Dear Bernice and Family,
I''m sure you all know how much Buster meant to me. He took the time to teach me the love of shoeing a horse, he was always there when I needed to ask him a question.
I always enjoyed when he phone to check on me and always enjoyed when I phone to check on him.
I loved to see him drive in my driveway for a visit or to come sit by my campfire. I''ve missed our trail rides and campfires, Oh how I loved his stories of shoeing horses and his travels.
I will miss the times I would take him on a road trip with me, to keep me company and listen to more of his stories and shoeing tales
I really miss our days of trail riding, when Bernice would let him go with me because she knew I would take good care of him, give him a safe horse to ride and watch out for him in his later years, for this I thank you so much, we grew very close in all of these trips we took.
I loved our afternoon tea and visits when I stopped on my way home from work. He was always happy to have me stop and share some time with him.
At our last visit a couple of weeks ago, before I left, he made sure we held hands for a while, as if he knew it would be out last visit together, I was sure there was going to be more, but there wasn''t.
And just a week before, he had Bernice drive him out to the farm, to see where I had moved. Even tho he couldn''t get out and walk around, he was happy to see it, and I was so happy to see his truck pull in the driveway.
Buster, you have and will always hold a special spot in my heart, I will truly miss you. You were my Best Friend.
I''ll see you on the trail someday, over that Rainbow Bridge where all of our Horses and Dogs we loved, will be waiting to go on a trail ride with us.
Love,
Keith
