Buggy, 23, passed away Saturday October 3, 2009. Buggy played football at NCHS for 4 years. He was a gifted violinist and bassist with NC orchestra. He worked for Halliburton Quanta
Pipeline and for Nugent Farms. He planned to attend college in the fall but after his step dad, Kenny’s death he stayed at home with his mother, Lisa.
Buggy’s favorite things were playing with Ross, taking care of his mom, taking Ross
to buy DS games, riding Buck, taking Ross to the movies, playing games and taking care of Ross, running Frog around everywhere and complaining Frog had more of a social life, fussing with Will and never getting anywhere, laughing at Joseph while
always having his back, going to see his dad, Norman, planning to fish – not. Last week he just bought his first fishing license and rod and reel.
Buggy was saved at 12 years old and he is in heaven with Kenny and Frog. Buggy always
said “I was never bad, just misunderstood.”
