[RC] southern lightning strikes - Ridecamp GuestPlease Reply to: Cathryn Whitaker cwhithare@xxxxxxxxxxxxx or ridecamp@xxxxxxxxxxxxx ========================================== This is just a note of condolence to my long-time friend Peggy Clark of the SE district. She called yesterday and told me she buried her beloved Bear(Connemara stallion), her daughter's starting endurance horse BLM Raven, and a broodmare who has left an ofphan foal. All due to one bold of lightning. Both Peggy and Bear competed against all odds for several years. No one thought she could be competetive on a pony and let alone a stallion. Bear had begun to suffer some COPD in the past year and has been retired but still was producing beautiful babies, including the above mentioned orphan. The first time I saw Mary Katherine, she was little more than a baby aboard the fat and beautiful Raven. Raven carried that little girl many a safe mile and I am deeply saddened at her loss. She was the one I told Peggy to bequeath me in the case of her(Peggy's) demise. We all suffer losses of horses but 3 in one night is a great burden. Hope all of you will rally around her. She is the ride manager for Oconee WMA also and has given many years to endurance and it's betterment. Love you Peggy. The sun will come out tomorrow.
