So very sorry for the loss of Buddy! I remember him well, beginning with the days at Abbot Elementary and of course, as a star and heavy hitter on the PCHS baseball team. May he rest in peace and no longer be in any kind of pain. Also, this is probably the most beautiful and captivating eulogy I’ve ever read. A wonderful sentiment for Buddy.

I was numb when I heard the news of Nathaniel's passing....we knew he was really sick but just kept hoping he would be near us for a long time....Buddy was like one of ours being neighbors and so close to our family..Bud would do anything for anybody and loved to be challenged to do anything you put in front of him....The only thing that is comforting is that he is in Jesus's arms now.......Love you Deb , Phil and all you guys in the family...❤❤❤

My condolences to Buddy’s family. My heart breaks for all of you.
I first met Buddy when we were about 6 years old at my family’s camp ground. From that moment on he was my childhood best friend. We would climb trees, ride bikes, swim, make awesome hay forts in my family’s barn and have so many fun adventures together. One of our favorite movies to watch together was the Labyrinth. Buddy and I even went to prom together as teenagers. I loved Buddy from the first time I met him. He was a fun and caring person an old soul in many ways. I’ll cherish my memories of him always. Buddy will forever and always be in my heart. Rest easy my dear friend ❤️
