My deep and sincere condolances to Sallie and family.  May you know the comfort that only Jesus can bring to you, at this time.   Love, Carolyn

                 BUSTER
He taught me so many things...
right there for everyone if they took the time to see.
He made me want to be a better person...
To strive to be as genuine and kind as he. 
To see what joy there still is in this world no matter what you're going through. 
He was always there, with a smile, a kind word, a helping hand...
Whatever he could do.
A proud fireman...Santa...The Ice Man or Sammy the Sailfish...
no matter what hat he wore.
It was his pleasure, never a chore.
A soul as good as his will never end. 
And I for one am honored to call him my true friend.

Thank God for sharing Buster with us.  He was always willing and able to do anything we ask of him at Sailfish Marina.  He was always happy and shared his joy with all.  We will miss you in this life and look forward to seeing you in heaven.

Buster was my brother and playmate thru life. Now I know how much he was love 
 and did love thru his life. He had more friends than I knew about and thank you God for his warm heart. Thank you all for being at his celebration of love last night.

I think Buster enjoyed seeing my dog more than me! He always put a smile on my face, as he was always smiling himself. He will be missed.

Buster was a fine person. He would stop by the PBSPD for coffee and a chat.  You will be missed Buster.

i worked on the docks at sailfish when tom price told me buster was going to be working with us... he made me laugh, if all of us could be as kind, loving , helping and honest as buster, this world would be a better place, i made a pillowcase for buster, sammy the sailfish, buster claus, ice ice baby, bustin a move buster, he liked flirting with the women, lol, i even drew him hanging out of the dumpster that used to be down by pumphouse, what a great guy, im glad he crossed my path i will be glad to see him again, rest in peace buster, love you

I started working at Sailfish Marina when I was 17 years old and Buster and I became instant friends. The words that would fly out of his mouth always made my morning. I will miss him harassing Megan and I in the mornings and sitting with him at the Sailfish Christmas parties. I take comfort in knowing that he is now at peace. I had to put my dog down four days after his passing, and I know that Buster was waiting to give him treats! This is not goodbye, it is simply 'see you later.'

Sallie,
My prayers are with you and your family.

I loved Buster. He was a special man, did so much for us in Palm Beach Shores. He had a great sense of humor, when I was walking my dog Pepper, he would "meow" like a cat  : )

Sallie and Wayne, May wonderful memories of your brother help you tomorrow and all the other "tomorrows" to come.  Our thoughts and prayers.

Sallie and Wayne, May your wonderful memories and special times with your brother carry you through tomorrow and all of the rest of "tomorrows". You're in our thoughts and prayers.

Such a kind loving soul. Loved life and everyone he met.  Remembered him working for my brother Frank at State No Fault.  RIP Buster - you will be missed.

Buster, iceman, no words can express your kindness and compassion...you will be truly missed by so many..I am thankful for all the happiness you brought to my daughter and myself. RIP!!

Buster was a beloved member of the Sailfish Marina family of employees.  We take comfort in the knowledge that Buster is truly in paradise now.  

His routine would bring him to my office door where he would remind me of the calendar of events, holiday happenings, birthdays & news events.  We would talk for a few minutes and he would be on his way. I will miss our conversations and his singing in the hallways. 

May he rest in peace.  We will remember him fondly.

"BUSTER WAS A GENTLE SOUL WHO MADE THE WORLD A BETTER PLACE JUST BY BEING IN IT.
HE WILL BE MISSED

Sorry to hear about Buster. My condolence to the family. Surely he will be missed. Sallie he is in a better place,happy and doing well.

I remember Buster, Thats really the only name I ever called him. Anyway I remember buster as an umpire in T Ball and Little League. He was always very
nice  to us kids. I remember one time after a game he  bought Ice Cream for 
everyone. In fact as I recall he was always very generous to us. I am sure that
everyone that grew up in Riviera Beach and Singer Island is very sad about hearing the news of his passing. I am sure however that he has moved on to 
a much better place.

RIP BUSTER. You are now at peace & will be missed by many family members and friends.

Sallie and Wayne, My thoughts and prayers go to you today and the following days ahead. I know it was hard on you with the reunion this past weekend.  If I can do anything let me know.

He is enveloped in Gods embrace and is now at peace free of all pain! Thank you God for your strength and love. Rip Buster.

Buster was one of those guys who had alot of experience and knowledge and love to share it with everyone he came in contact with. He devoted his life to the Fire Service and was a hidden asset for all. You will be truly missed my friend.

Buster was a legend.  He was such a huge part of the Sailfish Marina experience,  and the Palm Beach Shores FD.   My dog Lucy and I will always cherish our memories of this special man.

Buster was one of a kind. At work he called us girls upstairs sisters. We were all part of his family. Whenever I visited Sailfish I was always happy to see Buster was still working there. It will be strange to visit next time and not see him around. Rest In peace Buster.

Not one like him. He was special to us all and will never be forgotten.See you on the other side brother.Rip.

My dog loved seeing his beat-up truck around town, because he knew he was gonna get treats. Diesel (my dog), and myself also had the honor of walking (rolling, in my case) in the PBS St. Patrick's Day Parade with Buster. I will miss his humor and seeing him around town. He was a great man who will be missed by many, but remembered by all. His name will, no doubt, go down in this town's history. Buster, I'm gonna miss you. The Christmas party, hosted by Ladies Auxiliary, will miss having you there to make sure there are few leftovers. Always a pleasure. I am honored to have known you! Rest in Peace.

Buster a icon of the area he will be missed RIP good buddy

Buster was one of the kindest and sweetest man  we have ever met.  We remember him so fondly during our time in Riviera Beach and when he had the florist shop with his mom.  He will be missed.
Sincerely
John and Debbi Daly Roelandts

"Buster" Fitz was the first person to welcome me when I first wondered into the Palm Beach Shores Fire Station in 2007 and asked if there was anything I could do to help.  For Buster, there was always room for someone new ... and always something more to do.

I have been a volunteer all my life, in many organizations, in places from Massachusetts to Virginia to Florida; and I have met hundreds of superb volunteers ... but none have exhibited the caring and dedication shown by Buster over the six years I was privileged to know him.

He will be greatly missed.
