I met Jody and Fred and all of their incredible animals over 20 years ago when we brought a pair of miniature horses from them. They were fun and sassy and beyond that inspirational in their love for each other and their passion for their farm animals, better known as their pets. I have not spoken to them in many years as I grew up and did less with the Mini Horse Club but I will miss them and I am sending all the love and warmth I can to the family and other friends.
