Margie Fry, R.I.P….

Margie Fry, the wife of Gearld Fry, died this morning, February 20th, after a long battle with cancer.  Fry, of course, is the man largely credited with sparking the resurgence of Devon cattle in America both with the import of Rotokawa genetics and his crusading fervor for the breed.

With Ridge Shinn and David Schoumacher, Fry founded the North American Devon Association in 2006.  In recent years, Fry has devoted his attention to the American Herbataurus Society, an organization supporting crossing of Rotokawa bulls to other breeds.

Margie Fry was a beautiful Christian woman who lived her faith to the fullest and her life was an inspiration to all of us who knew her.
