this past weekend, Gremel adopted an old Chihuahua(吉娃娃犬). Winnie the dog was picked up as a homeless dog several months ago. She suffered from a kind of cancer, which was treated—and all she needed was a loving home, which Colleen Collins, the founder of Perfect Pooches Adoption Agency, was determined to find. Gremel had lost his own beloved Chihuahua earlier this year. When he reached out to Collins about Winnie, she felt this could be a good match. That feeling grew when she brought Winnie to his house for a meet and greet, and Winnie was introduced not only to Gremel but also some of his friends and neighbors. One had brought over a lot of fresh strawberries。 all said they39。d be there to help out in any way needed.(1)Patrick Falso is mentioned in the text mainly to explain _________.
