Farewell Heavy Metal
| | Midland Horse Heavy Metal dedicated his life to our Horse
Program. Heavy left us this summer, his passing couldn't have been more
peaceful. For those of you who didn't know Heavy Metal, he was not just any horse, he was the herd leader. A tall noble gray Thoroughbred/Arab cross. He was born in 1972 making him 37! He will be
forever missed and loved. |
