In her early life, Jeri Sue Arrighi was trained in Equitation on five-gaited horses, and as a teenager she bought her first Tennessee Walking Horse. Her love for this breed lasted decades as she owned them close to 60 years. She rode Tennessee Walking Horses on the trail and showed performance horses throughout Texas, Louisiana, Mississippi and, of course, Tennessee.
Jeri Sue was a graduate of McNeese University where she obtained degrees in Animal Sciences and Farm Management. She had a Masters in Veterinarian Physiology from Texas A & M. While her career was in the oil and gas industry, her love was always Tennessee Walking Horses. While residing in Texas, she served as a representative from her state with the Tennessee Walking Horse Breeders and Exhibitor Association.
She had a passion for researching breeding lineages to select the right stallions to match with the right mares. Her Four Seasons Farm produced some top shelf show horses including; Doral, My Rock Star, Entitled To A Secret, She’s A Secret Lineman, Stronger, Dixie Preacher, Lady Ties The Blues and others.
She is survived by her husband Kevin Arrighi, to whom The Scoop sends our deepest sympathies.
