Texas Longhorns
Story
Description: A rancher, Curtis Langtry, rejects his two sons
because of his rigid adherence to his, tragically misguided,
rabid, fundamentalist religious beliefs. He turns his back on
them when they need him the most. They're sent to Vietnam,
where the youngest, Seth Quee, is killed his first week after arrival.
Curtis has no idea what happened to his other son. The oldest
boy, Vincent, marrys and changes his last name to 'Longhorn' in
honor of his little brother who was given the nickname "The Longhorn,"
for obvious reasons. Vince has a son he names Casey. He is
the very image of Vince's younger brother.
The
boy grows up in a small, rural ranching community in Southern
California. His mother
dies from cancer when he's fourteen. Casey and his dad
gravitate to each other for mutual support from the grief they share
from their loss. On his eighteenth birthday, his dad reveals
to him everything about his past and tells Casey he has a grandfather
out there somewhere in Texas. It's a story of love, honor,
brotherhood, faith, repentance, compassion, forgiveness and hope.
