September 1982 was a tragic time for he and his family.
(Prince) Rainier Grimaldi
Yes, Equus!
Rainier Grimaldi, (Prince Rainer III of Monaco!)
Eguus -- you make one guess and it's the right one! This is becoming a FREQUENT occurrence. Good for you but would you consider doing this just a little sooner so that we wouldn't have to make so many guesses??? <sigh>

It takes me forever to think of even a couple of names.
You're right on that!
Where are you Equus!!!
Kudos and bouquets of fine lilies to Equus, plus of course a nice juicy apple.
We all knew the name...it is the jump in thinking...vgood set of initials and good nabbing.
A nice apple? Oh, I get it. Yes! ... and some carrots!
I wouldn't have had a clue without the clue.
Okay....
