In 2019, two Old West Saviors stood out for their dedication to the preservation of our Western heritage.

Passion Wins The Day

It’s probably obvious from my writing, but I love people who are passionate about what they’re doing. That’s why writing this column on Old West Saviors is such a joy, because I get to meet people all year who have often moved heaven and earth to reach their goals.

Every single column every year reflects that kind of passion and dedication and hardknocks and stumbles and perseverance. So, when my editors asked me to pick my favorite column of 2019, I knew a choice was impossible.

Here’s as close as I got: Two saviors who stand out as pure delights in a long list of delights.
