A while back I sent a batch of home-made dog biscuits to Gatogordo's widow Jen, as Gato was such a dog lover. She reports that the dogs loved them, and that with the help of her three kids and the support of friends, she has found the strength to make it through the loss.

I miss gato. I wish I had stopped by and met him the few times I drove thru east Texas.

I miss him as well.I'll be the 1st to admit that he was an opinionated old curmudgeon,but he was a joy to talk to + be around.We would get together when he was passing through to visit his kids at U.T.

Yeah, was just thinking about him yesterday.
