Lewis Wiley, a respected horseman, cattle farmer, and long-time Fauquier County, Va., resident, died Aug. 11 at age 86 at his family’s Gordonsdale Farm in The Plains, Va.
Gordonsdale campaigned numerous horses including steeplechaser Canyon Road (pictured), who was multiple stakes placed over timber for trainer Chris Kolb. Wiley lived at the farm, which his parents began in 1965, for more than half a century.
The Wiley Family continues to be an NSA supporter and sponsors the James L. Wiley maiden race at the Middleburg Spring Races at Glenwood Park each spring. Click here to read the complete obituary and tribute: https://www.fauquiernow.com/…/article_c0160be6-5e33…
