Sage was Patti's first horse and they had a very special connection. Patti's intent was always to buy Sage back and bring him to Hawaii to retire on the lush island grass. Patti finally found time to make the phone call to the current owners only to find that Sage had been put down last year.
The following is a memoriam off of their website. I also stole to picture from there.
It was with great sadness that we received the news that Sage passed away on December 4, 2008. Sage, also known as Total Eclipse, belonged to India Graham. We offer India our deepest sympathy. Sage has been a schoolmaster extraordinaire at KMC Farm for the past many years.
He first came to us through Gilien Pearson to become Meredith Kahn's horse. After teaching Meredith for several years, he was sold to Jamie Kalff. Jamie was able to learn countless lessons from Sage and excelled in the equitation arena. He was then sponsored by Trevor Smith, during which time he found his passion for jumpers. For the last year or so he belonged to India Graham. We are so sorry that India's time with Sage has been cut short. Sage has touched the hearts of everyone at our barn with his gentle disposition and will to please. He will be greatly missed.
Sage, you are greatly missed!
You will run free forever.
I love you sis!
