Attributes include; mother, wife, friend, honest, passionate, determined, consummate student, competitive, direct, and often times blunt, always stimulated by love. She was fanatic of all Equestrian sports, whether watching her two daughters compete, watching horses of which she was an owner compete, or just watching the beautiful partnership between rider and horse of others. She had horses compete in The Olympics, The World Equestrian Games, The World Cup Finals, Spruce Meadows and various other high performance events throughout the world. A few of her favorite horses were "Naleida" who took Catie to the Individual and Team Gold medal in the North American Junior Young Riders Championships, Magic "BB" who helped Ali win the Gold medal at the USEF National Pony Jumper Championship, "Up Chiqui" with Kent Farrington in the saddle who were twice the US Show Jumper Horse of the Year, and"Blackfoot Mystery" who with Boyd Martin competed in Eventing at the 2016 Rio Olympics.

She is survived by her husband, Alex, her two daughters, Catherine "Catie" Cash Boone, Elizabeth "Ali" Alexander Boone; her mother, Mildred, her sister, Gayle Cash (Richard) Newton; her nephews, Patrick (Stephanie Maxwell) Newton, and Andrew (Cassie Perkins) Newtown; and three brothers, Gene Wilson (Angie) Cash Jr., Timothy "Sparky" Cash, and Clinton Cash; and sister-in-law, Caroline 'Cabby' Huger Boone, her nieces, Jennifer Boone Purviance, Caroline Boone Graham, her nephew, Hilary Johnson Boone IV.; her sister-in-law, Alyce Boone (George) Hoskins, her nieces, Dowell Hoskins Squire, and Chapin Hoskins; her sister-in-law, Elizabeth "Lizzie" Van Meter Boone.

So sorry for your loss....Tricia's presence will be so missed in our little Equestrian Club in Wellington. Her huge smile and interest in the equestrian world were such a constant every season. We loved seeing her ride by on her bicycle as we walked our little dog. She asked often about her former neighbors, my parents, now in an assisted living situation nearby. We'll miss her so much.

I am so sorry. It is hard to believe. We had some fun times on the golf course last year! I remember explaining about the new clubs called "hybrids." Tricia was very interested once I explained they were real clubs and NOT cheating!
I will miss her.

Dear Alex, Catie and Ali,
Although my interaction with your family was brief,
It came at a very special moment in time in our lives.
You were all strong and kind with a generosity of spirit
rarely encountered.
I'm thinking that Trisha had everything to do with the family I met.
Please allow me to offer my sincerest condolences to all of you at this time.

Trish and I were classmates Auburn class of 82. I liked her from day one. She was always a lady, and tuned in to the needs of others. Her petite stature never stopped her from moving mountains if necessary. And she could do it before you knew what happened!
Alex, Catie and Ali I'm very sorry for your loss. She was very special.
