Over the past few years I have had the great opportunity to house some absolutely incredible birds that belong to my good friend Joey Z in North Carolina. Joey and I have been a great friends for many years and a few days ago he and I were discussing the birds I have here in the loft. Joey made the generous decision to donate a few of his birds to our Late Son McCabe's Memorial Scholarship Fund. For those of you who may not know three years ago we lost our oldest Son McCabe unexpectedly at the young age of 20 years old. Soon after his passing we started the "McCabe Garfield Memorial Scholarship Fund". Over the past three years we have had the great opportunity to help several young kids achieve their dreams of attending College or starting their own herd of livestock. McCabe loved all things pigeons and any type of livestock. He loved our farm and knew how to raise good livestock. We miss him each day so much but with this Scholarship we find peace in being able to help others follow their dreams just as he was able to do. We thank Joey from the bottom of our hearts for these very kind donations.
Up for auction is 22-JFL-2342 "Joey" Grizzle Cock bird. This incredible pigeon came from the loft of Joey and Kevin Jones in Texas and is a 1/2 sibling to three incredible birds including "Cookies and Cream" who was the 1st Ace Pigeon of the 2020 Texas Center Winter OLR. He is also a half sibling to "Lucky" who was the 1st Ace Grizzle at the Lucky 17 OLR. These are just two of them. What I would ask is that each of you study this pedigree close so you can see for yourselfs just how incredibly well bred Joey really is. He is a very special pigeon!!!
I want to thank each of you so much for looking over our auctions for this week. We are so grateful for Joey Z's generosity and hope that you all will be able to find something with these birds you can use and breed winners with. All the best!! Garfield Bros Loft.
