Hi List
Sorry to hear of Alex's passing, what a nice lady.  My story:
A few
years back, some of us (Mid-Atlanticans or is it Midatlantians?) got together
to do a draft clinic in southern VA.  I took my oldest gelding, he was
supposed to be a "fine" example, he did well, let ALL the beginners go thru
the cones with a log again, and again, and again.  I didn't tell them
that he was going along himself, we could have let him go, he would have woven
thru those cones just fine, but he was a real confidence builder.Anyway,
we were indoors doing harness fitting, and he is not a solid citizen as a
model horse (work is where it's at Why are we just STANDING here?)
A lot
of folks were trying to drape harness on and off him, and suddenly he stopped
fidgeting, became a model Fjord, doing great, I was so proud!  I went to his
offside and found Alex giving him a massage and soothing him, he just LOVED
it, you could tell that she really had a hand with horses, and she did love
the Fjords.  HE was great for all the rest of the "harness hanging", we could
do as long as we wanted as long as Alex didn't stop!!
 
Sigh..
It's
hard to lose friends.

Sandra, thank you so much for posting this!  I had corresponded with Alex
for a time about her treatment options.  She seemed like a wonderful person.
This article is an inspiring description of a well-lived life.

This page no longer exists, but if you "google"  "Alex Wind" there are 
several references and an Obituary available.


So sorry to hear she lost her brave battle with cancer, I would have liked 
to have known her.
