Colorado ranching community mourns after brothers drown

Our thoughts are with the Westcliffe, Colorado community as they mourn the loss of two brothers who tragically drowned earlier this week on their family ranch. According to KOAA News 5, Weldon Rusher, 20, disappeared after going for a swim at Music Meadows Ranch Sunday evening. His brother, Ben, 28, entered the pond in an attempt to find his brother, but also never resurfaced.

As reported, both were heavily involved in ranching, rodeo, FFA, and cared deeply about the community.
