Buddy Waldon Obituary

Buddy Waldon, age 65, went to be with the Lord Sept. 30, 2015 in San Angelo, Texas. Buddy was born Sept. 28, 1950 to William and Lenora Waldon. He resided in Roby, Texas where he raised his children, owned Buddy's Auto and was a friend to all who knew him.
Buddy is survived by son, Shelton Waldon and daughters Hailey and Hanna; son, Josh and wife Melissa Waldon and children Mackenzie and Kaden; daughter, Chrissie and husband Dustin Ratliff; and daughter, Lacy Ratliff; Vicki Hardin and Ashley Cline.
Buddy is preceded in death by his parents Dub and Lenora Waldon.
Those who knew Buddy know that he knew no stranger. He would welcome anyone into his home and give them the shirt off his back. He was infamous for being a talker. Anyone who got to listen to his stories knew how funny Buddy really was and what a joy he was to be around. Buddy cherished his family. He was always bragging about all their accomplishments and successes. Even more than his children, he loved his grandchildren. He would melt into a puddle when his granddaughters came around! Buddy will definitely be missed by all who met him.
Graveside service will be at 10:30 a.m. on Saturday, Oct. 3, 2015, at the Roby Cemetery, under the direction of Weathersbee-Ray Funeral Home.
We are confident, I say, and would prefer to be away from the body and at home with the Lord.- 2 Corinthians 5:8
