This afternoon, Missoula paid tribute to a local icon. A person who showed us that it was okay to dance, without a care in the world. Today, Missoula paid tribute to the "Dancing Man."

Ronald Kephart passed away suddenly last week, while doing what he enjoyed most....Dancing! While attending the weekly "Out-To-Lunch" food festival, Ronald suffered a cardiovascular issue and was transported to the hospital from Caras Park. Mr. Kephart reportedly died while at the hospital.

Organizers arranged a tribute to "Dancing Man" exactly one week after Kephart passed. Missoula.com captured footage of the many supporters that showed up to simply "DANCE."
