A tragic loss to us all

Dedicated to the family of Leanne Stringer who's death leaves a big hole in our hearts.

Kaiwaka, Northland

This fundraiser is for the family of my beautiful best friend, Leanne Stringer.

Leanne tragically and suddenly passed away on Sunday, 12th January. Leanne was the light of our lives, she lived to buck the norm yet stayed humble, she made this world a better place for so many, strangers or those known to her. They say friends are the family we choose. Being chosen by Leanne was the greatest gift in my life, and when Leanne died, it was one of the worst moments.

Leanne was an inspirational woman who was a massive part of our local community. Leanne spent her life making sure everyone else had what they needed - and when it came to horses, she discovered we all needed more than we thought! She would drop everything to help a human or horse, dog or cat! Leanne was the ultimate giver, the ultimate matchy-matchy lover of horses and all things that live and breathe.

Leanne was a part of the Hakaru Pony Club, Northland Miniature Horses and many more associations. For her, seeing others succeed and grow in confidence was the best thing ever!! She never stopped sharing her 'secrets' to success with us all.

I hope that the money raised will assist the family with funeral costs and allow Peter, her loving husband and their family to live out some of her hopes and dreams - to continue her legacy which is ensuring the horses she has rescued are looked after.

We didn't know Leanne well but the Totally Horse mini fun days were legendary! Thinking of you Abbie & Peter, and praying God's peace over your hearts and minds as you journey through this next season

I never met Leanne in person only through minis. I have followed her weight loss journey with joy for her in achieving her goals for herself. It is a hard hard road but was great to see her back on a horse and out doing what she enjoyed. R.I.P Leanne and may you ride forever in the memories of your family.
