Female Athlete of the Week: Dona Kay Rule Makes Triumphant Return in Calgary After Hip Surgery Dona Kay Rule finishes in the Top 4 of Pool A at the Calgary Stampede after overcoming hip surgery.

For decades Cotton Rosser has been a legend in the sport of rodeo. His name is synonymous with the great family entertainment of the Flying U, but beyond the well known exterior was a man that loved his animals, his family and entertaining generations of families and creating memories that will last them a lifetime. Cotton peacefully tipped his hat for the last time this morning, June 22, 2022. His legacy will live on through his wife Karin, children, grandchildren, and great grandchildren. Long live the King of the Cowboys, Cotton Rosser.

In lieu of flowers, the family requests that donations be made in Cotton’s memory to The Cotton Rosser Rodeo Complex at Cal Poly, The National Cowboy and Western Heritage Museum in Oklahoma City, OK, or Yuba Sutter Arts & Culture Cotton Rosser Bronze Project in Marysville, CA.

Quote of the day

BAXTER BLACK
1945 — 2022

Our world momentarily stopped turning yesterday as Baxter Black, DVM, poet, sage and lover of all things cowboy left this world surrounded by family and friends.

Baxter Black carved his initials on all of our hearts since he started writing and speaking to us in the early 1980s. On January 5, 2022, his last column was published.

He’d been under home hospice care since January, 2022, due to a progressive form of dementia and a blood leukemia.

Our hearts go out to his beautiful wife and muse, Cindy Lou and quite frankly, every single one of us who’s life he touched with his impish smile, wry wit, practical intelligence and deep doses of the bittersweet realities that come with life with horses and cows.

He was one of a kind and we were all blessed to know him.

Heartfelt condolences, Cindy Lou. Thank you for sharing him.

Thanks Jay Hodge Dodge of Hugo for the fast service! Great rodeo sponsors!
