Cooper.jpg

In Loving Memory of Cooper

Coming to us a bit later in life, Cooper quickly became an invaluable member of the FSTRA team and was a wonderful therapy horse during his time at Rohan Wood Stables. After a long battle with illness, we were saddened to announce that Cooper passed away peacefully during the fall of 2022. We know that he was loved by so many in the FSTRA community and will always be greatly missed.
