James Loveless died June 14th, while his self-proclaimed “second-favorite” son, Rocky, was headed home from Arizona to see him in the hospital. Rocky said he began to write about his dad’s love of fried foods, steaks and a certain brand of beer after the funeral director told him to just talk about his father.
“He would say, ‘Yep. That's Rocky. He wrote it.’ But he would also probably not even remember any of those things. Maybe except for the Busch and the room temperature Busch and the prime rib and the T-bone.”
