    Anyone who knew Buzz will miss him. He truly was unique and filled with genuine warmth. Especially for his wonderful family. Because of Carmelina, he knew about God's promises of Paradise Earth and the resurrection hope. Until then may his family be consoled by many wonderful memories of a great Dad, husband and friend.

    I'm so sorry for your loss. Growing up your Dad always made an impression. I admired him for how he always seamed to want to go ride motorcycles with us out back and how he was a extremely gifted musician. I would say your Dad was one of the cool dads always, I will miss him. Thoughts and prayers
