From Sarah's page
This is very difficult and my heart is so broken while I write this..
Yesterday Bling had an extreme case of muscle tying up which sent her kidneys into shock and caused them to fail. I rushed to her and got to love on her right after she passed. I never thought I would get that phone call or that she would have been taken so early in life, but His plans are bigger than ours. Not that this makes any of it easier but maybe one day I will look back and see why. He blessed me with Bling, always opened doors, and kept us safe on our journey.
Bling was the most magical horse.
Her color was one in a million and it changed with the seasons. She made all my dreams come true and won the hearts of many. We gave 110% and performed off of each others energy. She loved competing in front of the big crowds as much as I loved being on her back. She fought hard with that huge heart of hers and pulled runs out when our backs were against the wall. She was a champion!!
Most of all, she was my best friend.
She taught me so many lessons and picked me up countless times. There is not a day I won't think of her and I will carry her in my heart forever. Sweet Bling, I smile when I think of all the ways you have blessed me and others! What a huge blessing you were and always will be to my family and I!!
I promise I will give your babies the best chance and life they can have! I see you in all of them and that is so special.
Thank you for the best rides of my life and the feeling of being on your back will forever be in my soul. I'm so thankful for the memories we have and the time we got to spend together. Rest in peace sweet girl. I hope to ride you again one day.
I love you Bling. ???? |

| Wow, so sorry this happened to Sarah and her amazing mare. The NFR won't be the same without her. I loved how Joe marveled at her athleticism and Sarah's ability to ride her. Prayers for Sarah. |

It's hard when any horse passes away. Even worse when it's sudden. Even worse when it's one as talented as Bling.

The roan is by Cowboys Cartel. The one by A Smooth Guy is a buckskin stud colt. Hopefully he will help to pass on Blings greatness to his babies. |
