I am so sorry. I can't imagine what you must be going through. I have so many fond memories of Mr. Buddy. All I can think about right now is him calling me "My Sharona" everytime he saw me. God is strong and He will get you all through this. I wish I was able to make it there, but I can't. But just please know that I love you so much and if there is anything I can do, let me know. I love y'all so much.

My thoughts and prayers are with you duringthis difficult time in your life. May God's peace and comfort surround you.

Please know I am here to help in any way -- Susan I am always available should you need to talk at any time -- love to all
