We only recently heard of Buddy's passing. We will always have fond memories of Buddy from Wrightsville Beach, esp from working with him at the Pepper Mill Restaurant in the 1980's. May he rest in peace

enjoyed surfing w/ Buddy
Sorry to hear of Buddy' passing. Met @ Galloway Dorm in 1975 and surfed several times with Buddy. He loved his 'fish'--- if I remember correctly a red Gordon&Smith model he loved. Good dude he was~ The picture is similar to what I remember Buddy rode that year.
