Chuck & Beverly


Shiner. When horse lover Chuck married Beverly in 1954, they purchased a ranch, built it up, and set up a home.


They had four children. Times were hard and to bring in more income, they bought two regis-


tered mares and a stallion, with a plan to raise colts. The good ones were sold, and the bad ones went down the road. As the children grew up, they took


over more of the care of the ranch and Chuck and Beverly spent their time with their first love — training, breeding, and selling horses.


Chuck passed away in 2003 from Lou Gehrig’s disease, but Beverly is still running the ranch and the horse busi- ness with her children.


Steve and Phyllis Stanger. Steve was born a cowboy. His father, Reed, worked on ranches around Jackson Hole while Steve was growing up, and then moved to the Idaho Falls area when Steve started high school. Phyllis was a farmer’s daughter and


grew up just a couple of miles from the Stangers. They married in 1959 and have four children. After Steve worked for a period as a horse trainer in El Cajon, California, the couple returned to Idaho in 1967 and settled on a forty-acre farm just north of Idaho Falls.
