Sonny, Contact Ron Elliott.

**i haven't talked to Ron but it's my understanding that it was Buddy's wishes not to have a memorial service etc, I won't say anything else because I don't have first hand knowledge. I hope Buddy is at rest. **

Take care

I read where there will be viewing or a service. That was Buddys wish and it should be honored.
