BAEN - In Memory

Jimbo was a happy horse. He loved his applesauce every night at dinner time. He loved to run around in the arena bucking & farting with his friends Pearl & Lil Red. Jimbo was everything I wanted in a horse, and then some. He loved people, & loved to be loved on. Jimbo would have been 25yrs on May 6th. He will be missed....We Love You Jimbo. The Curry Family

Durk D. April 19, 2001- Jan 30, 2007
Durk was the embodiment of a lifelong dream! I truly never looked at any other horse after he came into my life. He was 'it' for me. We went through the highest highs to the lowest lows together as friends. Though his life wasn't long, the time we spent was time that I'll never forget and time that taught me so much. He instilled a love of the Friesian breed and an appreciation for cherishing each day with our beloved animals as you really never know how long that time will be. Betsy Sherman

This is Simon and my Grandmother. Both have recently passed away. They will be forever loved and missed. Shannon

R.I.P. My Hero (aka Porky) 1983-January 21, 2008
I stood by your side that night just like you had stood by me for 7 years. You were my best friend. You were always there for me. You never gave up. I will never forget you. There will always be a special place in my heart just for you.

"George" aka, "Georgie" a 33yr Arab Bay Gelding made an impact on every he met. He gave so much love to those around him and forgave those who hurt him. He will always remembered with a huge amount of love. He finally came to his peaceful end on November 26th 2008 with the help of UC Davis with his best friends at his side, Meaghan, John, Christine & Shannon. Thank you George for what you gave us..... I miss you every moment of every day. Save me a place in Heaven :-)

Triampourlas aka "Hot Rod" passed on Dec 25, 2008. I cannot express how much I enjoyed sharing 7 of your 16 years. After almost losing you last spring, I cherished each step we had since then. Thank you for one more dressage show and one more gallop down Limantour Beach. Thank you for being stupid and showing me how to just have fun and for teaching me the true meaning of being "brave". I will miss sharing you with Ian and our great trail rides at Woodward. I know you are galloping across that great big beach in the sky. I miss you. I love you.

In Memory to a wonderful friend and mother of a cherished baby... "Fancy" a gorgeous Paint Mare was laid to rest on December 26th, 2008 after a harsh battle with Pigeon fever which led to liver failure. It is with great sadness that her loving owner, Laura, out of love and respect for her loving friend and companion had her put down so that she could run among the stars and once again regain her regal stance. She will be missed and her loss is felt by many. Here is a picture of her beautiful colt she gave us.

TOTAL TEMPO 1989 ~ 2007 Our beloved off-track Thoroughbred, Tempo, led an extraordinary life: 61 starts in 7 years on the track winning $300K, then re-trained as a Grand Prix jumper in southern California, and finally, Tempo came to us in Napa Valley, where he won countless blue ribbons in the Equitation, Medals and H/J arena. All heart-and-try, Tempo lived life to the fullest, right until the end, when he was taken from us too soon, at the age of 18. Rest in peace, beloved friend.

Breezy was a very special horse who was a member of our family for over 28 yrs. He is shown giving a little neighborhood girl her first ride. He was an exceptional teacher of many students, always showing great kindness and patience . Breezy passed this past year and we were fortunate to be able to bury him beside his best friend Mousie, in the pasture where they spent happy days under the big trees. Beside Breezy in the photo is Joey, a homeless dog who now lives with us. Covet your animal friends, they are the best friends you will ever have. Jill Clausen.
