At her passing, a cloud passed across the face of the sun.
Out on her beloved Wheeler County Farm, the coyote's song will become more mournful and the sun and stars will shine less brightly. Those left behind to mourn her loss know that Jake Allen waits for her at Heaven's Gate, fiddle in hand, playing her favortie tune as her bright and free spirit dances accross the blue Texas sky to meet him.
She will be missed.
