Default "A horse is worth more then riches" ... a tribute to my own E

The most noble beast is the most beautiful ...
His long mane and tail adorn and beautify him.
Pedro Garcia Conde, 1685


Emperador La Estrella



The horse is God's gift to mankind.
Arabian proverb






We will miss you and your unforgettable spirit...

Emperador La Estrella.

March 6, 1981 - November 28, 2008

May you always run free with the wind in gently rolling green pastures and watch over your girls and keep your sons in line.

Your special legacy lives on in your special daughters ....


Mariposa de Gracia, youngest 2006 E daughter at Gracewood


Marietta de Gracia, 2006 E daughter at Gracewood


Espirita de Gracia, 2005 E daughter at Gracewood


La Sombra, 1998 E daughter (here with a heart to heart with Dad)

and your handsome sons:


Precision de Gracia, 2007 youngest E son at Gracewood


Magico de Gracia, 2006 E son at Gracewood


Extasis de Gracia aka "Brio", 2005 E son

and all your other sons and daughters in the US and Canada, and your Gracewood girlfriends whom you loved to watch over and talk to everyday: Ladybug, Marita, and Diplomacia.

Rest ol' grand one ... my Emperador. To know you was to be in awe of you all your special qualities.

XOXO... Lynn and your Gracewood Family

Very sorry to hear you lost him, Lynn... I remember how happy and proud you were when you first got him. What a grand thing to have several of his offspring!

Oh Lynn! I can't believe the grand old boy is gone! He was a gem and seemed timeless. I am so glad you and he found each other in his golden years. He was so happy watching over all his girls. My prayers are with you as I know how hard this must be. Hugs from Marisa and Brio too.
