Passing of a Legend
Siemers shared today, "It is with heavy hearts that we say goodbye to the legendary Tri-Day Ashlyn. Ashlyn EX-96 14* 2E GMD DOM has left a tremendous legacy in her 18 years of life. She was family, and she was always happy to show herself off to whoever wanted to see her. Ashlyn was Legend and she knew it! She will be greatly missed in the industry and at our farm. Ashlyn has made a remarkable impact on our herd, as she leaves our farm behind 75 daughters."
