Buddy taught his children to have a strong work ethic, a desire to stay
physically active, to practice their Catholic faith, and how to be obsessive
compulsive with a spreadsheet.
Buddy retired from Chevron Corporation (Unocal Corporation) after 25 years
as an accountant. He attended Catholic High School in Little Rock, and
graduated with a degree in accounting from the University of Arkansas at
Little Rock.
He enjoyed playing golf with his retired oil and gas friends several times a
week. He was a collector of "unique" treasures, and found pleasure in riding
his lawnmower around his country property.
Buddy was an active member of St. Matthias Catholic Church in Magnolia,
Texas, where he was a faithful and charitable servant of God.
He was an amazing husband, father, grandfather, brother, uncle and friend.
We are certain he is in heaven trying to get that hole-in-one he never made
on Earth. He will be dearly missed by all who knew him.
