(What a surprise today... Goes to show we have to enjoy each day as it comes, never knowing when it will be our last.)
Rich -I met you a couple of times at the Circle G and enjoyed your sense of humor and quick smile. God Bless your family, and tell all those other western folk you meet at that golden gate "hello" for all of us.... we will see you again someday. For now, you will be missed.

Oh! you are so right Vicky. We just never know when our last days on earth will be. It really makes me re-evaluate my life. We have lost so many of our ES friends lately. They must be having quite a trail ride up there!
My condolences to the family.

The measure of a man is what he is (not what he owns) and the positive impact he makes on others. Rich, you were a Top Hand. You will be missed.
Til we meet again..

Rich had such an easy-going attitude. I will miss him on our trail rides and get-togethers. He was alway willing and ready to help others whenever he could.
He will be missed.
My prayers and thoughts go out to his family during this time of sadness.

KC Jones was living life to it's fullest. He was doing what he enjoyed most. You all should have seen him ride that last ride. He and his horse were showing us all a great partnership. The jumps, the spins, the great water crossing....etc. It was all very wonderful to watch. He did finish that race a true winner. He put his horse into the trailer and was suppose to run up the hill to the finish line here on earth......but instead.......ran up the hill to those beautiful golden gates where he will peacefully live with his father above and ALL his horse buddies that have gone before us. Yes....it was a sad day to watch for us.......but I hope everyone keeps their chins up......because........yes..........someday......we will be able to join Rich again......and live forever with him and our beautiful animals there in that wonderful green pasture made only for us horse people.
Yes......we will all dearly miss Rich right now.....but, I can't wait to someday join that great cowboy above. His life, his soul, his spirit and his memory will continue to uplift us.
May the Lord comfort and give peace to all his family and friends that mourn his earthly loss.
Take care Rich,
Your horse buddy,
Greg
