Krull Broker Elegance Laid to Rest (1/23/06)

Today was a very sad day at Budjon, as we laid Elegance to rest.
She was born August 3, 1993 and has had one of the most unbelievable 12 and a half years of any Holstein cow's life. Unfortunately,  she was starting to show severe signs of her previously diagnosed cancer, and it was in her best interest for us to make her more comfortable. We are truly honored and humbled to be a part of what we think of as the Elegance Legacy. While the life she lived may be no longer...the legacy she has built will continue for eternity.

Today, we remember this incredible individual that put us on the map.....
