Location: In a happy place | I just received a call that Rocky colicked yesterday and didn't make it. I have the copy of his papers boxed up for my move so I am not quite sure how old he was, probably around 17.
I bought him just off of the track and he came here on this earth inheriently knowing the barrel pattern. Can't say I did much, just stayed out of his way and let him work. He was one of the most awesome barrel horses I ever rode. Big beautiful black boy with a star in his face. My husband made me sell him and some other geldings I had at that time. I will forever remember the rides he gave me and how much fun he was to have around.
He was by Zip Cash by Dash For Cash and out of mare named Camry by Easy Jet.
I will forever miss you Rocky. |

Location: Oklahoma | I saw that on Facebook. So sorry for our loss. I lost one of my greats that I sold a couple of weeks ago. Even though you no longer own them, they still have a place in your heart and it still hurts to know they're not longer there. Hugs. |

Location: In a happy place | TIA I have cried and whined so much to you I don't see how you can stand to hear me cry one more time. I am still crying so hard every day for Chubby that this hit just too hard at a really bad time. I have tried to not cry when I talk to you so thought it was best to not bring it up. When I feel like I can control myself I will call you and tell you what else I am dealing with at the moment. I just need to remember that I am blessed. |
