Sincerest Condolences Following Passing of Horseman Rick Skelly

Everyone at The Equine Chronicle would like to extend our sincerest condolences to the family and friends of Rick Skelly following his recent passing this week. As said so succinctly by Jody Quiram, this great horseman touched many lives.

“Took a moment to find this picture on Gordyville’s Facebook page to pay tribute to one of the greatest horseman to grace our facility. I cannot think of anyone who had more great hunter under saddle horses and all of my favorites. Our staff loved him and he always made me grin when he showed up. He always had our back. This picture is from the 25th celebration we had for Gordyville and he didn’t miss it. RIP Mr Rick Skelly and our deepest sympathy to Ellen Jost, friends, and family.”

Our thoughts and prayers go out to his family during this difficult time.
