CMSA Members,

We are deeply saddened to hear about the passing of CMSA #6, Phil Spangenberger. Phil was a co-founder of the sport of Cowboy Mounted Shooting. He was a long time CMSA Board member, CMSA Hall of Famer, and Old West aficionado. Phil was such an instrumental part of Cowboy Mounted Shooting. He will be missed by all.

An article by Jerry Ardolino, who knew him for decades, summed Phil up perfectly: "Phil Spangenberger has no peer in the amount of knowledge he possesses about Old West history, accessories and guns of the old west. Phil Spangenberger is simply the best: bar none."

Our thoughts and prayers are with Linda and his entire family.CMSA Members,
