This page is dedicated to all my wonderful 'Horse Friends' that have touched my life
in the past. Each was unique in their own way, but still loved all the same. They all have passed on, but are not forgotten
and are still in my heart; hopefully someday, we'll all be together again.
"When I can't ride any more, I shall still keep horses as long as
I can hobble about with a bucket and a wheelbarrow. When I can't hobble, I shall roll my wheelchair out to the fence of the
field where my horses graze and watch them."

"Weep not for me though I am gone
Into that gentle night.
Grieve if you will, but not for long
Upon my soul's sweet flight.
I am at peace, my soul's at rest
There is no need for tears.
For with your love I was so blessed
For all those many years.
There is no pain, I suffer not,
The fear now all is gone.
Put now these things out of your thoughts,
In your memory I live on.
Remember not my fight for breath
Remember not the strife.
Please do not dwell upon my death,
But celebrate my life."
| Bacardi 151 1984 |
