God bless his family. I will send a prayer Heavenward for Jodi and all whose lives Buzz touched.
Damn this disease!

I have been thinking of Buzz lately
and I appreciate you Patch for letting us know about his passing. Buzz was a stalwart for me when I first joined the board. I loved his humor, his kind support, and his no-nonsense attitude. I beleive I see that twinkle in his eye.
Fair winds Buzz!

So sorry to read this. In my first days of searching here, I came across many of Buzz's (yes Trubrit...Buzzard) posts and found so much comfort and hope. I felt like I was constantly saying to my husband "well, this guy Buzz says..." Though I only had direct contact with him once or twice when he answered my questions, I feel like I knew him.
I wish peace and comfort to his family.

Rest in peace my friend. The kindness you showed to me during George's journey will never be forgotten. Your journey here is now over so when you get up to heaven, find my George, he is a great guy to swap fishing stories with. Of course Cynthia's Rick will be there analyzing the stories, Blake will be there to work out the statistics, Jenny will be laughing and dear Lisa will be there praying for the whole bunch.

I have been expecting to see this post.I am saddened,
I think Buzz was the first person to greet me when I signed on here the first time.He teased me about my moniker being "JayLo"(J-Lo )....that is until he found out that JayLo is my fat cat
The first to friend me too.He was a thoughtful, fun man.
My deepest condolences to his family.
Rest peacefully dear Clift.
Until we meet again,
Your friend, Pat aka JayLo

That is so sad but I'm glad that he is not suffering anymore. He tried everything he could to continue on for his family and did bravely. Was such a wonderful father and such a good Christian man. May God guide him home to his mansion in the heavens. We will miss you deeply. My hope and peace goes out to his loved ones in this trying time.
