KENNY BURGIN 

 

Kenny has been around horses his whole life.  As a youngster he used to sit on a fence rail feeding the neighbor horses sugar cubes that he bought with money he made by washing neighbor's cars.  Later in life Kenny had a very successful horse breeding ranch: his life-long dream of Paints & Quarter horses from the top lines in the country.  
Sadly, a family tragedy ended all of that and years later, thankfully, he stumbled into saving the wilds, becoming the co-founder of this rescue, there was never a doubt to him, it was his calling and he was on board to try and save as many lives as possible.

"We can't save them all, but we can save one life at a time"  ~Kenny

TAMMY LYNN  

A little about me - I was raised up a city girl in Vancouver, B.C.  Canada with a country heart ( my daddy always sang hello country bumpkin  to me ). In 2003 I met my husband and migrated clear across the country  to Florida, but this girls heart missed my momma & the mountains.  In 2016 we moved back across the country & bought our home in Aeneas  Valley. Along the way meeting my neighbors, I was introduced to Shelly  Hoffman ( our deceased honorary board member ), I remember telling her I  wanted to learn all about farming, her answer was you have to learn  hands on, stop by anytime lol. And I did just that, spent the better  part of 2 years with her learning as much as she could teach me. In our  many outings together we would stop by the horse rescue frequently. I  would listen to conversations intently & learn as much as I could on  our visits. I not only gained knowledge, but some really amazing  friendships began too.

TINA KOCAN

 

I  fell in love with horses when I was little, like most young girls. My  love for all animals has grown with getting older. I had the privilege  to help train horses in my early 20’s. I have always had animals around  me, they seem to like to have me around.
I  met Trina and Kenny 3 years ago when my neighbor introduced me to them,  and I ever since I have been calling them family.  I get to socialize  the horses at the horse rescue, which my husband can tell you I enjoy  very much. 

Two  years ago when we had the 15 Wild mustangs from Nevada they all came in  scared. They left being able to be loved on, and would run up to you  for attention. They even recognized my vehicles when I drove up and  would get excited to see me. 

I’ve  been told I can’t have my own horse because I would never be at the  rescue helping out. Which is probably true (LOL). They give me a scene  of peace in this world and I hope I give them the same feeling.

AUTUMN SUNDOWN

 

 Hi, I'm Autumn Sundown.  I am a Mother of 4 great children,   a Cosmetologist by trade and a lifelong avid animal lover! I consider myself lucky to live in the beautiful Pacific Northwest where my family moved with my father's job as a member of the United States Navy. I grew up and went to school with Trina so I've known her for many years. I am so proud of her endeavour to help horses in need. And I am very proud to support the White Phantom Horse Rescue as an honorary member/advisory role.

 IN LOVING MEMORY of Shelly Hoffman

 

October 11, 1955 -  March 30, 2020

Honorary Board Member and dear friend 

Shelly is why this rescue came together...in the beginning... a single wild horse a couple years ago...

Every horse, every bale of hay, every single thing will always remind us of her wonderful kindness...

Shelly was of few words unless  asked and then she always shared all she knew.  If she didn't know the answer, she figured it wasn't a necessity to know. 

Shelly always gave all she had in heart and soul. 

She was loving and caring, honest and truthful.  

She is what we will always aspire to be.
