His beloved Wife, Carolyn Bagby writes:

He was my one and only true love. I loved him with all my heart and soul. I'm going to miss that old rascal. When I called him an old rascal he would get the biggest shit eating grin on his face. I loved that. Although his mind was going sometimes he would just look up at me and I knew he loved me. We had a lifetime of memories…married for 53 years and went steady 3 years before that. We raised a lot of hell together. I know he's waiting for me on the other side.

From his Children:

Our dad…to my Mom, hun or honey…to family, Dad or Pops…to old friends, Bud or Buddy…He was a stubborn son of a lol. He had a hard shell but he did truly care about the people in his life. He lived by his own rules. He taught us to be strong in spirit, body and mind. In his younger days he lived hard and fast. In the end his mind and body were holding him back. Though he is no longer here in our day to day lives, he is now free to be him. He's racing motorcycles in Heaven with his old friend Randy. He's visiting with his long lost family and friends. He's living his best life now. You are loved and will be missed.

No services are scheduled at this present time.
