The breakaway world has lost one fierce competitor, Kari Lynn Dell passed away Aug 14th. Kari always brought her “A” game to each rodeo she entered. It didn’t matter if she was on her good rope horse or a colt, she was determined to get the calf caught and succeeded at it. Kari Lynn won Season Leader Awards, Canadian Championships, and roped at the Canadian Finals Breakaway Event at CFR last fall. Kari was passionate about breakaway roping and was always willing to offer her help. She initiated and sponsored the LBAW Rookie Award for the CSPRA. Kari Lynn will be missed by all.
