This was on FB today. Terrel was a nephew of Steve (Soapweed) and Carol Moreland.
Our hearts are with them all.

Rodeo family prayers for the heartbroken family and friends of Nebraska timed-event cowboy Terrel Vineyard, who headed to Heaven at 27 after being struck by lightning while horseback with a rope in his hand last Wednesday, June 21. Terrel's horse Dose died with him.
Terrel roped calves and team roped. Also, a lifelong ranch cowboy, he moved back home to the family ranch in 2017, and has worked side by side with his dad, Shawn—just like old times in Terrel's childhood—ever since. In 2020, Terrel met the love of his life, Stacey, and also fell in love with her three little girls, Maddie, Aubree and Blayke. Terrel and Stacey were newlyweds, after getting married on February 10 earlier this year.
Terrel is survived by Stacey and those darling little girls, Maddie, Aubree and Blayke; his mom and dad, Nancy and Shawn Vineyard; his big sister, Tori Vineyard Scantling; her husband, Donny; and their kids, Cedar and JD.
Terrel's memorial service will be held today, Tuesday, June 27 at 10:30 a.m. at the Garden County Fairgrounds Arena in Lewellen, with Pastor Matt Waitley of the New Hope Church in Ogallala officiating. Attendees are encouraged to come horseback, as Terrel's family would love to fill that arena with cowboy and cowgirl friends on their horses.
Burial will follow the service at the Antelope Valley Cemetery near Oshkosh. A memorial account has been set up for Stacey Vineyard at the Nebraska State Bank, PO Box 260, Oshkosh, NE 69154.

Stories like these are really sad to hear. Van Newkirk herefords had a big post on FB. Feel for his family thats terrible
 
I am humbled, grateful and amazed at the turnout of this community and the huge scope of friends. Over 150 riders and overflowing capacity of the fairground seating. Pastor Waitley gave an excellent message. ( I Believe it can be live-streamed, if anyone cares to hear it)
He will be terribly missed. Thank you, FH for posting.

What a wonderful turnout. Thanks for sharing the photo, Peach.
So sorry for the loss of a loved one.
 
Delivering the Last Loop
by MC

Among the hills and the country boasting soapweed
Lightening struck, killed a young man and his steed
Why does heaven gain one of the earths young best
Maybe we shall understand when we are laid to rest

He departed this earth with his lariat loop in hand
On the ranch, not rodeo, with folks filling the stand
The good Lord will let him finish delivering his loop in heaven
I know because tis written for cowboys, Mathew chapter seven
