Not sure what to say?

We are sorry to hear about Buddy's passing and our thoughts are with his family. He was a nice guy with a great sense of humor. Ayer isn't the same without seeing him in the middle of Main Street stopping traffic or holding down the bench across from the bank. He was the friendliest guy we knew in Ayer and it seemed like he knew just about everyone that passed through the town. He always had a friendly wave or something funny to say to all. He will be sorely missed.

I'm so sorry to hear about Buddy's death, he was a great friend of my husbands and a great guy. He will be missed by all.
Mrs Flynn and Family

Mark, We want you to know that our thoughts and prayers are with you at this sad time. Our sincere sympathy to you and your family.

To the Decot Family,
I would like to express my sympathy to all of you. I have worked with Mark Decot at Fort Devens for many years and was sad to learn of your family's loss.
My thoughts are with you at this time; my prayers will include Mr. Decot and all of you.

So long brother the end of watch has come.I have fond memories of Buddy when we went to the police academy togther back in the 1970's.

I am saddened to read of the loss of one of our nicest APD members, a real gentleman. Buddy was a real "people" person and I had many a conversation with him in downtown Ayer while I lived there and managed the Caza Manor Motel.

our condolences
