Condolence: I have very fond memories of "Punky" with Boy Scout Troop 919. "Punky" went on many trips with the troop to New York and a Yankees baseball game, Nags Head and Camp Shenandoah. We always had good times together. I was very blessed to visit with "Punky" at the Brian Center just a few weeks ago. A super guy and he will be missed by all. God Bless his wife and children.

Condolence: Sylvia and family, My deepest sympathies to to all of you on the loss of "Punky."

I will keep all of you in my thoughts. Buddy Buck
