A FAREWELL TO A GREAT LADY OF POLO INÉS GARRAHAN DE PIERES

inesgarrahandepieres-51-2016-7-111GInés Garrahan de Pieres, one of the most beloved ladies in polo, passed away at 92-years of age. She was the mother of six children, Gonzalo, Alfonso, Alvaro, Paul, Mercedes and Rosario, had 22 grand-children and 15 great-grandchildren.

Inés was a member of a large polo family. She married Alvaro “Bary” Pieres, who died in September 2012. Together they formed their own great polo family, which includes some of the all-time greatest players, such as Gonzalo, Alfonso, Alvaro and Paul, and most recently, her grandsons. Inés, who loved polo, was a constant presence at the tournaments, mostly during the Triple Crown, cheering on her grandsons.

The staff at PoloLine send the Pieres family much love and support during this very sad time. Our thoughts and prayers are with you all.
