In the final minutes, Steagall read Blue Roan and the Kid. A Classic about a kid who's trying to tame a horse, with his father looking on.

Years ago, Mr. Big Food eulogized a colleague and Friend-- a fellow Texan-- by quoting Steagall:
There's one empty cot in the bunkhouseThere's a saddle that nobody ridesOne empty place at the tableThe remuda is five horses shy We turned his string out to pastureHe'll never ride em no moreWe buried him out on the hillside last SundayAnother good cowboys gone home.
