I was saddened to learn last night of the passing of Ruth Paine, whom I profiled for The Dallas Morning News in 2022. I mentioned Ruth's death to my editors at The News, from which I retired in 2024, and they asked me to write Ruth's obituary, which I felt honored to do.

It was my pleasure to have written the cover story on the great Willie Nelson for the current (August/September) issue of Cowboys & Indians Magazine. I found a full stack recently at my local Barnes and Noble. (Don't worry, I didn't buy them all. 🤣)

I wanted to express my gratitude to my friend and former colleague Michael Hogue, who continues to grace The Dallas Morning News with his rare talent. In this case, he chronicles a story Burk Murchison and I cover in our Dallas Cowboys book, "Hole in the Roof."

As the co-author of "Hole in the Roof," a detailed history of the Dallas Cowboys, I urge you to read our book, whose title, yes, does have a double meaning. Enjoy!
