My sincere condolences on the loss of your dad. Many fond memories of time in the old neighborhood.

Wow, I am so sorry to hear about Bucky's passing. I am sending Rose, Steve, Mark and Sandy hugs. (Say Hi for me to your cousin, Susie, for me.)

The passing of Buck Burrell raises fond memories of his paternal grace - our families are inextricably bound as we were next door neighbors for decades - always remaining amiable and conciliatory through the twist and turns of neighborhood life. It is with great love and respect that we bid him adieu on his eternal journey and ask for the comfort of love and appreciation to his family for a life well lived.
