Loss of one of our Family...
« on: March 11, 2015, 01:38:13 AM »
Hi Folks,
 
I have been away from NLG for a while, and it is with a heavy heart and extreme sadness that I now have to post and tell you all about the loss of one of our NLG Family and one of my great friends...
 
Unfortunately we have lost our friend and family member Buzz.
 
It is really hard to have to share this and typing this little post seems like it took forever!  :cryingeyesout:
 
I had just spoke with him at length last week, and the really sad thing was that I was going to drive up to see/surprise him in a few days and bring him some stuff that I picked up for him.
 
I wanted to share a recent picture of Buzz, but instead I found this older picture of Me, Buzz, and my Mom from a past NLG 4th of July BBQ. Buzz was not much of a fan of pictures, but I like this one because of the great memories.
 
Take care everyone. Sorry to visit you all with such sad news! Buzz did not want any services, and he was 74 since I know that these questions would be asked.
 
Regards,
 
Mark

Another photo that I wanted to share...

I can't believe it I just visited with him a few months ago.
I really liked Buzz and saddened deeply by this news.
Capt any specifics you can share?
Rest in peace Buzz you will be missed.

I'm shocked and deeply saddened to hear this news.  Buzz was a icon on NLG and helped countless people here with their machines.  He was always willing to send someone a part to see if it would fix their problem.  He will be sorely missed.  RIP Buzz.

Like all here I am deeply saddened to hear of Buzz's passing. He was a joy to meet last year in Bullhead and I will always be grateful for his help, both with parts and knowledge. My condolences to Joey. Mark, Stat, Roz and all the other NLG members who had friendships with Buzz that extended beyond the NLG forum. Sorry for your loss guys...

Buzz was, and always will be, one of a kind. His abrupt comments were always entertaining. You will be missed, Buzz, RIP. Enjoy the NLG meets upstairs with our other members, you're in good company.

I too agree with Tacman, Buzz did not beat around the bush. I knew him on NLG and off and met him at NLG Headquarters.  I will miss him very much.

RIP peace C. A.  Graves (Buzz).

Damn it! I knew something was not right...I talked to him last month and he was somewhat on the mend. i was hoping he was taking it easy and just not doing too much.

God bless you Buzz...you were something else, that's for sure. You will be deeply missed...

He told me his views on funeral services as well, and said "What's the point Roz? It ain't gonna change anything."

Very sorry to hear this. Buzz  was a kind and very giving person. He truly would help anyone who needed anything. And he usually did it for free. Had a opportunity to meet him, actually he made the effort and  arrangements to come to Las Vegas. Buzz, StatFrek and I spent several hours visiting, we all went over and saw Frank (Casino Glass) , had dinner, and had a great time.  Buzz suffered a heart attack around Christmas, he said he never felt the same, was always tired. He told me that's why he didn't come on the site much, he was always watching (HIDDEN), but never chimed in, except when he felt he had to set the record straight.

Condolences to his family and his NLG family, you were a good person and will missed by many.
 Rest in Peace my friend.

Sincerely,
Jim

Very sad indeed. Never met Buzz in person but talked on several occasions. Shared truck driving tales as well as talking about our hobby. He will be missed. Rest in Peace my friend.
Quality doesn't cost. It pays.
