Bubba was a one of a kind person. He loved his family and friends unconditionally. He had a smile that would light up the world. He was my dearest friend. There are no words to express how much he will be missed. My prayers go out to his amazing wife Debbie. It has been a long hard road for her and I know Bubba loved her very much. Thank you for taking care of "My Bubba." Rest in peace my friend.

He was a man's man - hard bark on the outside, big heart on the inside. I'll be along directly, "Big Brother."
