Fort Worth native and fabled TV frontiersman Fess Parker died Thursday at the age of 85. We fondly remember "Davy Crockett" in this Back Channels look at his life and times as a California vineyard owner. It was first published just over five years ago, with a robust 80-year-old Parker playing the most gracious host imaginable. There's also a companion remembrance of Parker on my home away from home, locatetv.com.
