1984, Miami, Miami-Dade Co., FL, Obituary

The Miami Herald, (FL) - February 24, 1984

Sherrill Ward, a retired trainer who had developed one of the top thoroughbred horses of the 20th Century, died Thursday in a Hollywood nursing home. Mr. Ward, 72, was a native of Miami and saddled his first winner in 1929.

Kenny Noe Jr., longtime racing secretary for the New York Racing Association and president of Calder Race Course, said, "Sherrill Ward was one of the finest horseman that I've ever known and one of the true gentlemen in thoroughbred racing." Luther Evans, turf writer for The Miami Herald, said, "Ward was a gentleman and a gentle man." Under Mr. Ward's stewardship, Forego, owned by the Laxy F. Ranch, won the Widener Handicap in 1974 and 1975 and was named horse of the year for three consecutive years from 1974 to 1976.

Mr. Ward had retired in 1975 because of arthritis. The Daily Racing Form listed 15 of the greatest horses of the 20th Century, which included Man o' War, Citation and Forego. Mr. Ward also trained Summer Tan, which finished third in the Kentucky Derby in 1955 behind Swaps and Nashua; and Idun, which won the Columbiana in 1959 at Hialeah.

Mr. Ward once said that the man he admired the most in his life was Earnie Seiler the former executive director of the Orange Bowl. "He taught me about sportsmanship and I've never known a man who loved this town more or worked harder to help it develop." Mr. Ward was past president of the American Thoroughbred Trainer's Association and the Hall of Fame in Saratoga.

He is survived by a son, Sherrill E.; daughters, Shirley Kunkel and Sharron Blankenship; 10 grandchildren and one great- grandchild; and a sister, Mary Pickard.

Repose will be from 7 to 9 p.m. today at the Cofer Miami Shores Funeral Home, where services will be at 2 p.m. Saturday.
