"Riding a horse is not a gentle hobby, to be picked up and laid down like a game of solitaire. It is a grand passion. It seizes a person whole and, once it has done so, he will have to accept that his life will be radically changed." 

-- Ralph Waldo Emerson

He was always a gentleman and gave everything he had to whatever we asked of him. There will truly never be another horse like him. We will miss him forever.
