Although Buddy was born with an intellectual disability that provided many challenges his gregarious personality trusting spirit childlike demeanor and contagious laughter endeared him to all. Buddy had many interests and passions including dogs bowling fishing food riding in his nephews cars Westerns the original Hawaii 50 and most of all INK PENS.
