    Our home is the residence of over 60 horses who found their way here through a variety of ways. In addition to horses, many people have also found help and purpose here as well. Of these people, Earl had one of the greatest impacts on us as a family and to many horses who "needed" his touch. One especially was his namesake "Earl" the horse. The two of them hada bond unlike any we've ever witnessed. Earl,you have left a void but filled one in Heaven.

    Ginny; It's tragic that as the world celebrates the birth of the Christ child, you have to battle with, and accept the loss of your life long partner and friend. Please accept my family's deepest sympathy for your loss. Although the years have separated us, as I grow older I often find myself thinking of each of my Dads brothers,their family's, and the few times we shared. It's truly a shame that the 5 brothers let life and it's trials, get between them. Back then, if they only realized how fragile and short life is, maybe things would be much different today. Please share my thoughts and concern for Earl's passing with your children and their families. Take comfort that Earl's memory will be eternal in each of us. And that we are all, even if only in some small way, better for knowing him. And, if I may ask, please, put my dad in your and your family's prayers, as he to is going through a very tough time of his own. These are difficult times for all of us. Rest assured you, Earl, and your family are in our prayers and thoughts.
