In loving memory, forever in our hearts . . . Catherine Sutton
In loving memory, forever in our hearts . . . Catherine Sutton
VADA has lost a very dear friend and amazing woman ... Catherine Sutton.
She was unstoppable! Loved dressage, her farm, and her students.
Catherine will be missed by so many. They broke the mold.
Catherine was a stalwart supporter of VADA-CH, always available to help,
an undefeatable putter-up of dressage arenas. Always helpful, full of ideas and plans. She has coached many of our members
and has helped them on their dressage journey. (She rode her own horse to 4th level). She has been a great companion
on many adventures, (ask me about the USDF instructors exam in GA), was always good for a laugh or helping hand, often both at the same time
