| A Celebration Of Life In memory of Gerald "Jerry" Ellis Dec. 30, 1956 - Nov. 25, 2008 |
| Thank you to everyone that came to honor Jerry. Jerry touch so many people in many different ways. There was alot of laughter and tears. Jerry was looking down and enjoying every bit of it. In almost 30 years as a professional trainer, my wonderful husband earned many trophies and ribbons in reining competitions. But he was always proudest when his students took home the honors. For Jerry, showing horses was about having fun, and he always had a smile, a joke or a word of encouragement for an amateur or young. To all his friends, family, to all those he coached, to the Paint Horse and Reining community THANK YOU for our love and support at this sad time. Jerry always said, "When times get hard, put your head down and get busy." I will do just that in carrying on his dreams and plans for us. Kimberly Ellis |
