The Budweiser Clydesdales are a group of famously well bred horses used for various commercial and advertising purposes by the Budweiser brewing company. They are showcased each year at the annual Superbowl and have a running fan base of many passionate horse lovers.
One of which is Marian Roberts, an elderly 95 year-old currently in hospice care at Crossroad Hospice. Crossroad Hospice has a tradition of attempting to set up each client’s own version of a perfect dream day and then making said day come true.
For Marian Roberts, a visitation day with the Budweiser Clydesdales is just what she wanted. As a recipient of her first pony at the young age of seven, Marian has interacted and loved horses for the entirety of her life. She later become a trick rider in her teens and is to this day still very passionate about the animal she loves.
