    Lived next door to (Buddy) for 12 years. Just found papers with the spelling of his last name and decided to reach out. Sadly I found his obituary instead. Remember Carolyn and his parents and even his grandma. Aunt Ann lived upstairs. So sorry we never reconnected. He was so funny as a young boy
