A Final Farewell

Awhile back a man in our town passed away. He had worked all his life on ranches 

including his own. He was well know by most of the town and well thought of. How we got involved with his funeral is that his daughter is a member of the Church so we helped setup and helped with the food after the funeral. This is the first time I have seen a funeral at a Rodeo Grounds. I felt like a tourist but wanted to document this unusual funeral. They did decorate the grounds to look nice.

I loved his hat, shows a lot of hard work.
