In the fall of 1986, Linda Eder Colquitt was looking for a 4-H dairy goat project for her son, Jon, that would not compete with mother's Toggenburgs.  A local Southern California FFA Saanen herd was selling out, so the family went to look over the offerings and came away with a dry yearling, Coles Cee Bar Ranch Maple. 

Maple was a correct yearling with excellent feet and legs.  She was bred shortly thereafter to Longden Acres MS Maxim, a correct young buck bred and owned by Nancy Lake  (Longden Acres) of  Norco, California. Stacy's dam Jenifer  (GCH Colquitt's Jenifer *M - 91 EEEE) and a buck were born the following spring.

 Jenifer wasn't too impressive as a kid and only placed in the middle of the classes at the couple of shows they went to.  But as a dry yearling, Jenifer started to show her promise, developing into a powerful young doe, and as a milker quickly finished her Championship at club shows and fairs, often going Best Doe in Show.

Her first breeding was to a young, unproven buck,  Miss Willa's Nero Wolfe owned by Nancy Lake. The breeding was won in a  club show raffle.   Nero Wolfe  was sired by *B Sartyr Doctor D who in his turn is a son of ++*B Companeros Voice of Reason and GCH  Sartyr Sunshine Funny Girl.  The dam of Nero Wolfe was CH Miss Willa's Miss Marple 5-05 87 VEVV, a daughter or *B Sartyr Sunshine Ethan Edward. 

In the spring of 1989, Jenifer gave birth to a buck and a doe.  The doe was Stacy and the buck was Wolfman Jack (+*B Colquitt's Wolfman Jack).

 Being large and correct, Stacy showed well as a kid. As a two year old she Linear Appraised 90 VEEE (2-02), and easily finished her championship with two legs being earned as Best Doe in Show. In the 1990-92 Southern California show seasons she was 13 times GCH and 7 times Best in Show. 

Unfortunately Stacy's breeding life was short.  There were then undiagnosed local deficiency problems (copper) that probably lead to her breeding difficulties.  She last freshened as a three year old with *B Colquitt's Director FS 92 EEE, owned by Carol Mann of Old English Saanens, Chino Hills, California. Director was sired by +*B Saanendoah Friendly Persuasion (past #2 Saanen buck on the USDA Sire Summary). Director has been a very popular buck in Southern California, producing very large, correct does with capacious udders to match.

Most Saanen breeders are familiar with the legacy of Stacy's littermate brother, Wolfman Jack, owned by Judy Morrison (Cherrypines Saanens) and Joyce Lazzaro (Saanendoah). Other closely related Saanens of note are *B Colquitt's Jacob (full brother), and maternal half brother and grandson +* B Eder's Friendly Sennsation owned by David & Teena Spear (Acres of Goats). Sennsation was sired by Stacy's son Director.  A Sennsation daughter, Circle S Farm Arlene, was Reserve National Champion and Best Udder at the 1998 ADGA National Show, and his daughters and granddaughters were part of both the first place Acres of Goats Dairy Herd and second place Produce of Dam shown by David and Tina Spears.
