W. Buxton TURNER

I just heard of Buxton's passing yesterday. He was my next door neighbor on Raleigh Rd. until he moved to Va Beach. I remember him announcing Warwick Original Little League games when Mike Batkins, Mike Ware, Maury Jackson and I played. Hilton was a great place to be in the 60's and we could always find some guys on Hurley Ave to get up a game. I'll miss knowing you're gone. Mike Thornton, Newport News and WHS '74 (sort of)

Dear Jason:
So very sorry to hear of your father's passing.
We have fond memories of the two of you playing pool with our son the last time you visited El Paso.
Wayne and Charlotte thought the world of you and Buxton. They would speak of you two highly every time they visited.
Again, our deepest condolences on your loss.
If you are ever in this area, let us know. We would love seeing you again.

We were so sad to hear about Buxton and remember so well his wonderful spirit and his great sense of humor. I always thought of him and the whole Newport News family with such fondness.
He will be missed!

We are so sorry to hear of Buxton's death. He was such a great cousin and always had time to talk about our family.
We had some great times in Charlottesville as well as out at Aunt Cora's.
I'll surely miss him!

How sorry we are to hear of Buxton's passing.
I remember fondly visits with his family growing up when we visited Newport News.

So sad to hear of the loss of Buxton, I so remember our families getting together and all the fun with counsins. Buxton was always lots of fun-so sorry for your loss.

We are remembering Buxton in our prayers at St. Andrew's altar at our weekday service tomorrow and at both services on Sunday. The Rev. Dr. Rob Marston
Rector, St. Andrew's Episcopal Church

Mike Batkins' comments were exactly right. Great place to grow up back in the 60's. Can't imagine how much money we lost putting basball cards in the spokes of our Spyder bikes and the hours playing something in all the front yards on Hurley. Sorry to hear you are gone so soon. Mike Ware, Va. Beach. WHS "74

You,Randy,Bruce and I as well as all the Hilton Gang could not have asked for a better place to grow up and amongst what would become lifelong friends. I have a picture of You Randy and me when we were 10 or 12 and its hard to believe you would be voted best dressed in school. We were not very dapper either. ( I thought I was so cool when you sold me your used shirts from Beecroft) All my best to your family, you will be greatly missed. Mike Batkins Carrollton, Va. and WHS class of 74
