Re: [RC] A Great Mare Has Passed.... - Carolyn Loedeman
Susan,
I am sorry to hear of Fleetara's passing, I
remember a super run off between my mare In His Image(29 years old) and
your mare at the Spots and Dishes ride in 84 I believe, what a mare she
was. Rainbow bridge will be crowded for us both when our time comes.
Love and hugs and much sympathy, Carolyn Loedeman
This morning at 11:30, I sent HCC Fleetara to the Rainbow
Bridge. She was almost 31 years young and had been getting progressively
worse with Cushings for 5 years.
She spent the last part of her life on a 43 acre farm with her
best friend, Elite, and 6 goats -- a very happy, contented mare. When
she went down this morning and was unable to rise, Elite and the goats made a
circle around her until the vet arrived with the injection.
She carried me more than 5,000 AERC miles and countless
Competitive miles -- and gave me three beautiful foals. I miss her
terribly and can't wait to see her again...
