Kathy, & family, I'm so sorry for your loss. Especially this time of year. I didn't know your mom, but know she had a great bunch of "kids" and had to be very special. I know it's not easy, but believe there is a better place and we'll catch up with our love ones there. You will be in my thoughts and prayers. God Bless All

Growing up in South Buffalo and being a part of the Bugman family as all of Owen and John's friend were. I know that Mom will be sadly missed by many of those who were touched and guided by her. The house on Taylor St was where we would meet so often. The Bugman Family will always have Special Memories to many of us. She has gone to a better place > God Bless this Special Family. Sincerely, Lee and Nancy Smith
