My sincere condolences to Cowboy´s family! I´ve listened to over 5 yrs (hours & hours) of speaker phone conversations between Cowboy and his friend, Stephen Stelly; jokes, serious advice and just checking in "How are you doing?" I feel blessed to have met Cowboy; a man that loved his wife, Sherry & family! Never met a hands-on man that worked as hard on Saturdays & Sundays as weekdays. Rest in pease, Cowboy!
