Not sure what to say?

Buster means so much to so many... its hard for ONE person, alone to say "He was my Brother," or that we were the best of childhood friends. To all of Princeton, he was a friend and...A Saint...and we are ALL so very proud of his lifetime accomplishments. God Bless Buster....and God Bless His Family!

With all our sympathy and love,

Dear Bette and family.

Buck will be missed but, not forgotten.

When there is talk about who's a real Christian (thought, word and deed) Clyde Thomas's name has to be on the list.

I believe Buster's life experience should be heard by our young people. His way is certainly worth emulating.

To Aunt Bette, Mark and Sharan:

"Uncle Buster" was truly a blessing to my family. He was a permanent fixture in my dad's life (Bobby Harmon) and ours. He was always there for us through thick and thin. There is only one "uncle buster" and he is with the angels looking down and smiling and being proud of all of us.

Happy people...enjoy the fundamental often very simple things in life...They savor the moment, glad to be alive, enjoying their work, their families,...

To The Thomas Family: I will always remember the positive, strong image emanating from Buster, as we as young impressionable teens wrestled with our own self images/egos. There was never a time when he acted in an unGODly fashion. He is truly one of the most positive examples of what a man should be, that I have encountered. I believe with all my heart that, my friend Buster, is resting with the angels. I pray for your strength in this time of sorrow, but remember to those who love the...

Hi Miss Bette, Mark, and Sharahn:

Our deepest sympathy goes out to you all. You all know how close are families are and when you hurt, we also hurt. Buster was a wonderful man to all that knew him. He and Uncle Earl have been friends FOREVER! I remember the Clay Street days and his Mother...that's where his inner beauty came from for sure! Know that we are here for you all and our prayers are with you. May God bless you and keep you.

Love, Paige Walden, Marilyn...

To Bette and family--
My sincere condolences and may it help you to know that others understand and care and are remembering you and your family with special thoughts. Anyone who knew Clyde had only good things to say about him--he will be truly thought of as the person you could always talk to and it was a pleasure working with him at the Meadowlands all those years--he will be truly missed. May God Bless you and your family. Dot

This lovely poem by J. R. Denney is to Bette and Family of Buster

God saw you were tired
and knew no cure could be
so he leaned over your bedside
and whispered come with me
when god came down to take you
he proved he only takes the best
when you died a golden heart could beat no more
and hard working hands went to rest
in life we loved you dearly
in death we love you still
there will always be a place in my...
