Greg French: Greg has been a good friend and supporter of the Royal Sunbeams. Not only does he volunteer
his time during visits to facilities and support us in everything we do, he built - with his own hands - a trailer !! for
us to use on our outings. Without it we would not be able to do our work. He also helped us install outdoor hot
and cold water faucets so the horses could have their baths in warm water during the colder months.
Dr. Shirley Harder, DVM
Shirley has been a backbone
of our support since the beginning. Her veterinary care has kept the horses healthy and her friendship and support have given
us the strength to keep moving forward. She has also accompanied us on our visits to Kavanagh House.
Lynn Price and Dusty Farnum
Lynn and Dusty have provided the horses with warm winter blankets
and other supplies through their generous contribution. Lynn has also been the best friend a person could have
in support of our efforts and in getting Faith through the most trying year of her life.
Signs
& More (Grandpa Paul, Tim, & John) provided us with the beautiful logos on the sides and back of our minivan.
Marla (Grandma Paul) donated some wonderful hay when the girls ran out.
Jeff Gross provided us
with the financial means to repair the brakes and air conditioning on our van and bought us new tires.
Adam and Keith Hatch were kind enough to provide the labor of repairing the brakes on our minivan.
Heidi Yang, Faith's daughter, has helped feed and care for the horses and has been gracious enough to share her
computer with Faith to get this web site up and running when Faith's computer wasn't working well. Heidi has also accompanied
us on our visits to Kavanagh House.

Steve and Victoria Eckstat (and Sarah and Matthew) were kind enough to
provide care and a place for the girls to stay while Faith & Heidi went on a college visit.
Anne
Hudson has been invaluable in the labor department. She has helped load and unload hay, build a hayshed, clean up manure,
groom the girls for outings, and help Faith think through all the problems of horse ownership.
The
family of Roy Scherer has been very supportive of our efforts and was responsible for building a fence and shelter for the
horses. Dorothy and Joe Bradley purchased the fencing materials, and they, along with Mary Kay Scherer, Tom Scherer,
and Patty Klingenberg, put the fence up in record time so that Roy could enjoy the girls' company. Mary Kay also accompanied
us on our first trip to Kavanagh House.
Bob (the Builder) Weed was our major fencing consultant
and guide.
Deb Darge took care of the horses while Faith attended the out-of-state funeral of
a friend and has been a major motivating force behind the Royal Sunbeams effort. She was the continual encouragement
that helped get Faith get this web site developed.
Thanks to Ron Crawford who helped unload
buckets of manure during the bitter cold last winter when Faith's back went out.
Thanks to Kirk
Hawkenson for helping unload hay for the winter supply.
Thank you to Laraine Davis for the wonderful
photographs of the Royal Sunbeams which appear on the Photographs page and on the Home page and for helping us on our visit
to the Hospice CARE Walk.
Faith's friends and family have been very supportive of this effort.
Thank you so much!
