Bedford "Buddy" Steve Terry, 61, of Mooringsport, LA passed away last Wednesday, January 15, 2014. Buddy was a man's man. He worked in the oilfield his entire life and eventually retired from Key Energy.  He loved God and was a member of Mooringsport Baptist Church.  He loved his family and just like a real man, Buddy loved to fish.

Especially crappie fishing on Caddo Lake and Lake O' the Pines.  He was a member of Crappie Masters and Cabela's Master Walleye Circuit.  He loved to host family fish fries and cook his crappie catch of the day.

And it was his love for fishing that inspired his family to have him transported to his final resting place in his beloved fishing boat.  No hearse, no horse drawn carriage, none of that for Buddy.  He got to make one more trip in that trusty boat that had hauled in more crappie and catfish than ten other boats combined.

It was an incredible sight and something never witnessed before by the staff at Gorsulowsky Funeral Home in Vivian or by anyone in attendance.  Course, if you knew Buddy, you know he wouldn't have wanted it any other way.

 

Somebody get the net, God's got a big one on the line.
