So sorry to hear about Charles Buddy. I am his first cousin, and have wonderful memories of growing up with him and his family in Natalbany.

Your sense of humor will go unmatched. You always had a hug for all. Life was better knowing you. A few minutes on Saturday as you ate your apple pancakes was a pleasure. Until we meet again fly high my friend.

It was a pleasure to have known you Mr. Buddy, for nearly 20 years we would see each other in Cracker Barrel. May you Rest In Peace, praying for all your family!
