General Assembly 2020 and members annual autumn meeting
Due to covid-19 there was no stallion show at Nordfjordeid in May. For the same reason, the general assembly of Norges Fjordhestlag was postponed and held on the 9th of October, at Skei, Jølster. The rest of the weekend hosted the annual “Autumn meeting”, with talks and discussions on fjord horse related topics.

Brian Jensen passed into the Light 11 June 2020.
There was a memorial service this summer in Lumby BC, Canada. Since travel is restricted, only family and close friends attended.
He is survived by his wife Ursula and his two children and their families.
What follows is the last article that Brian wrote and submitted to FjHI.
There are few words to describe Brian: wonderful, sensitive, and kind. He was a mentor and a friend to many of us. We miss him.
From the heart,
Rory Miller
NFHR Board Member

Note from his Norwegian friends :
We are very sorry to learn that Brian Jensen no longer is among us.
Brian will among his friends in Norway, be remembered for his interest and engagement for the fjord horse breed, both as breeder and user of the fjord horses.
Brian visited the fjord horse show at Nordfjordeid several times, and he participated in the judges conferences, and also was part of the judge team like on this picture from the young horse evaluation show at Breim.
Brian Jensen will be remembered for his passion for the fjord horse breed and his great horsemanship, and he will be missed among his colleges in many countries.
