Passing

Melissa's dad passed away a few minutes after midnight this morning.

Horse chores and horse care will continue on normally but our focus the next week or two will be grieving our loss and marking his passage among family and close friends. Our business communications and responses to enquires will be significantly delayed during this time.

Thank you so much for your kind wishes, prayers, thoughts and patience.

Sincerely;

Jason and Melissa

    So very sorry to hear about your family's loss. The stories that you have shared with us regarding your father have always made it clear that the love and appreciation you have for him was mirrored by the love and pride he had for you and Jason.

    Your stories and photos of your father have always tugged at my heart in that you could tell you are two peas in a pod.
