A Memorial for Norma

Norma was one of several lucky mares to land at Catherine and Lynn’s beautiful farm and we are so very thankful to them for giving her such a wonderful life. Our hearts go out to them on the loss of Norma. Thank you, Catherine, for allowing us to share your words with our followers (many of whom may remember Norma as the Reserve Champion of our 2013 Trainer’s Challenge with trainer Leanna Giles):
“Today we had to say goodbye to our Norma. (Aka: E-Norma, Ab-Norma, Para-Norma, Stormin-Norma, freight train and Big Red. ) We could no longer manage her pain from arthritis. She was our herd clown, charmer of guests, a kind herd mate, she was the last of our “ original “ herd from MHARF. It is fitting that their picture is center page on the December calendar. Hard to believe they are all gone already. She brought us so much joy, we loved her so much, we will miss her forever. I hope she is up there running with Perdita, Violet, Paloma, Willow and Honey. Thank you Minnesota Hooved Animal Rescue Foundation for bringing us all of these lovely souls.”
