Default I lost my friend.

Eastover Faith passed away on saturday. Son of Eastover Court and Blind Faith and Grandson of the great Seattle Slew.

He was a great friend and loyal companion to all at the Rerun farm in N.J.

We will miss you. Long live Eastover Faith.

Sorry to hear about Eastover Faith. It sounds like he was a wonderful horse. He certainly was cute.

Sorry to hear that, sad news indeed. What a beautiful boy (I love the grays).

He was fortunate to be at Re-Run, and Re-Run was fortunate to have him.

Sorry for you loss, he looked so sweet with the little girl.

I too have a ReRun horse, Sliver Over Finish, a grandson of the great Buckpasser.

He is so much fun. This week end I had him in the stall while I mowed and aerated the paddock, mulching up all of the fallen leaves to help get some nice grass growth for next spring and when I let him out, he was so fun to watch. He was only in for about 1 hour, but it was such an ice day when he came out he ran and ran with his tail up, neck arched. Just beautiful.


They really do inspire to see how happy they can be over some thing as simple as a nice day.

Keep your horse in your heart always.


DeeTee nation- Support ReRun and other horse charities as much as you can.

Your friend,
Cathy

Richard,

Very sorry to hear... I know you have great passion for all horses and your love for them is evident in your artwork. Your kindness toward Eastover Faith and any OTT horse is widely appreciated by all. Here's hoping a new companion works his or her way to you and fills the void.

I'm painfully sorry.

I know that it hurts but try to remember you made a difference to him... made his life better... more joyful.

I hope someday soon you can remember him and smile again.
