My deepest sympathies to Buzzy's daughters and grandchildren on his passing. He came to Veterans Rally Point a handful of times with his good friend Kelly Chapman. There ended up being a group of four friends from the Sprague Rod & Gun club that would come together. We enjoyed getting to know him. May he rest in peace now.

I remember Buzzy cutting my hair as a child when I lived in Baltic. He was always jovial. Rest in peace Buzzy
