One of the funniest, brilliant, truly western characters of this generation. I'm glad he went fairly fast and didn't linger. But oh how I will miss Mr. Black. Rest well compadre!!!!
That one cracked me up too.Yep, very fitting tribute. Any of you remember him talking about a junior high girls basketball game? I still laugh about that analogy!
From what I read it was leukemia and a combination of dementia. But that was just online stuff and no guarantee of accuracy.In that tribute last night they talked with Red Steagall. Red had been a friend of Baxter's for many years. He said that for the last 3 years Baxter would have difficulty talking when Red called him. Makes me wonder if he had some sort of throat cancer or similar ailment.
That is what I heard and read. It makes me sad when anyone gets dementia, especially someone of Baxter's talent and age. A great loss for the ranching community.From what I read it was leukemia and a combination of dementia. But that was just online stuff and no guarantee of accuracy.
