“Coy and I were both members of Tau Kappa Epsilon at Baylor. We would spend weekends watching westerns, drinking beer, and enjoying each other's company. He stayed at my parent's place in Richardson, TX and I stayed at his parent's place in Hobbs, NM. We didn't agree on religion, politics, or much of anything else, but in those days, it didn't matter. It was about character, respect, and enjoyment. I'm shocked and sorry so hear of his passing. -Dan C Ryan [email protected]”
