So sorry to hear. Rest in peace, Bud. Find treasures in the great beyond. Blessings to your friends and family. -Noodle
Dear Lord, lest I continue in my complacent ways, help me to remember that someone died for me today. And if there be war, help me to remember to ask and to answer "am I worth dying for?" - Eleanor Roosevelt
When I was just a teenager I was blessed (or cursed) to have been able to meet Curtiss Good who more or less adopted me and taught me this Spanish stuff. when he died his partner asked if I would partner up with him, Glenn Sweigart was my partner untill he died in 1989. In 82 he retired to Mesa AZ and became friends with Buddy. That is how I met Mesa Buddy.
The hard part for me.... losing Buddy is like losing the last link with my past.
We are who we are because of the things we have done and the folks we have known,
If a bit of Buddy rubbed off on some of us ... hopefully we are all better for it.
