UPDATE: October 17, 2012–“It was heartbreaking not to save but three horses but the good news is
these are out of the woods with the smoke damage,” says MaryAnne, who owns the farm with her husband, Greg. “There is silent
auction auction at SW Reining futurity this week, and they are still
taking donations an account with PayPal, www.paypal.com–the account is greghallreining.com. Also there is an account setup at First State Bank in Gainesville Texas. We appreciate any and all help.”

GoHorseShow is sad to report the loss of eight horses in a barn fire at Greg and MaryAnne Willingham Hall’s farm located in Gainesville, Texas.
“You people amaze me,” says MaryAnne Willingham Hall on her Facebook page. “A huge thanks to Joan Schroeder and Jeannie Team. They came when the fire settled with the backhoe and worked until it was done last night with the help of the Rorhbough family and buried the sweet souls. RIP.. but their is still concern with some smoke inhalation with the few that made it out. Please please pray for them.”
Greg Hall has been training reining horses for over 20 years and he is also a NRHA judge. We will update everyone where people will be able to donate money to help out the family as soon as we receive the information. Condolences to everyone during this difficult time.
