Last year, we raised $2,862.00 on my donation page.  I am humbled and blessed by all of you that helped do this.  I was able to attend the ride and see the impact that this organization has on real lives.  This year I am riding for Dalton Ausley and Ronnie Tootle.  Dalton Ausley was known in my community for having a larger than life heart.  He spent so much time helping others and being a blessing.  Dalton was the one that buried my mare, Jewel, with such thoughtful care.  He treated her like she was the most precious thing.  Dalton had a smile that was big and bright.  He is missed by everyone that knew him.  I want to thank his father, Marty, for allowing me the honor of riding for him. 

Mr. Ronnie Tootle served in Vietnam with the United States Army.  I had the privelege of seeing this gentleman and his family several times a week.  If you needed a funny story, a warm hug, or some scripture, Mr. T gladly filled the need.  He loved the Lord, his family, and his country (also, Reeses peanut butter cups!).  Sadly, he passed last year from a heart attack.  I am grateful to have known and loved him.  Thank you to the Tootle family for allowing me to ride for him.  

Thank you all for your support last year!  I look forward to being a part of this event for 2026.

God bless.
