The Rocky Mountain Horse Association is deeply saddened to share the news of the recent passing of founding member, Dr. David Swan.<\/p>\n
David played an integral role in the conception and development of the organization as a not-for-profit breed registry in 1986 and worked\u00a0diligently, as an outspoken advocate for the breed, to establish and promote this organization for the protection and preservation of the\u00a0Rocky Mountain Horse breed.<\/p>\n
David served as an RMHA Board Member, as Vice President, Treasurer and Member At Large, and on many Committees of the RMHA, most\u00a0recently as a member of the Genetics Committee.

We extend our heartfelt condolences to his wife, Rea, his family, and his many friends who will miss him dearly. Private services will be held\u00a0for his family and closest friends.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
