I can´t believe I saw this obituary and Bunkey has been gone so long. I worked with Bunkey at DHL he was a great guy and great co- worker. He used to talk about the reservation all the time and I told him I had never been. So Bunkey said let´s go and we went that weekend. Had a great time. My very belated sympathy to the Edwards family.

I know it's been over 12 years since we lost this great man and friend, but I heard our old 2:30 song you would play everyday and just wanted to say eventhough you're gone, you'll never be forgotten.
