We now have funeral arrangements for AQHA Judge Chris Kozlowski of Galt,
California who passed away July 25. His mother, Lea Kozlowski-Risso
passed away last month. Chris is survived by his wife, Annalise and children Jaimin and Ciara.
There will be a Celebration of Life, Monday August 6th, at 12 noon at
Murieta Equestrian Park, 7200 Lone Pine Drive, Rancho Murieta, CA. Everyone is welcome.
The Kozlowski Family Memorial Fund has been set up with Eldorado
Savings Bank, PO Box 1340, Rancho Murieta, CA 95683 (916-354-2661).
“In my opinion, Chris was one of AQHA’s best judges,” AQHA Executive Director of Judges, Alex Ross told GoHorseShow. “I feel sure the majority of AQHA owners and exhibitors felt the same way. His longtime involvement in the quarter horse industry provided him with the diversified background to recognize and reward excellence in a variety of classes. Chris was a true horseman and he will be missed.”
Fellow NRHA and AQHA judge and friend Mario Boisjoli says that he is deeply saddened by the passing of Chris.
“Chris was a true gentleman as well as great horseman,” Mario says. “I remember when he came to my house and tutored me before I took my AQHA Judges Test. After I became an AQHA Judge, I was honored when Chris and his wife Anna-Lise hired me to judge for them. I have had the great pleasure to learn from him, judge with him and show under him as an exhibitor. He was always a class act. He will be missed greatly.”
