I just remember Buddy always smiling, and looking like the "cat who just ate the canarie". Great sweet guy.

Bud was a true friend. He would do anything for anyone. He had a huge heart and was loved by so many. I miss him dearly. I'm so glad I had the honor of working for him and with him at Drake's. He will always be in my heart. I am so sorry for the loss of a great man!
