To Miss Almeda and family,

I have known Buddy for many years. All of us were dear childhood friends and neighbors in AC for over 20 years while living on Emerson Avenue on the westside, with our Miss Joyce, Miss Almeda, Ms. Kim, Mrs. Brenda, and our block mom and clean-up lady, Ms. Jackie Mixon. Miss Almeda (as we call her) and my mom were very good friends for many years. Buddy will be missed, he was one of the funniest guys you could meet, the whole family are good people.

We are praying for you during this time.

J.D. Martineau “Joey”
(Mrs. Brenda’s Son)
