Respect paid

People listen at a memorial celebration of life for Bubba Egbert May 26 at the Ridge Riders Rodeo Arena. Egbert, a highly respected rancher and Lake Roosevelt Raider football head coach, died in an accident on his ranch May 5. A crowd of about 500 people attended, including those pictured here and many more in the grandstands and around the facility. On page 3, Justus Caudell, a teacher Egbert recruited as an assistant coach, gives his perspective on Bubba Egbert and his approach to life: do something good every day.
