One if the hardest posts I have ever written.
After 10 fun, loving and just simply amazing years together, with the heaviest if hearts I did goodbye to my old friend on Thursday night.
Never a sick or sorry day despite his years and still looking great, he laid down and told me to let him go. Only the day before he was out bucking like a devil!
I spent a perfect hour laid quietly beside him before the deed was done - he was in no pain, just very, very tired.
The yard is just too quiet now, don't think it will ever be the same
I am left with his two amazing daughters Aanyarah (Nazika) and Rashara (Rohara Faberge) who will carry on his name here in time.
Rest well old man, miss you forever xx

| So very sad, but he had a peaceful and loving end to a life full of love and happiness, and that is the best we can ask for our old friends. Heartfelt sympathy. xx |

| So sorry for your loss, it is good to know that he told you it was time. I'm trying to prepare my friend for the goodbye that I fear is getting closer and I keep saying she'll know. Run free Rashid xx |
Everyone in my life brings me happiness, some by arriving others by leaving. |
