My Uncle Buddy

My Uncle was One of a kind!! Growing up I would often spend my summers with him and My Auntie Sarah! The Boys were like the brothers I never had growing up. I always felt as if I was apart of their family! My uncle was always someone I could count on and my auntie was someone I could always confide in. I miss all of them & will cherish every childhood memory I have! From holidays to birthdays and everything in between.
