The Tardee Tradition
1994 - 2011 5 time World Champion and Reserve World Champion
Condolences to Alecia Oberholtzer and her family on the loss of The Tardee Tradition. Tardee was Euthanized on 12/13/2011 due to a long fight with Laminitis. Tardee had multiple World Titles including AQHA WC, PHBA WC, and Congress Champion. He was owned by Alecia Oberholtzer. Tardee has left 1 fantastic Palomino Colt, who Alecia hopes will follow in his father's steps in and out of the ring. His last 2 babies are due in 2012. Tardee has sired 45 foals who have earned over 133 points with some of them are still showing. Tardee will be greatly missed, he was one of those studs, that was a pleasure to handle and be around.
