Welcome to Milliron Monday where every Monday we celebrate the legacy of Pete Smith, D.V.M., and Milliron: Abbott “Pete” Smith, D.V.M. The Biography (Monday Creek Publishing 2017). A graduate of Colorado State University and a well-known veterinarian in southeast Ohio, Dr. Smith continues to motivate and inspire.
Earlier this year, in February, I had the great privilege to meet Sandra Hess. I was looking for a content writer for my blog and was excited to share her love of horses. I talked with San (her nickname) on the phone and we connected instantly. Later that day, she sent me her bio...
"Previous horse owner, trailer rider, and 4-H horse momma with experience in trail riding with children. I have struck out upon (sans any support crew) horse-traveling trips, the first of which was a 2.5 month-long travois journey. Expert horsewoman? No. Experienced wise horsewoman? Yes. I have been a Midwife for 37 years, Organic Gardener for 40+ years. I love to read and have been an auto-didactic learner all my life."
On September 26, 2020, San passed away after a courageous battle with cancer. We never had the opportunity to read about her journey with horses, gardening, or midwifery.
For many years, San was a friend and (once) neighbor to Dr. Smith and his family. She will be missed by many. Sincere condolences to San's dear family and friends.
Have a great week ahead.
