Over the decades there have been many people passing thru our ranch. Some sit and stay for awhile, most move on to share stories with their loved ones about their time on a Buffalo and yak ranch. And then there are those few that arrive and are still active either on the ranch or in our lives. Our dear friend Dan showed up one day and stayed, hanging with Alan and doing fun stuff. Eventually he and his wife Shannon moved to their own property down the road and soon after their son was born. And they are still a part of the ranch. Last week Dan was in the excavator spending 2 days with Alan fixing irrigation and then over the weekend off with Loretta to Portland to pick up tractor parts and help her with a project.
Tragically on Saturday Dan experienced a life changing event when the helicopter he was in went down in Prineville. He is currently in ICU in critical condition. I am attaching the go fund me link for you to read and share, Shannon’s words explain the situation much better. I’m asking our customers, friends and friends we haven’t met to please consider contributing. Alan and I thank you in advance for any prayers, light and love you can send to this lovely family.
