Not sure what to say?

Judy and Family, I am so very sorry to hear about Buzzie passing away! I know there are no words that can take away the pain, but you have my deepest sympathy and may God give you strength in the days ahead. I am so glad that I got to see you both when we met for lunch. He was a wonderful man and will be missed by all that knew and loved him. Terri Basile and Family

I just want you all to know that I'm thinking of you, and will be praying for you in the days and weeks and months ahead as you navigate life now without him. My deepest...

We are sorry to hear about Uncle Buzzy , I will never forget his contagious laugh he had. Prayers to all of you at this difficult time.
