How many thousands of people did Buddy conduct through St. Louis Cemetery #1? He was a caretaker for 41 years, sharing his stories of kindness, devotion, lost love, audacity, glamour, ignominious behavior. A favorite stop was a large camphor tree. "What kind of tree is this? What does it smell like?" Camphor smells like Vicks and is used in embalming. He enjoyed the synergy.

The last time I visited I told him I'd never forget him. He said, "When you come and cannot find me walking around, this is where I'll be. I looked for him in 1989, and that's where he was.
