Was injured as a Military Policeman & later institutionalized in Nashville. He never fully recovered. Though he did not serve in the War theater he actually gave his life in service due to his injuries, but with no war credits.
I remember Uncle Buddy as a kind loving Uncle who enjyed the outdoors and enjoyed showing his nephews around the farm. They always got a lesson in the natural sciences concerning the various plants & trees and animals when he was home. WA Jan 15, 2008.

I (C. Wayne Austin) recall that funeral. It was the 2nd family funeral (as a 11th grade youngster. However it was the first funeral I recall of the various Aunts and Uncles. There was a snow storm that day and we slipped and slide on the highway all the way from the funeral home 18+ miles to Lynnville, Tennessee for the burial. Sad day for my Mom and her two sisters.
