Varnell, when thinking or talking of 'Bud,' one can't help but see and feel the loud but infectious laughter in and of his forever adolescent soul. Whether unwittingly or because there was simply no resisting his charisma, you too would become caught up and revert to that same youthful spirit that he conveyed on whomever he shared a space with.
That kind of remarkable essence can never be lost to the frailness of death. 'One short sleep and he awakes to eternal life and salvation. There, death himself doth die.'
Peace be upon James Roland Bridgers, and may his memory be a blessing to the family.
