The
grand dame of my little farm, Victoria was queen of everything
right up until the day she crossed over the rainbow bridge.
She was a maternal sibling to the incomparable Immortal Command,
and enjoyed a long and successful career as a very versatile
show horse. After winning the Connecticut Nutmeg Futurity
as a youngster, Victoria brought home blue ribbons in English
Pleasure, Pleasure Driving, Western Pleasure and even Classic
Pleasure. She and I made our last show ring appearance together
at the 1998 Mother Lode Show, placing in the top three in
each of her classes at the dignified age of 21 years old.
I
spent all my junior and senior high school summers with Bunny
and Phyllis Wiley, who were my "other family". They
were like my parents and they made it possible for me to have
Torrie. Bunny was losing a long battle with diabetes and wanted
to see Torrie at one more show, so we took her to the Deerfield
Fair (Torrie was five months pregnant with her first foal)
and she won an open ladies pleasure (in western tack) out
of 28, was 2nd behind Shirley Talman and Orcland Society Miss
in western pleasure, and was 2nd in Morgan Pleasure Driving
and 2nd In Hand, making quite a splash in Bunny's honor. She
came home with me and never left.

BECAUSE YOU
LOVED ME [by Diane Warren]
- For all those
times you stood by me
- For all the
truth that you made me see
- For al the
joy you brought to my life
- For all the
wrong that you made right
- For every
dream you made come true
- For all the
love I found in you
- I'll be forever
thankful baby
- You're the
one who held me up
- Never let
me fall
- You're the
one who saw me through it all
- You were
my strength when I was weak
- You were
my voice when I couldn't speak
- You were
my eyes when I couldn't see
- You saw the
best there was in me
- Lifted me
up when I couldn't reach
- You gave
me faith 'cause you believed
- I'm everything
I am because you loved me
- You gave
me wings and made me fly
- You touched
my hand I could touch the sky
- I lost my
faith, you gave it back to me
- You said
no star was out of reach
- You stood
by me and I stood tall
- I had your
love I had it all
- I'm grateful
for each day you gave me
- Maybe I don't
know that much
- But I know
this much is true
- I was blessed
because I was loved by you
- You were
always there for me
- The tender
wind that carried me
- A light in
the dark shining your love into my life
- You've been
my inspiration
- Through the
lies you were the truth
- My world
is a better place because of you
-
- I'm everything
I am
- Because you
loved me.
