Death Notice

Tom Hull - LANA Board Member and Registrar of Pedigrees
March 29, 1948 - Nov. 26, 2008

“We are sad to report the passing of one of our Directors. Tom Hull was an absolute treasure for those of us in the Lipizzan horse community. He gave of himself and of his time with good spirits, integrity, and a sense of fun and adventure. He was devoted to compiling accurate pedigrees, with endless patience in investigating the confusing and sometimes contradictory international records, and he created a comprehensive data base to share with all Lipizzan owners. We will miss his booming laugh, his sweet smile, and his warmth. Months ago, Tom and Mel told his fellow Lipizzan Board members that he was ill, but he continued his activities with his usual good spirits, even participating in our annual meeting less than 2 weeks ago. No one can replace him in our small community; he was unique. Our thoughts are with Mel as we mourn the loss of Tom.”

- Dr. Delphi Toth, Board Member, Lipizzan Association of North America

Notice of Suspension

Regretfully the LANA Board announces that Connie Michelletti of Carrousel Farm of Sublimity, Oregon has been suspended because of lack of compliance with registration, DNA and transfers procedures. Despite repeated requests to cure inadequate paperwork (and in many cases no paperwork), third party purchasers have been unable to register their horses. At this point the third party purchasers are notified to pursue other legal remedies until such time as the paperwork and evidence of DNA testing has been provided to the purchasers to register their horses.

Announcements

November 2008 -- Updates on the LANA consolidation.
