    Unhappy RIP Aristos B May,1982- August, 2010

    It breaks my heart to report that he's in a bad way today and will soon be put down. More details later. I just can't type anymore. I'm with him now and he's quiet and comfortable. Will someone please help me to cross post in Sport Horse Breeding?

    UPDATE:
    Aristos B crossed The Bridge late this afternoon. His was a very peaceful passing and he was surrounded by family as he took his last breaths. He was ready even though I was not and his grace in passing helped ease my pain. Our farm will never be the same without him, but we sure were lucky to have him for the very long time that we did!
    Godspeed, Old Friend.
