THE STRANDING Alert boaters Lucy and Carlyle Gee notitced this turtle passively floating on the surface of the water near Masonboro Island.  Worried that the turtle would be hit by a passing boat before rescuers could arrive, the Gees were able to get the turtle into their boat. Nancy Fahey met them at the dock and transported the turtle to the KBSTRRC.
She was named in honor of Memorial Day.
THE TREATMENT Started on fluids and antibiotics and placed in shallow fresh water.
 

TLC, time and eating everyday have contributed to this turtle's well being.

 This is a well turtle.  Anytime anyone passes by, Remembrance thinks it is time to eat and opens her big beak.  Got Fish?
 

Fit and ready to go, Rembrance leaves us a very different turtle.
