sugar's legacy (non OES)

We had to put my daughters first pony down the night before last. She was a leopard appalossa ,a large pony almost horse size 14.1 hands. We bought her when Susan was 12 (she is now 29) She was a green pony (untrained) and my daughter wanted a bay or chestnut colored horse....It was love at first sight. She was called sugar and spice (suga for short) she carried my daughter in the show ring to get blue ribbons, she carried many a handicapped child in the special Olympics to win the blue (normandyfarms.org has her on the home page) I learned to ride English on her. Susans friends as well as mine took her in the ring. It was one of the hardest things I have ever had to do. She will be cremated and some ashes scattered on our farm and some to keep . She was so well loved by everyone. She was 25. Sugar I miss you , the barn is so empty without your nickering. Maybe an abused horse will room with embellish. It will take time. She surely made her mark on this earth. Thank you Sugar for all you gave to everyone.........

I am so sorry for you loss.

You seem to have some wonderful memories of suga and she obviously left a great legacy behind.

I hope that in time when you find a new pony who will bring as much joy and happy memories to you as suga did.

So sad for your loss, bet she is running free as the wind at the Bridge. Keep hold of the happy memories, try not to let the past few days cloud your mind.
Sugar was a therapy pony

I saw a child who couldn't walk,
sit on a horse, laugh and talk.
Then ride it through a fields of daisies
and yet could not walk unaided.
I saw a child,no legs below,
sit on a horse and make it go
through woods of green
and places he had never been
to sit and stare
except from a chair.
I saw a child who could only crawl
mount a horse and sit up tall.
Put it through degrees of paces
and laugh at the wonder on our faces. I saw a child born into strife,
take up and hold the reins of life.
and that same child was heard to say,
Thank God for showing me the way.

Walk on Sugar , Walk on
