In the afterlife of art and literature, in the sweet by and by, I imagine retired Texas Ranger Gus McRae on the porch of the celestial ranch house teasing Ramona the Pest and whistling for that old dog Ribsy to run the pigs out of the yard. Two literary giants, Beverly Cleary and Larry McMurtry, died on the same day, March 25, 2021. Cleary was 104.

McMurtry was 84. The Pulitzer Prize-winner penned dozens of books, including âThe Last Picture Show,â âTerms of Endearment,â and the greatest western adventure ever written, âLonesome Dove.â ....
