I am shocked and saddened to hear of Buddy's passing. I recall he played football one or two years while we were at LSHS. That is how I got to know him a little bit. Oddly enough, the longest conversation I ever had with Buddy was probably 35 years after we graduated. I was in LS visiting my Dad, and I had gone to Summit Fitness to exercise. I ran into Buddy in the locker room, and we spent about 10 minutes catching up and reminiscing. I was amazed at how successful he had become with his construction business in LS. He is another pillar from the class of "67" to fall.

Buddy and I met when his mother and miy mother used to run together. Buddy and I would go to the Vogue theater in downtown L.S. on Friday's. He was a good athtele. I met him again after college, selling building materials for International Paper CO. He was running several framing crews for a 64 home project. His builder and he approved to buy their lumber from me. The rest is history. He became a succsessful developer, I was promoted to a sales manager, that same year and transfered to Denver. Eventually, I became a facility manager for 18 years with I.P. I wish I could have had the opportunity to thank him for his influence in my life. He will be missed by many.
