A Final Farewell
For anyone who'd like to remember those we lost this year...
I've tried to include everyone and, of course, apologize if I have left any names off or for any spelling errors. Once again this year I have only listed horses here and not people and their order is somewhat the order of their passing (which I prefer to an alphabetized listing). Please feel free to add in any names I've accidentally left out, or any memory, reflection... anything you like. * * * * * * * When he shall die, Take him and cut him out in little stars, And he will make the face of heaven so fine That all the world will be in love with night, And pay no worship to the garish sun. ~ William Shakespeare Doriemus Generous George Golden Bay Personal Opinion Saratoga Sensation Thunder Rumble Wildcat Heir Shewreckstheplace Mr. Obvious My New Angel Tough Trade Warren's Assassin Apex Game Plan Whitby Jack Ihtimal Elite Belle Man, when he does not grieve, hardly exists. ~Antonio Porchia Channel of Love Elnadim You Take the Cake Myth Cycle Sir King Prawn Boy's Brother Bob One Step Higher Italian Rules Skippin N Ajumpin King Edmund Stuffed Animal One More Chief Big Swig Torrential Rain There is a sacredness in tears. They are not the mark of weakness, but of power. They speak more eloquently than ten thousand tongues. They are the messengers of overwhelming grief... and unspeakable love. ~ Washington Irving Tiger Ridge Flashy Sunrise Escapedfromnewyork Miss Macarena Warrior Forever She Be Bunny Farasi Kubwa Danehill Flyer Mojolika Markem Fort Wood American Sun Trail’satwosteppin Senso Shuzohra Sharp Harbour The wind of heaven is that which blows between a horse's ears. ~Arabian Proverb Haylist Burnstone Stay Gold A Gordon For Me Strike it Cody Wildly Quiet Trust in Tebow There are no good-byes.

Run in peace. * * * * * At this festive time of year and for those who are able, please consider a small donation to any charity in their honor. We cannot do great things on this earth... only small things with great love. ~Mother Teresa http://www.excellerfund.org http://www.canterusa.org/ http://www.afterthehomestretchaz.org/ http://saratogawarhorse.com/ http://www.tca.org/ http://www.pdjf.org/ http://www.afterthefinishline.org/ http://www.equineencorefoundation.org/ http://www.rerunottb.com/ http://ourmims.org/ http://www.oldfriendsequine.org/ http://www.vet.upenn.edu/giving/how-...e/barbaro-fund http://www.livinglegends.org.au/ http://equusfoundation.org/ http://www.pdjf.org/ http://www.afterthefinishline.org/ http://www.equineencorefoundation.org/ http://www.rerunottb.com/ http://ourmims.org/ http://www.oldfriendsequine.org/ http://www.vet.upenn.edu/giving/how-...e/barbaro-fund http://www.livinglegends.org.au/ http://equusfoundation.org/ Last edited by my miss storm cat : 12-20-2015 at 05:39 PM.

Thank you, MMSC.
His is a power enhanced by pride, a courage heightened by challenge. His is a swiftness intensified by strength, a majesty magnified by grace. His is a timeless beauty touched with gentleness, a spirit that calls our hearts to dream. ~ Unknown I heard a neigh. Oh, such a brisk and melodious neigh it was! My very heart leapt with the sound. ~ Nathaniel Hawthorne

Bad fire
Bad fire in Canada last night claimed the lives of 40 standard breds. So sad.
