My favorite Farnsworth character was Dodger from "Comes a Horseman".
In this role he perfectly portrayed the heart and soul of the western cattleman and rancher. One cannot help but love this capable, wise and gentle character.
When confronted with the certainty of his imminent death, Dodger chose to meet his end with dignity and pride - the same way he had lived his life. After living with terminal cancer, Mr. Farnsworth chose his ending at his ranch in Lincoln, New Mexico.
Richard Farnsworth's carreer spanned six decades. He was a Hollywood stuntman and actor who appeared in nearly 100 films. He is an inductee into the National Cowboy and Western Heritage Museum.
