Please accept my deepest sympathies.  Buddy was a very kind, generous and loving person.  I can't believe that he has left us.  I will always have fond memories of him.  

Our prayers of sympathy to all of Earl’s family.  The entire family of Rose Automotive have many good memories of Earl.  Sincerely, Ed and Karen Larkin

He was my best friend in high school and during our college years. We broke many color barriers together, during the late 1960's and early 1970's. We went to each other's homes. We worked together during the summers, on the Newport Recreation Department. He was authentic in every way. I loved Buddy as a brother. I will truly miss him. You be safe.

So sorry to hear this. I knew Buddy from first through high school. Sorry I lost contact with him but glad Facebook connected us. He was a character and a good hearted guy. RIP old friend. 

I’m so sad to hear about Buddy. I’ve known him since childhood. I was happy we were able to reconnect after all these years. Rest in peace my dear friend. I’m so glad you are pain free.  You will be terribly missed. Prayers for your family. 

Buddy and I have known one another since elementary school and thru high school. 
We, along with a good number of our classmates, have reunited in the past couple of years. Buddy, like many of us, experienced a lot of enjoyment in our monthly gatherings. We were old friends from a long past time in our lives. 
We hated to see our friend go thru all he has gone thru, but are happy that his troubles are over! We will have a drink in your honor, my friend!
