Gee, I remember Buddy when he worked at Loetcher's Grocery on Colorado Avenue and drove a 1952 Ford Mainline.  I haven't seen him in all these years and it doesn't look like he changed that much - always the happy smile and shining eyes.  May God bless him richly for his kindness to others all these years.

I am so sorry to hear about your dad  I haven't talked to him for too long. He was always my go to man and I wish him peace. Steve Calu, Albertson's 1980-1998-

Dear Taffy and cousins,
I was so sorry to hear about Buddy's death.  I have such fond memories of when he came "east" and visited us.  Love and prayers to all

I miss you so much Daddy. You were always there for me. You were the best Daddy a girl could ask for. I love you very much!

Buddy was the first checker I bagged for. We were friends right away. We always talked Broncos football. Rest in peace brother.

Doris, we are so sorry to hear of your brothers passing! Our prayers are with you at this difficult time in your life! God Bless you!

I will miss you my longtime friend; as well as our numerous talks since we, ourselves, were kids, working at Loetcher's and through the past forty years.  Take care, my friend.  God bless.

Sherri,  You have my deepest sympathy and love.  I realize I thought your dad was your step-dad that we went to Branson with.  Sorry for your loss.   Luv

My whole family got to know Buddy when we went thru his line at Albertson's. Both of my daughters remember him well. It was always such fun to go thru and talk to him.  I never knew him other than through Albertson's, but there were many years of chats and laughs, and talk about retirement.  When Albertson's closed I was sad that I wouldn't be able to chat with Buddy anymore. He made a big impact on his customers.  Several people called me today after they saw his obituary in the Gazette.  They, too, said that they fondly remember going thru his lines!!!  My thoughts and prayers are with his family!

Dad, it's only been a few days since you left us. I know you are in a much better place. I love you so much.

So sorry for your loss! Buddy was a great man and a good friend!

You will be greatly missed my friend. You always knew how to make me smile when I was down. Always had smile on your face. I know you are at peace now and no more pain. You will always be in my heart.

So sad for your loss Sherri. You are in my thoughts and prayers

Buddy it was great knowing you. Now your in heaven I talked to my mom to walk with you so you wouldn't be alone. We all miss you. Ginger is doing good. :).

:) I love you dad! You were an amazing person and we miss you so much! Love you!
