Uncle Buzzy leaves a hole in many lives, but we know he is soaking up the glories of heaven! He is a precious soul, and meant so much to me during my time living in Sherrill. The summer we spent on Young Farms will remain for me as some of my best memories. He was kind and patient as he taught me so many things. I loved being able to go to town and bring back some chicken gizzards, just to see him smile! I will be praying for peace and comfort for you, Aunt Judy and Mrs. Young and the rest of the family. You are all loved and remembered with much affection.

Buzzy was a righteous and Godly man. Each day when he got up, he always did the right thing for the rest of the day. He taught his children and grandchildren to remember to treat other as they wanted to be treated. And he was fun to be around. He could always bring a smile to your face and to your insides.
He will be missed by those who knew and loved him. Heaven gained an angel.
