Famed cowboy Buster Welch laid to rest in Sweetwater

“An iconic Texas cowboy has ridden off into his final sunset,” read one of the many tributes to the late Buster Welch, who died at his home in Abilene, Texas, earlier this month at 94 years old. Working horses and cattle since he was a teenager, Welch had found employment with numerous ranches across Texas, including the 6666 Ranch in Guthrie and the King Ranch.
