Doug Olson says
Always very open to talk to! Even though we only met at St. John’s Nep. in 3rd and 4th grades, we also were cub scouts together. Many years passed by and when I met you again after high school , you always gave me your time to say hello. Maybe you don’t even remember me from those days and you just let me talk. “Who the heck are you?” Lol!
But you still took time to listen to my pleasantries! I will miss seeing you out and about Buddy!
Peace to you and your family knowing you did touch people.
Linda Araújo (LEXA back then) says
I am deeply saddened to hear about this. Buddy and I were brief boyfriend and girlfriend back in high school. I even went to his boot camp graduation ceremony.
I am sending my deepest condolences to his family and friends.
