Definitely don’t worry about how much… hell, you can send me a $5 bill if you like. Every little bit helps, and this is all about being a group effort.
I want to help. Mr. Wings and I will donate. Tell us where to send a check.

I’m in- what a great idea, Heidi.
Let me know where to send a check. I know she is smiling down at us right now, wondering what all the fuss is about. I really hope she knew how very much she inspired people, and how very much she will be missed.

Count me in ! We all need to celebrate the life of a great horseperson who knew how to deal with the big " C " with optimism and a sense of humor.
Is there someone in her family who will be able to enjoy her horse or will he be able to find another loving home ?

Count us in as well. Mr. MGR and Baron the new GSP puppy to.
Kathy would smile at us scurrying around like this.
Live life to the fullest.

Winston Churchill: <BLOCKQUOTE class=“ip-ubbcode-quote”><font size="-1">quote:</font><HR>In My Early Life he wrote: “And here I say to parents, especially to wealthy parents, ‘Don’t give your son money, give him horses.’ No one ever came to grief - except honourable grief - through riding horses. No hour of life is lost that is spent in the saddle. Young men have often been ruined through owning horses, or through backing horses, but never through riding them; unless of course they break their necks, which, taken at a gallop, is a very good death to die.”

I think that is a fabulous quote to use.

House hunting on Long Island…we’re looking at cardboard boxes…since that’s all we can afford in a nice area…
Perhaps if we have enough money to do a full page ad, we could do a half page add instead, and use the rest of the money towards a theraputic riding program, or a cancer center?? Just an idea…
ONE MORE MONTH!!!!!!!!!
OMG OMG ONE MORE MONTH!!!!!!!!
Serendipity, Heidi just emailed me saying much the same thing.
We will probably have to establish a designated fund-collector (most likely me, I guess ) in the US.
Paypal would be a good idea, but doesn’t Paypal take a cut if you get more than $100 or so in payments in a given time period? I have an account as well, but I would hate to see a chunk of people’s donations taken out as an administrative fee…
Maybe we need one Canadian and one US fund-collector?
Limited funds at the moment, but count me in… I think giving the “excess” donations to the ACS or a horse-related charity in her memory is a beautiful idea.
I just read that Cactuskate (who I always read as “Cactus Skate”) shares my birthday, and somehow that depresses me a little more.

I’m in!
Heidi, I was just in the process of checking that out, cause i thought the same thing. It looks like it was scanned in at an OK res. The top picture I think would come out pretty well, but i’d have to check with Billy to be certain.
I just looked for my COTH rate card (yes I’m a geek) and i lost it in the mood, whoops MOVE (Calling Dr. Freud, is Dr. Freud in the house)…along with my reps name. Erin, can you point me in the right direction with that one when the time comes?

Count me in, too. This is a great group!
It is a most fitting memorial for such a cool person.
I think we can do it, no problem!
Hi Heidi:
Please count me in.
But I saw this-

If whatever leftover lunch money I have can help, well then, I’ve e-mailed you.
