  3. In Loving Memory of Buzzy.
    Buzzy was one of the kindest, most compassionate sounds I’ve ever met – sometimes the loudest, always direct, and endlessly honest. The first time I met her, she had just undergone extreme dental work. Despite being innpain, she was still delightful- something that says so much about a person’s character.
    Buzzy truely valued honesty above all else. She might not like a situation or view bit she always respected the truth and would call you out if you were less than genuine.
    Her laugh was one that touched my soul.
    Though she faced many hardships, that only made her stronger, yet she still had the ability to be tender and loving. Her passion for her family was unwavering. She was a wonderful friend and, above all, an incredible mother who always wanted the best for her children.
