Farewell Ole’ Buddy Eternity is woodland with flowers and trees, One can go there alone if he only believes. Mother Nature’s beauty is unique in the fall, Especially to a man in a black hat, and tall. He was a lover of life and the great outdoors, He didn’t worry about those unnecessary chores. He would sit in his spot that he cherished with love, With all those golden leaves and the blue sky above. When hunting or fishing or a nap in the woods, Our departed friend had the richest of goods. We talked and laughed oh —just yesterday About the season he loved as only he could say. His favorite spot was behind the white gate, But now you see, plans have changed his fate. The beauty of the valley, the leaves, and pine cones. Were deeply loved by our good friend, “Bones.” Mother Nature and the dude ranch have given a call, This should be a message not to one but to us all. He won’t be there this season and it’s sorta sad, ’Cause he was the best friend that Mother Nature had. Our jokes and laughter of past trips will remain, And I know someday we will meet him again. Death is a thing that Mother Nature can’t change. Whether it be in the woods or out on the range. We will always remember you, Bones as a teacher, coach and friend, ’Cause you loved to live ’til the very end. I guess we are selfish as we gather here today, To try to understand why you were taken away. Our campfires this fall will have lost their glow, ’Cause we will miss you, Bones, more than we thought so. No more turkeys to call, and no more tall tales, Now his outdoor stories seem like gracious fairy tales. Your memories will linger around the campfire at night. To us all, you will never be out of our sight. You will be out there with us in spirit and thought, ’Cause some things in life just can’t be bought. You touched us all in many different ways, You have given us memories that will never fade away. So, good-bye ole’ buddy and happy trails, You have taught us to smile when all else fails! Take care of yourself and the open spaces you love. You will remain in our hearts as you watch from above. The big hunt is now over, just like a high tide, Rest in peace, ole’ buddy cause you’ll remain by our side.
