Davis. This annual tradition took place at Courtyards
Knoxville location, 801 E Inskip Drive Knoxville, TN 37918

Gene has spent his lifetime taking care of his farm, raising
and breaking horses. Not only was this farm his livelihood,
but his life’s passion. No person can have a meaningful
conversation with Gene without quickly discovering his
fervent spirit and extensive knowledge of animals and
country life. As Gene has spent the last year adjusting to
life at The Courtyards, it is evident that he still longs for this
component of his life.

It was The Courtyards wish that Gene be able to Tennessee Walking Horse I’m Dixie Blue, owned by Kara
