Buddy, we will miss you. You had this affinity for those on Singer Island who fit in no where else but Buddie's. From the wheel of fortune for your employees, to the blood and sweat that went into the food. May you be well received wherever you find yourself.

He took and loved my children as if they were his own and tried to help them in all areas of their lifes. We consider him family and Millie loves him as if he were her father and will greatly miss him as a friend and a mentor.
