Pauline was so special to Cindy and I...many years ago Cindy and I stopped by the farm with no notice and when we left we had bought a mini horse! That was the first of many that we bought from Pauline. Raz, Taz, Admiral, Sammy, and Cowboy are still with us and doing well. We so enjoyed bringing the minis to visit Pauline in the nursing home and seeing her face light up when she saw them! God bless you all...Clarabelle, we will be in touch....Lois

Dear Clarabelle, Willard and families,
My prayers are with you at this difficult time. I remember all the good times with her going to the Gilbertsville Auction and Trexler Game Preserve. Remember how her peacocks always attacked your Dad's cars on the lot! Now she is with Ralph and probably still fussing him about something. Love, Liz Schiebel Ramadass
