To my family especially my cousins from my uncle Buddy I know you may not understand at this present time why would God call home your father at such a young age and leave you without a father. Well we all are put here on earth just for a period of time and in that time frame we all have a purpose or job here that God have planned for us. So now that the work is finish so is my time here on earth. We all will go thru a storm but it's the memory that will help you survive those hard times. With love and deepest sympathy always in my prayers love you all. R.I.P. Uncle Buddy
