SAFE received a $100 donation from Jenn and Debbie H in memory of a horse named Generally A Brat, who passed away recently at the age of 23. I contacted his owner about this donation, and she had this to say about Brat:

Generally A Brat

Generally A Brat

Brat was my once in a lifetime horse. I purchased him in 1992 as a four year old, he was 23 when he passed away. The two of us learned how to jump together, and virtually won everything we set out to win. He was a registered quarter horse and competed at the AQHA World Show on many occasions always in the ribbons. I also showed him on the open hunter/jumper circuit winning several division championships together. I retired him from the show ring at the age of 16 because he had earned his AQHA Performance Championship which is a lifetime achievement award. 

He took all the new horses and riders on trail rides when they were too nervous to do it on their own. He taught a little girl with severe diabetes how to ride and gain confidence around horses. He was a fabulous athlete, good looking and had the biggest, kindest heart of any horse I have ever known. I currently have a mare and two of her babies I have raised, but there will never be another Brat.

It was very nice of Jenn and Deb to donate to your organization on his behalf. It is like Brat to help other horses even in his passing.

Yours, Keli Covin, Five C Farms 

Thank you to Jenn and Debbie for this donation, and to Keli for sharing Brat’s story. Rest in Peace, Brat.
