Today marks the 13th anniversary of Dub's death, which really, marks a celebration of his life. My father will have passed away six years ago in February, and I understand that kind of loss -- it's hard. But these kind of dates, while sad, give us a moment to reflect on the lives that they did have, the legacy they left behind.
That's really what this project is about, it's a celebration of life, a celebration of the small moments that are oft forgotten, but remembered by those who were there, who respected them, and were participants in that memory. The legacy lives on in the lives that they impact, their friends, families, and admirers. You can see Dub's final work, Maverick, on TNT this Saturday at 1:30 P.M.
Take today as a reminder of the kind of life you want to live, and look to Dub's example -- do everything as much as you can, when you can, while you can.

"That Guy: The Legacy of Dub Taylor" is a ground-breaking documentary about Walter Clarence "Dub" Taylor, a Western film actor from Augusta, Ga. Taylor is credited with acting in more than 500 films and television shows. However, most who've seen Taylor on film never remember his name after the credits roll. The well-respected character actor, with an active, six-decade career, never played a lead role in a major motion picture.
