Horse advocate and industry leader Hettinger Passes
In addition to Lee Tomlinson, important industry bastion John Hettinger died over the weekend:
http://news.bloodhorse.com/article/46945.htm A NYRA and JC-Grayson Trustee, Hettinger was an outspoken anti-slaughter advocate but a voice of reason in that debate: http://www.saplonline.org/Legislatio..._horses_go.htm He stepped in years ago when Fasig-Tipton was in financial peril and stabilized the situation which led to a new and extended era of success for the auction house. He founded a clearinghouse for horse charities as well which is Fasig-Tipton-managed: http://www.bluehorsecharities.org/ By every account I've heard today, he was a tremendous stalwart of the game and good guy.. RIP..
