When did Elvis horse Rising Sun pass away?

[G-Man]

Did Elvis's horse Rising Sun live up into the 1980's? I just had never heard when his horse had passed away. Thanks alot for your help Gerald!!

I know Rising Sun was there when I was to Memphis in 1983.

I think Rising Sun was still alive when I was there in 87, but that wasn't part of the tour package I got.
