I met Leroy in grammar school and went all the way through high school with him. He was quiet and always had a terrific smile for everyone. We had been writing back and forth on email about our childhood days before he passed away. I cherish that time and reliving our childhood, our friends and our teachers. I will always miss him, but know that he is with God. We love you Lorraine and we are always here for you.

Dear Lorraine and family, I am so sorry for your loss and grief from the passing of your dear husband, father and grandfather. When we as Christians say 'passing,' we mean passing from death unto life. Eternal life in heaven with Jesus for those who have put their faith and trust in Jesus Christ, God's one and only son, for our salvation. I know that Buddy did this. So take your comfort in that fact ... He is alive forevermore in heaven with Jesus. I pray God's comfort for your sore and suffering hearts. No one can ever take his place. Just know that Johnny and I are praying for your comfort and God's sustaining power for you. Love, blessings and prayers, Joanie and John Evans

Dear Lorraine, May our God bring you Peace and Comfort, and may you be assured that your loved one will be with you always in love and spirit. With Deepest Sympathy, Grace

So sorry to hear about LeRoy's passing. I worked as the secretary in the Industrial division with LeRoy for nearly 10 years. He was always so nice to me. I still have a Time Life CD of Country Hits that he gave to me. Every time I listen to it, I think of him. Please know that my thoughts are with you at this difficult time.

My condolences to the family of LeRoy (Buddy) although we weren't close friends I do remember him from our years at Pomona High we graduated the same year....may you find comfort in knowing that he will always be with you in your heart...and even tho the pain and hurt never completely leaves it does lessen with time.......

I have known LeRoy (Buddy) since 1945 in kindergarten. He has been a good friend since. We were regular email pals lately and it was a lot of fun going over the many years and events passed Tom remembers all the good times they shared in sports. We are both going to miss this dear man. Our thoughts and prayers go out to his family.

I worked with LeRoy for a number of years and shared many stories and experiences. This is such a shock to me and he will be missed by many. My heart goes out to you Lorraine and your family for your loss. God Bless!!

Very sorry to hear about Buddy's passing. Praise God for his faith in the resurrection, and may God grant you (Lorraine) His grace as you go through the adjustment after many years together.

For several years my wife, Phyllis, and I regularly attended the same church as Bud and Lorraine, Mt. Scott Church of God. I think of them as good friends from years ago. Lorraine even gave massages, and as we age can use more. Sending love.
