Checking up on Catskill Steve (Monday)

MY DEEPEST SYMPATHY TO SOFIA SCHIFANO AND THE ENTIRE SCHIFANO FAMILY ON THE PASSING OF JOHN. IN MY ENTIRE LIFE, I OWNED ONE STANDARDBRED IN PARTNERSHIP WITH 5 OTHERS INCLUDING JOHN, WHO TRAINED OUR PACER. IT WAS A MOST ENJOYABLE EXPERIENCE AND ONE THAT I WILL REMEMBER FOREVER. JOHN WAS A MOST LIKABLE INDIVIDUAL WHO KNEW HIS HORSES.

R.I.P JOHN.
