Bubba was a wonderful friend we were in the optimist club together and could fix a ribeye just the way you wanted it. He had many great friends that I met over the years in our club. He can now rest in peace.
He was a great man! I took care of him at Landmark. He was always so nice and sweet. Never a dull moment with Bubba. Rest in peace buddy. You will be missed.
