Born in Seattle, Wash. on Feb. 12, 1944, Buzz´s family moved to Weiser in the early 1950s. He was known to his friends and family as a cowboy, gold miner and a real good ole´ boy who loved life and lived it to it´s fullest. The son of an outfitter, Buzz had many fond memories of the back country and the people who, like him, appreciated the beauty and majesty of Idaho´s wilderness. In 1991 Buzz returned to his roots and became a licensed Outfitter and Guide operating on the South Fork of the Salmon River for many years. He made lifelong friends from the East Coast to the West Coast. In later years Buzz enjoyed gold mining, hunting, deep-sea fishing, and Karaoke singing with family and friends. Buzz loved helping folks out, be it working on their home, running heavy equipment or going on a much loved cattle drive. He touched every one he came in contact with in a very special way, we will miss him very much. His mother, Thelma McMullen, his father, Del Davis and his sister, Judy Bates, preceded him in death. His family would also like to thank all of the Mountain States Tumor Institute doctors and wonderful staff for their support and care of Buzz during his illness. It was there he made many new friends. In lieu of flowers, the family requests donations are given in Buzz´s name to MSTI in Fruitland c/o Thomason Funeral Home, Weiser, Idaho. Services will be held Saturday, April 1, 2006 at 3 p.m. at Thomason Funeral Home.
