Buzzy and I were friends starting in 3rd grade. We played together as children, and I was lucky enough to go all through our school life together. He was always kind, sweet, and, of course, handsome! I send heartfelt sympathy to his family and friends. He will be missed.

My sincere condolences to all who knew him well. Buzzy played tennis with me for years and was always a good sport. He got my daughter a job as a news reporter for a local station when she was in high school, such a supportive guy.
