    Suzanne and I send our heart felt condolences to Barbara and their families. Bunny and Barbara’s friendship has meant so much to us. Over the last number years we spent time together in Raleigh, Blackstone, Natural Bridge, and Seaford. Our friendship transcended time and it feels like we were friends for a lifetime. Bunny was a natural clown and we spent a lot of our time together laughing and giggling at life. He the loved the Lord, had a passion for life and loved deeply. He is at home with his Lord and awaits his Spiritual Family. He will be surely missed.
