C'est avec une grande tristesse que nous avons appris la disparition de Ruth Rogers.

Très impliquée dans le monde du Poney Connemara. Qui ne l'a pas croisée au cours d'un show, appareil photo au poing !

Toutes nos pensées vont à sa famille

Sincères condoléances

Midland Connemara Pony Breeders 9 h ·

PRO Ruth Rogers Sadly Passes Away The Connemara community and particularly the Midlands Breeders Group are saddened at the sudden passing of our PRO Ruth Rogers last night (Tuesday 2nd July) Ruth has been involved with the Connemara pony for many years and has been actively involved with the Midlands Connemara Breeders group for over 15 years. During her time she officiated at every capacity and for the last number of years was our official PRO and spokesperson. Ruth had not only a love for the Connemara pony but a passionate affection towards Connemara. She will be remembered for her photographic expertise throughout Ireland and her many invaluable articles and presentations. She will not only be sadly missed by her family but also everyone who knew her through the Connemara pony.

Very sad news today. I knew Ruth as a very kind and hospitable lady with a great interest in the Connemara pony. She was a promotor of the breed by (among other things) writing articles, taking photographs and working in the committee for the Midland Connemara Pony breeders. She will be missed by all of us who knew her.
