Buddy was a good and kind person. He always remembered the Irish Klan (Byrne) and brought them joy. I'm sorry I couldn't attend your farewell.

Love to your family.

Good old Jack Duddy! He was one of my best Laborer foremans's I ever worked for. He always could take a joke and give it right back.He looked after me like I was his own son. He will never be forgotten! God Bless him!

Buddy, as his family knew him, was one of a kind. A true Irish gentleman. He was generous to everyone and always had a story to tell. To know him was to love him.

We joked about his daily romp to work after his retirement. Inside joke of course.

His family meant the world to him. And I for one was happy to have called him cousin.

Buddy, may you rest in peace.

With Love,
Your cousin Kathy
