We Remember Teerose
We lost Teerose unexpectedly after she gave birth in 2002, when she suffered severe hidden internal injuries and courageously nursed her filly for an entire day before surgery revealed she had to be put to sleep. Tee went from a very successful career at Fourth Level Dressage to High Point Hanoverian at her Inspection and an equally successful career as broodmare of six wonderful foals. We had her just over a year, and had grown to cherish her. Her legacy lives on in her lovely foals, Delta Don, Drifter, Devotee all by Donavan. Also Winteroza, Arabella and Galataea.
Eve of Victory
We are sad to report that Evie had to be humanely euthanized September 14 due to a severe colic. Our daughter Jill took her to 2 veterinarians to determine that surgery would be the only option and the results might not be excellent. So we have lost this wonderful mare. Donnacha, ( Dunny) was born July 4, 2005! The AHS judges had much praise for this colt and the Donavan /TB cross!! Dunny was sold to a up coming young rider for her future star.
Gone but not forgotten
In the past three to four years we have said goodbye to Rocky, a very sweet long haired black and white cat; Augusta, the princess, a multi colored long haired cat; Lucci, our daughter's lovely gray and white cat-dog, who lived here many many months; Chip our exhuberant Springer Spaniel; and his buddy Mac, the tri-colored collie. Radar, recently passed away, August of 2007. All lived long (13 -17 years) and love filled lives. We were with them when they were laid to rest nearby.
