i didn't know this was here or i would have spoken up sooner. My uncle Bugs was a great man. he had the best heart an always help ppl even ppl who may not have help him. i road with my uncle on the buggy and yes he drank but come on get off your high horse who of you haven't dont the same thing. He never used that safety belt as u call it.i was post to have gone with him that day and if i had i wouldn't have use it ether. All i know is maybe you should know a person befor you speak somethings. And that my famliy has lost 2 members this year and will never be the same. And yes TERRY and RIK think befor you speak next time he has a every big famliy and many freinds wich was his famliy to so with your words you hurt alot. i hate to think someone has thought that of my uncle.i hope to god his soul is at rest. i know i speak for alot with i say the pain of lossing Bugs is still very realy and very painful for many.it's hard to think of a world with out him and hubby in it.
