Sad to hear, Walt, but at least it still tasted good. Always hurts when a plan doesn't work out like we want it too! Just a tip on reverse-searing I've learned - don't worry about keeping it warm. Wrap in foil and set it on the counter until the oven or grill gets to searing temp. It will only rise a few degrees while in the foil, and should be back on the heat for searing in less than 30 minutes.
