God Bless You, Buddy..You’ll not be forgotten……

may he rest in peace. my sincere condolences to his family and legion of fans.

Buddy and Buck together again !

So true. He will never be forgotten. The first driver I ever met in the pits of Columbia Speedway. He was truly a gentle giant.

I belive you took these at Columbia Devin.

Awesome thought, Harvey! RIP Buddy!

RIP Buddy you will be missed

Yes, I took these in April, 2009. What a great day it was!

Sometimes words are not adequate at a time like this. I’m thinking about what to write and what to say. Should have that figured out by next week.

Pettys. Top shelf as always.

Rest in Peace my friend . Now you and your dad will forever be together

RIP Buddy. When I got the car from Bud Moore for Dale to drive at Charlotte, it was a car that Buddy had driven previously and he was most gracious to stop by and give us some tips on that particular car/chassis. He was always fun to be around and provided us all with many pleasant memories.
