Buzzy Grew up, went to school and lived in Marshfield. He was a cherished individual known for his kind, loving, caring, and humorous personality. Buzzy touched the lives of many with his love of life, love of driving truck and profound sense of humor, warmth, creativity, curiosity, and gregarious, outgoing nature. Buzzy was a generous friend and possessed an uncanny ability to connect to just about anyone. He possessed a disarming wit, and an empathetic heart. He had a rare gift of building community wherever he found himself.

I am sorry to hear about Buzzy's passing. I served with Buzzy in the 1058th Transportation Company ( MAARNG). He was one of the best Tractor Trailer drivers in the unit. I will always have great memories of our times at Ft. Bragg, West Point and Ft. Drum. Rest in Peace SGT Williams.
