💖 A successful harness racehorse, racing over 100 times before his retirement. 

💖 Served in the Sitting Tall riding program for children with disabilities. 

💖 Qualified for the Michigan State 4H Competition in the Contesting Division. 

💖 Completed hundreds of miles of trails including the Shore-to-Shore ride from Lake Huron to Lake Michigan. 

💖 Was the first horseback ride for countless friends and their children. 

💖 Most of all, he was my best friend. 💗
