Death in the family
« on: February 05, 2013, 02:45:09 pm »
Just a few minutes ago my wife called from my sons home where she taking care of getting his satelite tv installed while he is working. She was upset and crying his favorite hunting dog and a member of our family for 12 years had gone into a seizure "result of cancer" and had to be put down luckily my younger son was with her and was able to take care of things and bury Ol Buck.
But fellas don't feel sorry for Buck he lived a big life hunted hard drank beer and chased loose women,so to speak and for the last 5 years was a retired man of leisure. tonight when I get home I'll drink a bud light "his favorite brand " and toast his passing. Ronnie
If we can't help each other what is the point of being here?

I'm not a beer man but I'll sip some Southy Cherry and Coke to ol Buck!  He sounds like he was a real "hound dog" in his day ;)

Excellent presentation and memorial! Its a good story for a good life by the sounds of it.
Only when the last tree has died and the last river has been poisoned and the last fish has been caught will we realize we cannot eat money.

Losing a faithful companion is always difficult. Sounds like he had a great life! We could all wish for the same. Huntin', drinkin' beer... loose women, a retired life of leisure. Is there something missing? Salut, Buck!

 If you have to pull the trigger, is it really archery?
