Star was a sorrel grade mare. She was an Arabian cross bought by my grandfather and aunt when she was a weanling.
She went on to win my aunt many, many trophies in speed events. She later became our horse when we moved out of town
to an acreage. She continued to bring home purples with us. Star was tragically taken from us one night during
a severe storm. She was struck by lightning and killed. She is, and always will be, missed and remembered.
She is buried in my parent's pasture on the hillside where she liked to stand.
