Uncle Buddy, as I knew him, was an exceptionally kind, loving husband, father and uncle. His selflessness and willingness for self-sacrifice to those in need was a sweet, constant testament to his love for family, friends and all, especially with respect to his service to Our Lord. God bless him and we'll miss him terribly.
