At family gatherings he'd carve the meat It had to be perfect, it had to be neat Let's not forget fishing, "The king of the Sea" He'd take you on a boad and show you how things should be Never without his TV Guide As we would watch wrestling by his side This man was a hero to all who knew A Veteran, a father, a grandfather, too. I'll keep him in my heart wherever I go There is nobody like him, the strongest man I'll ever know To send a lasting tribute or condolences to the Buzin family, please sign the online guestbook.
