Hoss

Lately I've been watching reruns.
Old shows about a man with three sons.
In 1972 we faced a great loss.
I'm talking about the death of Dan Blocker better known as Hoss.
I enjoy watching these reruns but I'm not a huge Bonanza fan.
I wasn't alive when it originally ran.
Hoss is my favorite character on the show.
Bonanza was made nearly half a century ago.
I wonder what Blocker would be doing now if he wasn't dead.
He was a big man and he was talented.
Blocker died because of surgical complications.
His death saddened the nation.
