James A. "Buddy" Nobles Jr.

I ran into a childhood friend about a month ago and we could not remember how we knew each other. Buddy poped into my head and Ryan told me he'd read in the paper what happened. I was shocked and in disbelief. Buddy and I were childhood friends and I have not seen him in many years. However, he touched my life in a special way as I know he did for all the lives he encountered. He will be greatly missed. I will keep Missy, Erica, and the rest of the family in my prayers.

Aunt Doris, Penny, Jimmy and Family: It has been many years since I saw Buddy but I have never forgotten him or any of you. I remember my trip to LA as one of the best vacations I had as a child and I will never forget Buddy's ever-smiling face. As so many people have mentioned it here I guess some things never change. My thoughts are with you during this difficult time and hope that the immense love you all have for one another carries you through this ordeal. Take comfort in knowing that...

To Ryan and his family,
Chase B. just stopped by and told us about Buddy. Bj had mentioned your brothers and sisters to us several times, so I felt I knew a little about him. BJ thought alot of you and your family.
We know how much this loss hurts. Know that we will be praying for God to give you and your family strength and comfort in the days to come.
Ryan, if you come in this area please come by and see us.

May your faith and loving family help you find peace and help ease the pain in your hearts. My prayers are with you.

You may find that for a time your emotions will be somewhat unpredictable. Tears may flow without much advance warning. Be patient with yourself. And do not feel that you have to hold back the tears. Remember, they are a natural and necessary part of grieving. Even Jesus Christ openly shed tears of grief without any apparent embarrassment. John 11:33-35

Jimmy & Penny,

BJ and I were shocked to hear of your sons passing. Please accept our condolences; our thoughts and prayers are with the entire Nobles Family.

Our family was shocked and deeply saddened to hear about Buddy's passing. Please know that the entire Griffith family is praying for you.

Penny and Jimmy,
I was devistated to hear of the loss of your precious son. You are all in our thoughts and prayers.

I remember Buddy well from the brief time I had the chance to work with him on the soccer team at Jesuit. He was an outstanding young man back then as a freshman, and I see that he grew into an incredible man for others. I offer my deepest sympathies to his wife and family on the loss of such a special young man.
