Buddy was a very Christian man. He loved his family and friends. He believed in helping anyone who needed it in anyway. There were several customers he met on service calls, who didn’t have the means to pay, and he would forego the bill. He would help those who were struck by tragedy and help them out.
He enjoyed listening to gospel music and classic country music, which included Johnny Cash, Hank Williams and Elvis Presley.
