"the man to send rainclouds"
they found him under a big cottonwood tree. his levi jacket and pants were faded light blue so that he had been easy to find. the big cottonwood tree stood apart from a small grove of winterbare cottonwoods which grew in the wide, sandy arroyo. he had been dead for a day or more, and the sheep had wandered and scattered up and down the arroyo. leon and his brother-in-law, ken, gathered the sheep and left them in the pen at the sheep camp before they returned to the cottonwood tree. leon waited under the tree while ken drove the truck through the deep sand to the edge of the arroyo. he squinted up at the sun and unzipped his jacket—it sure was hot for this time of year. but high and northwest the blue mountains were still in snow. ken came sliding down the low, crumbling bank about fifty yards down, and he was bringing the red blanket.
before they wrapped the old man, leon took a piece of string out of his pocket and tied a small gray feather in the old man’s long white hair. ken gave him the paint. across the brown wrinkled forehead he drew a streak of white and along the high cheekbones he drew a strip of blue paint. he paused and watched ken throw pinches of corn meal and pollen into the wind that fluttered the small gray feather. then leon painted with yellow under the old man’s broad nose, and finally, when he had painted green across the chin, he smiled.

final paragraph:
the wind pulled at the priest’s brown franciscan robe and swirled away the corn meal and pollen that had been sprinkled on the blanket. they lowered the bundle into the ground, and they didn’t bother to untie the stiff pieces of new rope that were tied around the ends of the blanket. the sun was gone, and over on the highway the eastbound lane was full of headlights. the priest walked away slowly. leon watched him climb the hill, and when he had disappeared within the tall, thick walls, leon turned to look up at the high blue mountains in the deep snow that reflected a faint red light from the west. he felt good because it was finished, and he was happy about the sprinkling of the holy water; now the old man could send them big thunderclouds for sure.
