Well little brother, I suppose this is where we part ways...I. Never n a million years thought it would go down like this... I don't understand why u of all people would be taken from us so prematurely... there's so many things . I didn't get to tell u... I don't reckon I'll ever get the chance now... it jus doesn't seem real... I keep hoping I'm gonna wake up and you'll still b here... u helped me through some of my darkest days, and showed me an undying loyalty when nobody else was there... u selflessly rode it out w/me w/o any expectations... for that I'm eternally grateful... that was worth more to me than any material possessions could ever begin to compare to ... what u didn't know at the time, is by u doing that, u gained the same unconditional loyalty from me...as well as a brother that would drive a gas truck through the firey gates of hell if u needed me to. No questions asked. I only hope i was able to show u that... bubba i love u little brother we'll meet again one day, don't b getting trouble ... at least wait until i get there... love u buddy

A wise person once said tomorrow isn't promised, so live your life fruitful and be blessed! Bubba did just that, he lived a life that was full of love, affection and admiration. For those who knew him, Bubba was a friend, but to me he was my first nephew who I will always love and remember. On earth, tomorrow may not be promised, but in heaven tomorrow is forever present. Rest in peace my angel, God have you in his hands.

May God's grace and comfort blanket your family and bring you peace. Bubba was my first known "Bubba" when we moved south and he always had a sweet sense about him followed by humor... Blessed to have known him through my daughter Stephanie.....

I extend my deepest condolences to the families of Marvin "Bubba" Bumgarner Jr. Although I did not have the pleasure of knowing him personally, I have known Casie since she was a little girl and friends with my daughter. I have enjoyed Facebook posts from Casie that have clearly shown the love and affection that Bubba had for her and their boys. This is a huge loss for you all and I hope the memories of the precious time you had with him will ease your suffering in the days to come.
