It is with heavy hearts that we share with you the passing of Mr. Eugene Carter, Jr.<\/p>\n

If you crossed Gene\u2019s path at the Kentucky Horse Park, we’re sure you left knowing this. Gene deeply loved his wife, family and \u201cthe good lord upstairs.\u201d He loved working at the Kentucky Horse Park, the horses he cared for over the years, and the friends he worked with each day. He loved meeting new people and telling his story.<\/p>\n

Gene made a lasting impression on so many in his lifetime, including all of us at the Kentucky Horse Park. <\/span><\/p>\n

\n

We ask for respect and privacy for his family in the days ahead.<\/p>\n

Gene’s story can be found here:<\/p>\n
