Earlier this year, North Shore Bank employees donated pet supplies and a check for $1,825 to the Wisconsin Humane Society in honor of nurse practitioner Carlie Beaudin, an animal lover who died in January.

The donated funds have helped the nonprofit cover spaying and neutering procedures, as well as other surgeries and medical treatments. The Humane Society also dedicated a bench, pictured above, to Carlie’s memory.

“The bench is in a very meditative area of our campus and I am sure brings joy to anyone who is looking for a quiet place to reflect or take a rest, whether they are of the human or canine species,” an advisor from the Humane Society wrote.

The inscription on the bench reads:

Many thanks again to everyone who donated supplies or money.
