What an exquisite piece of writing and remembrance. Everyone should hope to be so fondly remembered. Ya-ta-Hey, Deece.

I do not recall how I stumbled onto your blog, but it is always entertaining and thought-provoking. This piece got my attention as soon as you mentioned Dead Horse Mountain, as my good friend John Heal had just returned from Marathon over Easter weekend for a friend's memorial. Since we love the Trans Pecos region and Marathon in particular, I was intrigued. We just returned from 4 nights at The Wilson House at The Gage and John and I exchanged our experiences. We were also there to support The French Co. Grocer and their fund raising. Needless to say, this piece and then your tribute to James Gaston filled in the story for me and now I understand why John travelled to Marathon to join in the memorial with you and others. Thank you for these posts - Ya-ta-Hey.....
