Buddy lived a full and memorable life marked by his love for family, friends, work, and the simple joys that brought him happiness.

Buddy spent his 42 year Career at Ford Motor Company. Outside of work, he found joy in life's everyday moments—listening to country music and enjoying garage beers with friends, shopping for good deals and treasures, or tending to his pristine lawn. He had a natural gift for storytelling and a sharp sense of humor that endeared him to those around him. His teasing, his joyful jokes were always delivered with love and lots of laughter.

My Dad, a man of both strength and sincere generosity, his presence was a source of comfort to those who loved him. He cherished gatherings with loved ones and had an innate ability to make everyone feel welcome, on his down time you could find him relaxing in his chair watching a good Western cat-napping.

His genuine nature left an indelible mark on all who crossed his path.
