Just to let you know, I had so many great memories of Southside Drug Store and Mr Buckner, my favorite place to go for the BEST cherry snow cones in town. My prayers are with you all in your time of grief.

Buckner Family.
I was so blessed to work at Southside for Willy some 33 years ago. He was a Godly example to me as a young christian. I know he will be sorely missed, but I'm sure he is rejoicing in heaven. You all are my thoughts and prayers.

I will always remember the many many years of kindness Willie gave my grandmother. I'm sure our Lord met Willie in heaven with open arms.
