Default A Final Farewell

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.

When he shall die,
Take him and cut him out in little stars,

That all the world will be in love with night,
And pay no worship to the garish sun.

... as well as the unamed... victims of fire, slaughter, of abuse and neglect... those who no one knows about, fell through the cracks or were never reported.

Sleep in peace.
