The Quarter horse industry lost a great


gentleman, with the recent loss of long time OQHA supporter Ron McMann. Ron and his wife of 53 years Joan, are well known on the Quarter Horse Circuit for their countless hours of volunteer work and dedicated support of the industry. Ron was inducted into the OQHA Hall of Fame in 2007. We would like to extend our deepest condo- lences to Joan, Kelly and Bill.


Ron was a great man and will be greatly missed by many. Continued from Page 24

Her focus for Cryderman Training Stables is to pre- pare horses and their exhibitors for national and international competition. While the majority of the horse/rider combinations that she coaches show American Quarter Horse circuits, she also coaches several dressage and jump- ing horses/riders. Cryderman has trav- elled and shared her knowledge with riders who have committed to furthering their skills, and given many clinics rang- ing from first time riders to numerous youth and amateurs who became AQHA Superior Award winners, AQHA Cham- pions, AQHA Versatility Champions, All-American Congress and AQHA World Show finalists. Cryderman’s daughter, Jessie Godin was a gold- medalist member of Team Canada while competing at the Youth World Cup hosted by Australia in 2004. Cryderman served as President of the Thunder Bay Quarter Horse Club for 15 years and as President of the North Superior Quarter Horse Council for 10 years.
