What a sad story, but I can't think of a better way
to go. [Here's a shot from
The Kerrville Daily Times and here's one from

Yahoo photo.]
I can think of no better way to go: 101 years old, doing what you love to do. Plus, the name of your favourite horse was Dr Pepper. How can you beat that?
"Leave the wide open spaces and free fresh air to the West, where one can take an early morning gallop across dew-drenched fields, lie down to sleep beneath the star-twinkling sky, only to be awakened by the crowing of a lone rooster in the far distance"
I couldn't agree more.
I bet she saddled her own horse.
