This is horrible, I don't have the words to express my sorrow. He was another of the best.

I'm sorry that I did not know Preacher Red, but the death of Lightning McCoy is devastating news to Kitty Kat and I.  He will be sorely missed.

A big man with an even bigger heart, a passion for life not surpassed by many.
That is how I remember Lightning.  To his family and my cowboy friends I share your sadness.
May he rest in peace.

This news is like a punch to the heart. His kind won't be seen again.
To say he was a friend doesn't cover it well enough.

Devastating doesn't do to my heart over hearing of his passing.  It is worse for me to loose the big guy.  Happy trails in your afterlife Lightning.

It is so sad to hear of the passing of Lightning McCoy. He was a gentle giant of a man who always had a big smile and a kind word. He will be missed by all who knew him. Rest in peace my friend.

Sad news Lightning Mccoy  was always  a gentleman  every time we  got together, always enjoyed  his conversation and his effort to be sharply dressed.
We lost a great one, condolences  to his family.

I'm going to miss Lighting. He was a true cowboy at heart and always was one that I looked up to.

What a sad day indeed.  He spoke to me about his life and what a great man he was.  MY thoughts echo all that has been said already.

Last year Preacher Red and now another Great man Lighting McCoy.  Both of please look down on us and keep us shooting straight.

Truly an outstanding person and a great Pard.

He exemplifies the "Spirit of the Game".

To greener pastures my friend.

I cannot tell you how much I will miss his ever-present smile and easy laugh. When I first saw this the Roger Miller song started playing in my head, ‘Hoppy’s Gone’. Maybe because it was written about another great Cowboy who always smiled and was quick to laugh.

Lightning was larger than life and yet a very humble man
He is home now
