A tribute to Ranger: Richard the lionheart, our beloved horse

---

From the beginning, Ranger was strong, beautiful, with an adventurous spirit that made every day with him a blessing.

 Ranger changed the people who loved him. He taught patience, bravery, gentleness.  His name now lives on in the ranch he inspired, but his real legacy is written in the memories, tears, and gratitude of the humans who were fortunate enough to call him theirs.

 His adventures were many and memorable. From traveling to Colorado on an elk hunt to confidently leading trail rides along the Platter Flats trails by Lake Texoma, Ranger stepped into every task with courage and curiosity, always giving his whole heart to whatever was asked of him. 

 Yet the truest measure of his life was not in the miles he covered but in the trust he offered. When you were blessed enough to earn that trust, you knew it; he showed his love in small, consistent ways—soft eyes, a nudge, a quiet willingness to stand by your side—that wrapped around your heart and stayed there forever.  RIP our sweet boy.
