I just learned of Buddy´s passing tonight. So sorry to hear this. Remember him as a really nice friend at TJ and we were in Key Club together my sophomore year and his senior year.

Rita and Family, I am so very sorry for your loss. Buddy and I grew up on Kensington Avenue and attended Elementary School and Thomas Jefferson High School together. He was always a thoughtful and caring person and I am sure he will be missed by many. I pray that the precious memories you have will help you through this sad time and in days to come.
With my deepest sympathy,
Trudy R. Martin

Oh, Rita, I am so sorry for the loss of your ,Buddy. I so enjoyed working with him at Monacan High School. He always could see the humor in every thing and his keen sense of people made him a joy to work with.
