Tributes to Der Radetzky:

I just looked at your website and saw the news about Der Radetsky!  I know you have been swamped with letters of sympathy, but I am so sorry for your loss.  My 2000 gelding, Cenwyn, is absolutely wonderful - gentle and beautiful.  I desperately want a broodmare with his bloodlines, and I guess I just thought he would be here forever!  Once again, all my sympathy.  

Catherine

I just went to your website to see your ad for Katiane and saw that your white stallion had died.  I was shocked!  He is the sire of my now 14yr old Han/TB gelding who looks just like him and what a sweetheart!!  I even named him for his wonderful personality.   "De Bonne Aire" means of good temperament.   My Condolonces, 

Angela  

 I am so sorry to hear about Der Radetzky.  He has left a wonderful legacy.  I have especially heard what a wonderful temperament his offspring have -- certainly that is the case with Dixie.

I was very sorry to hear about your recent loss of Der Radetzky.  He always personified "Hanoverian" to me.  A big, handsome horse with a great mind and all kinds of athletic ability.  It's good to hear that you have frozen semen available for the future.  You'll be able to remember him every day in all those grays growing up in your pastures.

I was so saddened to hear about Der Radetzky.  You just take for granted he would always be 
around. He acted like he had an age exemption. I feel so lucky to have a few of his babies. The
weekend of the Callin clinic he looked so happy out in his paddock. He was always a
gentleman and that is rare for a stallion. He will always be my favorite .. so galant, so graceful, so beautiful. 
He was wonderful. ...Thank you for sharing him with us. He will be missed.

I was shocked when I went to your web page today and saw that Der Radetzky had passed away. I had been meaning to write you about our mare by him, Raaz. After having two foals for us the last couple of years, I started back in riding her. 

My endurance horse is off for this year in foal and I needed something to collect some miles on. I took Raaz out of the pasture 3 wks before our first ride ...figure we would just go to finish...she came in Top 10 on the 25 mile ride, I took her several weeks  later to a 30 mile CTR...she came in 4th, a week after her sire's passing away she went to her first  50 mile ride and came in Top Ten. 
She is a super mare, she has had lovely well minded foals for us.
We send you our sympathies, he was a wonderful sire. 

Leah

I was browsing your website, and so sorry to learn that Riverdance's grandfather has passed on.  What a glorious horse he was, and I must say his talent and gentle temperament are a part of his wonderful granddaughter.  Our progress has been slow but steady -- but all is going well and in a positive direction, and I plan on showing her later this summer.  She is such a sweetheart, and very patient with me, as my riding skills try to catch up with hers!     Again, I am sorry to learn of your loss with Der Radetzky.  I am sure he is greatly missed. 

Chrissie

I am so sorry to hear of your loss. I just signed a contract to purchase a Der Radetzky weanling on Saturday, (Dacryon, from Linda Woltz in Ohio.) I think he will be everything that I could want, so... Der Radetzky will live on in the dreams of others.  

Jan
I just saw the news of Der R passing yesterday.  I'm so sorry. What a loss his personality will be - not only for you, but for the breed too... we always wish that they never have to go.
I have donated to the UFlorida Veterinary Teaching Hospital in his name.

 I heard this weekend of the passing of Der Radetzky and wanted you to know how sorry I am to hear  such news.  My riding horse is a 6 y.o. Radetzky out of a TB mare and he is my favorite horse.  He is the kindest animal I have ever been around, there's simply not a mean bone in the horse's body.  And in that respect I think he's much like his sire.  Der Radetzky's legacy lives on thru my horse and others.  He was a very special animal. 
Sincerely, 
Charleen 
I'm so sorry that I didn't come to see him one more time.  He was our favorite and we are sorry for your loss.  As bad as we feel, I'm sure you feel like someone in your family is gone.   Your tribute to him on your website was beautiful. 
Dolly
That is the saddest story I have ever heard. My mouth literally dropped open when I read your e-mail. I do so hope that Tess is bred. She will be able to carry on his legacy in one of his foals. He was so wonderful and I know he will be remembered each and every day.  
Shell
I just heard about Der Radetzky and I want to wish my deepest sympathy for your loss. I am really enjoying  my foal out of him. She has such a wonderful attitude and is a quick learner.  She stands 16.1/2 hds at just over 2 years old.  Again, I'm very sorry for your loss. He will be sadly missed.
