Dear Daryl, Janet, Marcy and Cory, We are so saddened to hear about Buddy's death. He was such a wonderful man. We all really enjoyed meeting him over the years and loved seeing him when they visited. We still remember Buddy and Marie being here for the dance pictures. We know you all have wonderful memories to cherish so hold on to those. We know you are going through a rough time but remember you all are in our thoughts and prayers. Please give Marie a big hug for us. Please thank Cory for letting Heather know. We miss you all and if there is anything we can do for you here, please do not hesitate to ask. We love you all.



Love, Diane, Tripp, Heather and Holly
