Buddy Stapp slipped away from us in the early morning of July 4th, 2020, leaving with a bang. He is survived by his beautiful loving wife of 43 years, Anna Ruterman Stapp, children Diana (Rey) Macias, Judy (Nick) Armijo, Tim (Sylvia) Dabovich, Shelly (Jim) Daniel, Rick (Lucy) Stapp, and his grandchildren and great grandchildren. Buddy played many rolls as husband, Dad, Papaw, and friend. He loved to play golf, sing along while his son-in-law played the guitar, and he really enjoyed eating his sweets. He loved his family and friends with every ounce of his heart. Everything he did, he did for others without hesitation and with his heart leading the way. Buddy had a truly unique ability to make special relationships with everyone he knew, no mater how you met him or how long or how little you knew him. He valued everyone individually. You could walk in a room as a stranger to him but by the time you left, you were friends. Everyone in the room had a special kind of bond with him that will always stay between you and him. Buddy was a good listener, kind, loving, funny, forgiving, and generous in so many ways. He will be deeply missed by all those he left behind.
