"Bouncer"

3 year old ApHC gelding

Owners: Chad and Heather Hines

Life Celebrated March 12, 2003 to April 12, 2006




With heavy heart, we write this memorial for you, Bouncer. You were special from the minute you were born. You truly earned your registered name - Remarkable One. From two, mostly AQHA parents, you came out with a ton of chrome, a huge hip blanket, and even sported a blue eye. We spent three special years hauling and showing you. We were able to prove to the skeptical horse world that it was possible to show and show well an HYPP double positive horse.

It is with mixed feelings that we report, it was not HYPP that took your life, but something all horse owners' dread. It was a twist in your colon that finally ended your days on this earth, not the death sentence we and others anticipated. Even up until the last moments of your life, we can honestly say, HYPP was never a factor. We beat that monkey, but we were no match for what had happened to you internally.

We're so sorry you had to leave us so soon, our friend. You were a good boy for us. Thank you. May you gallop with angels.

We will always love and miss you,
Heather, Darian, and Chad
