Today we said goodbye to a legend 💔💔 Words truly cannot express what this horse meant to us as a family. He has been with us for a decade and over half of that was in his retirement. We promised him that we would care for him and love him until his last breath. Today our love was tested, today our love to him was letting go….
If It Should Be
If it should be that I grow weak
And pain should keep me from my sleep.
Then you must do what must be done.
For this last battle can’t be won
You will be sad I understand.
But don’t let grief then stay your hand
For this day more than all the rest.
Your love for me must stand the test
We've had so many happy years.
What is to come can hold no fears
You don't want me to suffer so
The time has come please let me go
Take me where my needs theyll tend
But please stay with me til the end
To hold me close and speak to me
Until my eyes no longer see
I know in time you will agree.
It was a kindness done for me
Although my tail its last has waved.
From pain and suffering I’m saved
Please do not grieve that it was you
Who had this painful thing to do
Weve been so close us two through the years
Dont let your heart hold any tears -
He will forever be in our hearts. The pain we are feeling right now is the price we pay to have known a love like his. 5 Time World Grand Champion of Champions, 2 time Pony of The Decade, a show record to long to list, but most importantly part of our family ❤️❤️.
