Frenchmans Quarter Horses teamed up with Open Box Rafter Ranch for their annual Quarter Horse production sale held in Rapid City on Sept. 8, 2018. John and Lis Hollman are continuing the legacy of the Frenchmans Quarter Horses founded by Lis’s mother, Frances Loiseau. With Lis and John wanting to slow down a bit, they offered a few more mares than usual that were very readily accepted.
