Gay Tribute


Here is our first Morgan, Gay Tribute 28853 [Gay Commander x Jaklin], with my daughter Meg. I took this picture in October 1981. Trib is 6 years old. He was 14.1h & 850 lbs. Meg showed him saddleseat, hunt seat on the flat & over fences, western, dressage & driving. She trail rode him & did parades. He was the second Morgan in Minnesota to win a bronze medallion in open showing, & Meg earned an AMHI scholarship with his help. We purchased him that April, & owned him until his death in September 1997. He got us into Morgans, and every Morgan we've owned since is descended from his half-sister, Mikk's Gay Glady 026023 [Gay Commander x Flit], whom we purchased because we wanted more Morgans like Trib.
