I went to Reily High School and knew Wilmer (Buddy), as a friend, a very fast athlete, always respectable! Although I haven't seen Wilmer in years, I will always remember him. A good man! My sincerest condolences to his family, his girlfriend, and his many friends. Clyde Randall Patrick, class of 61, Reily High School.
