(CNN) -- The man behind a famous star has passed away.
Jack Eskridge designed the Dallas Cowboys' team logo after joining the team in 1959, a year before its first season kicked off. His blue star with the white highlight graces every Cowboy's helmet to this day.

Ok, first off, let me say, sorry to hear that he passed away. But really how difficult was it to make their logo. Honestly. This is probably how it went down.
Tom Landry - Hey, these are our colors...we need to come up with a logo.
Jack Eskridge - Dallas is in the lone star state, how about a lone star in team colors.
Tom Landry - Sounds good, lets go get lunch.
