George Eben Badgett George Eben Badgett, age 65, of Miles City died on Sunday, June 15, 2008 at the Holy Rosary Health Center of an apparent heart attack, after a great day of doing what he loved, attending a rodeo. Mr. Badgett was born in Miles City, Mont., on May 20, 1943, the son of Kirk and Lora (Daily) Badgett. He attended country grade school at Willow Crossing Country School and attended high school in Miles City. He didn’t finish high school in order to pursue his life as a stockman, cowboy and horseman. Later in life, he proudly attained his GED and continued his education. Mr. Badgett married Judy Gatlin in Broadus, Mont., on July 7, 1965. To this union, two children were born: George Jay and Wendy. They ranched on Otter Creek until 1997. During this time, he also worked 25 years with Peabody Coal at Colstrip. Mr. Badgett had many passions which he pursued throughout his lifetime. Rodeo was his first love, as he competed for 35 years. At various stages in his career, he entered every event, but excelled in bareback riding and calf roping. He always had a life-long interest in airplanes, becoming a pilot as a young man. Later in life, this evolved into building and flying remote control airplanes. He loved fishing, and many people have fond memories of trips taken with him. Mr. Badgett made his own saddles and tack, as well as being an excellent welder and a handy carpenter. Over the years, he owned four race horses and proudly displayed their win pictures. He loved studying race programs and making bets on his favorites. He attained a blue belt in Karate and spent enough time golfing to get frustrated. It goes without saying that when George put his mind to something, it was going to be done thoroughly. There wasn’t a day that went by that he didn’t have planned to the max. Mr. Badgett is survived by his son, George Jay (Misti) Badgett and daughter, Wendy (Ross) Bekkedahl, both of Billings, Mont. He is also survived by his grandchildren: Samantha, Elle and Jaymee; one brother, Wally (Pam) Badgett of Miles City, Mont.; one sister, Karen (Steve) Hamilton of Fallbrook, Calif.; and numerous nieces and nephews. He was preceded in death by his parents and a son-in-law, Jim Clark. A vigil service will be held on Wednesday, June 18, 2008 at 6:30 p.m. at Stevenson & Sons Funeral Home in Miles City.
