"Prayer For My Love"

I ask a special favor, Lord,
For one I held so dear,
For one who meant so much to me,
For one I wish was here.
I know he's there in Heaven, Lord,
If any horse should be,
He was always extra special,
He was always good to me.
Please give him green pastures, Lord,
Now that his work is done,
Where he can romp, and play, and graze,
Under your eternal sun. I know that he will be happy,
He's not so hard to please,
And if it's not too much trouble,
Some extra big shade trees.
As I pray Lord, I can see him,
Trotting gently across the sky,
His deep bay coat is gleaming,
And it hurts to say goodbye.
I know none like him, Lord,
Will ever come again,
Please tell him that I miss him,
I thank you Lord.
Amen..

We never owned this grand old horse, but he graced our pastures for the last four years of his life. This photo was taken in 1997 at the age of 28. He sired six foals for us, the last, a colt and fillly born in 1998. He remained active and vigorous to the end, and his dignity and elegance will be long remembered. Fadzad sired many beautiful foals in his long life.

"Meca" too, only spent the end of her life on our farm, for two years she was a wonderful friend and foal "sitter". She was a full sister to our foundation sire Fadjurs Domecq and we feel fortunate to have her beautiful daughter "Mecas Reflection" and grandson "Zobeyni Il Kamar" to carry on her family.
Meca was the dam of five foals.

One of our foundation mares and "first horse" for our niece Treva. A beloved family member and friend. She left many descendants with us through her four daughters- RIMROCKS EBANA, TMT JASARAH (see below), T MT CENTURIANA and TMT REBECQA She was the dam of seven foals in all, two colts and five fillies.

"Sarah" was our first foal and our "inspiration" to infuse Egyptian lines into our domestic stock. In her short life she produced four foals, two colts and her two daughters JASALEAH, in Texas and JANACQI who carries on the family line for her dam, in grand fashion.
