ABEL, Karen Brenda
February 19, 1957 - May 24, 2014
Karen passed away peacefully in her sleep on Saturday, May 24 at age 57. She is survived by her daughter Stephanie, sister Kelly (Glen) of California, mother Peggy McDonald Bienert and stepfather Eldon Bienert; stepsister Debbie Regehr (Kevan) and family, stepbrother Garry Bienert (Margie) and family. She was predeceased by her father Bruce McDonald in 1968, and by her grandparents.
In 1960 the family moved to a farm just east of Millet where they continued raising and showing Morgan horses. Following Bruce's passing, Peggy, Karen and Kelly moved to Dawnville Farms near Leduc, where with Eldon a training and Morgan breeding farm has prospered and grown. Karen trained horses and riders who showed and were successful at the highest levels, including the World Morgan Championship show at Oklahoma City, Canadian National Morgan at Regina, as well as shows in the lower Mainland B.C., the Northwestern U.S. States, and all over Alberta. She came up through the first 4-H horse programs, was active in the Morgan organizations, and into the horse judging world.
Of late she had been very active with the very young and upcoming riders and became an idol to them, taking in many shows and doing very well. Her days were very full taking care of the boarding and training horses and working with her many students young and old. Her illness of the past year slowed down these activities, but she kept on with her work as much as possible, until her sudden passing.
The Funeral Service for Karen will be held on Friday May 30 at 1:30 p.m. at Ebenezer Christian Reformed Church, 49245 Rge. Rd. 250, Leduc Co. (half mile north of Dawnville Farms)
Memorial donations may be made to the Equine Foundation of Canada, R.R. 2, 326 Dyke Rd., Falmouth, N.S. B0P 1LO or First Baptist Church, R.R. 2, Leduc, AB T9E 2X2 - See more at: http://www.legacy.com/obituaries/edmontonjournal/obituary.aspx?pid=171150640#sthash.WaVEYsSM.dpuf

HEARSAY - CUSTOMER REVIEW
ReplyDeleteAbby blossomed in 2003, when we sent her to Karen Abel at Dawnville Farms, originally with the intent to have her broke to drive. The first show was in May, she wasn't quite ready to drive, but Karen asked if I wanted to show her in hand. Abby had indicated she didn't want to show "In-Hand," but Karen & Abby clicked, and they were only defeated in 1 class in 2003.
