Buford Crites

Hello Friends,

It is with an extremely broken and shattered heart that we must let you all know Buford passed away peacefully this morning. When and if there is a service for Buford we will let you know. We will be looking at doing a special hike in memory of Buford at some point and I’m sure some cocktails at the cabin!

From Buford’s close friend Connor Limont:

“Buford had a steak dinner from Jillian’s Thursday evening and Julie, a dear friend had dinner with him last night. Buford passed peacefully at Chapel Hill this morning.”

Please enjoy this "Friends of Buford" video from Friends of the Desert Mountains' annual "Friends & Champions fundraiser honoring Buford Crites, Friends founder and Coachella Valley conservationist.

We love you Buford! RIP very dear friend!
