Thistle, her dam, belonged to another and was not shown. She was a very correctly put together doe with a picture perfect udder. Her granddam, Sanstorms Roc Solita 3*M had an udder of enviable proportions and correctness.

Sigourney has been to two National Shows. She placed 3rd behind Rishona and Hope in a most superlative class of 5 & 6-year-olds in 2003. The next year she was 8th in her class.

This spring following a difficult delivery of triplets sired by Willow Run GB Juan Carlos, Sigourney had a hysterectomy. The doeling JC Siphronia was 5th place Jr Kid at 2008 National Show. Sigourney is still able to genetically influence our herd through her daughter, CH JC Siphronia 4-02 91 EEEE; son, JLS Sullivan 5-03 91 EEEE, and granddaughters CH JCS Sheriann 3-03 91 EEEE, and CH Sullivan's Stasit 6-04 92 EEEE.
