Miss you "Knuckles". I often let my mind wander off to visualize all the good times we had. I don't think I will ever forget those times and the many friends who shared them.

My condolencies to Bubba's family. I knew Bubba since high school. Though we were not close friends, I talked to him many times at Diamond Oaks and we were partners once on a Vegas golf trip. Always had a good time with him.

My condolences to the family, who have lost such a vital person. I always loved stories about Bubba from my mother, Marjorie Page, cousin to his mother, Johnnie.
