I am old enough to remember Maureen, Misty and Stormy, Misty's foal born in March 1962. When I was growing up every local child knew of Misty and the Beebe family. Every local was excited when the movie was released and I remember people watching it just to see if they appeared in it.

That time, sadly, has passed. Let the Beebe family move on in peace.
