I am Hal Unterberger and I was Buddy's neighbor and friend in the 80's. My mother spotted the notice in the trib. the other day and let me know. All those years ago, when I knew Buddy well, he was the same then as I'm sure he was until his tragic passing: a kind, unpretentious "mench". Buddy never knew from hate or negativity. What I remember about Buddy was all good. There wasn't an unkind bone in his body. Although we were in different cities for about 15 years, I only have the most positive memories of my old friend. My deepest sympathies go out to the Aronson family at this very sad time. We are all better people in this crazy world for having known this sweet man.

Dear Ira and Steve:



I'm very sorry to hear about your loss. Buddy and I worked together years ago and became very good friends. During this time I learned what a generous and good hearted person he was. I like to believe that the two of us thought of each other often through out the years and know in my heart that we did. Buddy will always be one of my happiest memories.



My sympathies and condolences to both of you and the entire family.

Our deepest sympathy to the Aronson family. Buddy was a great friend of mine. We have known each other for many years. I was with him on Wednesday April 5, 2006 at the Blackhawk game and made plans to see him on Friday April 7th at the next Blackhawk game. It was very disturbing to receive a call from his friend Jamie on Thursday a.m. to relay that Buddy died that morning. May a higher power bless you and your family through the coming days and remember that Buddy was loved by many. He will be greatly missed.

Dear Nancy,Jackie,and Heidi:



You know how I felt about Buddy, we was not brothers by blood, we were brothers by heart and I we will always love you all the same way. We had a lot of good memories and shared a lot of good things and times together. Every day we wake up, we will always think of buddy and smile because that was the way we were. Everyday was started with you all in mind. Whether it was the doctor, lunch, shopping, tae kwon do or just chilling out. I knew it was going to be a exciting day because you and buddy would be waiting on us to call or come by. I saw a hawk in the sky today and I thought about buddy, all I could say is go blackhawks and smile. You two were an amazing couple, full of life and new ideas every day. Never a dull moment. May our heavenly father Jehovah bless his soul as we look foward to his resurrection in the new system, where we will be chilling together again. Nancy no matter where you are or how far you go, we will always be here for you. You know I will be there for you and my nieces. You and my brother buddy would have did the same for me and this is something that I do know. You have my number, so don't hesitate to call. Always remember our cicle!!!!! We love you buddy,nancy,jackie & heidi aronson always, Uncle Vearnest and Auntie Victoria

I am very sorry for your loss. I met Buddy when I was in 6th grade and Buddy was always a nice and kind person. He loved hockey and was a big Chicago Blackhawk fan. Buddy was a giving person and I know he will be missed by his family and friends.
