Cindy,
I am saddened to hear of Buddy's passing. I am glad that I recently saw Buddy and had a chance to talk with him for awhile. He was the same ole Buddy I knew from our Hobgood, Central, and MTSU days, laughing and enjoying the moment. He will be missed.

Cindy,
I'm very sorry to hear of Buddy's death. He and I were classmates and fraternity brothers at Murfreesboro Central High School. I was with Buddy when he surprised his Dad at his 80th birthday at his office. It was such a fun time! I will always remember Buddy with that big smile and many friends. My prayers are with you and family as you celebrate his life.
