![]() I've done this list every year except for last and apologize in advance for anyone who gets irritated by it.
I'm sure there are many names I've unintentionally left out so please feel free to add them or any special memory, replay, story, or just the name of one or two you were fond of if you'd like. A nice way to honor a horse we've lost this year is to make a donation in his or her name but I won't bombard anyone with links, etc., this time around. I'm sure everyone here knows the many wonderful places that could use financial help (even a small donation). I hope next year the list will be shorter. * * * He spake well who said that graves are the footprints of angels. ~Henry Wadsworth Longfellow Texan Imperial Guest Selkirk Pico Central Master O'Reilly Autism Awareness Didyme Diligent Gambler Wildcat's Smile Bomber Boy Asbourne Folly Baltimoar Ten Most Wanted Beneteau Elletelle Pleasant Friday Tough N Dangerous 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 Katchit Iwillgotothemoon A Toe by Three Miss Denny Lady Legion Gougane Generous Backstreet Bully Le Beau Bai Fierce Face Pressday National Emblem Ms. Stalwart Rockamundo Variety Road Eagle Falls Marquetry LB Twenty Jaime's Gold Tough Madama Graceful Pass Bailey's Agincourt Bobby Zapper When you are sorrowful look again in your heart, and you shall see that in truth you are weeping for that which has been your delight. ~Kahlil Gibran Aland Island Media Mogul Gilhooly's Super Formal Attire Coopnsocks Arctic Crown Speedicious Maui Marquis Single Rule Flash of Steel Black Mango Darlan Desert Vision Towering Defence Adviser Mujamead Jet Legend Alpha Mike Foxtrot Bobbyjack Blue Blue Sea Derive Apt Approach Oscar Nominee Shinrock Hill Fran's Folly Unable are the loved to die.

![]() I remember thinking this had to be an act and it would end soon. It hasn't. You really have a love for these animals. You're very different and not at all in a bad way. This was very nicely done.

![]() I wanted to quietly add in these names but I can't edit the original post.
It's awkward for me to thank you for the nice comments since I didn't do anything... all I did was put the list together... but I'm glad if it brought back a nice memory or two. I hope that we can think of them and smile and remember the great moments they gave us. Princess Arabella's Tapit baby Rocky Barboa Mia Missile Chok Chok My Wahoo Jimmy Piping Rock Silver Train |

![]() Thanks, MMSC. As usual it's quite a list, and each one is special to someone somewhere who actually put a hand on him or her.
