Charisma at a younger age - she must have been 4 or 5 years old. She was 6 when she moved to Ottawa. This was taken at Wal Ken Farms in Lachute. I have a blown up copy done as a poster in my basement.

When I was out visiting a horsy friend someone’s name came up in the conversation. I told my friend that I knew Mary.
I met Mary at cursillo.
Much later I found an advertisement for her as doing horse pictures. She came to Greenbelt to meet Charisma - my first horse.
She took a number of pictures both in colour and in black and white. I show these off quite often.
On my wall is a lovely black and white etching of Charisma’s head. When I took it to get it framed, they told me they would take good care of her. It does look very nice on my wall and it was nicely framed.

The portrait is dated 1990. Charisma was 21 years old then. She lived until she was 26 - quite an old lady.
