That he was a friend makes me a richer person for having known him.
Yvonne and my hearts go out to the family and if there is anything we can do to help please call on us to do so.
What a pleasure to have a friend like Buddy, he will be remembered.
All of my thoughts and prayers extend out to Buddie’s family and loved ones. The world see’s very few like Buddy. He was a friend and teammate for many years and will remain so. His greeting smile and passion for life and for the sport he loved like so may of us do will not be forgotten and will be carried in out hearts and onto every pitch. We all have been blessed to know him.
All of our prayers and thoughts are with the Bacs family….
Chuck, Carrie, Tatum
Amidst national anxiety and uncertainty, I find this news extremely difficult to bear. My heart is very heavy, but I will always remember the laughing, smiling, joking “Buddy” on the soccer pitch. My sincerest condolences to your family.

Andy was one of my best friends when we stationed in Hawaii. I lost track of Andy years ago. It breaks my heart to learn that he has passed away.
Buddy was a good soccer captian, and a great friend,
We will miss him dearly.I learned a lot from Buddy on the soccer pitch and valued his friendship off.We will always remember Buddy.
Buddy was my OverThirty soccer coach. He was a good coach/soccer player and a great person. He and his family will be in my thoughts and prayers.
Buddy was unique in his 35 years in this world and though very painful for the survivors but he did go in the unique way too.
Buddy was very encouraging to me when I began playing soccer a few years ago. He was always ready with advice about the game, a great team mate in pick-up and a worthy opponent in matches. God Bless You Andy, Wendy & Family. God Bless You Buddy Bacs.
Buddy will live on in the memories of all who knew him.
A wonderful person who lived life to the fullest.
He will be missed by eveyone.
My prayers and love go out to the family.

Buddy,It’s been almost a month and the precious memories of you are in everyone’s heart. We all love you and miss you a lot! I can just smile with tears in my eyes when I think of your great Hungarian/Irish Jeannette, I hope you’ll forgive me..: sense of humor, the best I’ve seen around. You are missed by all of us. Erzsi
Buddy’s sense of humor and his kind heart will endure him in our hearts forever. He will be deeply missed.
Buddy’s warm smile and great humor will be missed in life and on the soccer field. My deepest regards to the family.
During times of grief, sometimes the only comfort is a good memory. I knew Buddy many years ago through my brother Britt. He was a very genuine person, and I will always remember him for his patience. He taught me how to drive his “stick shift” Honda when I was fifteen years old 15 years ago!. I almost wrecked about a hundred times, but Buddy never once lost his “cool.” He would just tell me, “Don’t worry, you’ll get it.” Needless to say, he was shifting the gears and telling me when to push in the clutch. But that didn’t matter – I was doing a GREAT job anyway!
I am very sad that Buddy is gone. This world was a much better place with him in it. His memory will always bring me a smile. Your family will be in my thoughts and prayers.
With Much Sympathy,
Brandi Stockley Pagano
He will Be Greatly missed by all that knew him
I am a friend of Tracy and Dino Scordos. Although I never met Andy, he must have been very special. Dino spoke very fondly of Andy and your family. I am saddened by your lost and I pray that God will be with you in your time of grief. My condolensces.

I am so sorry about your loss of buddy. He was a great friend to me and many others.I worked with charlie for about 7 years and in that time i had the pleasure of meeting his brother buddy.He took to everyone he met,and everyone took to him as well.I will miss him but i will remember his friendship threw charlie,again i am sorryand wish the best for the family and loved ones.
I didn’t know Buddy extremely well, just from playing soccer with and against him. Whether it was Saturday afternoon pick-up or Southside end of season tournament, Buddy was always smiling. I guess that’s what really made him stand out. My prayers are with the family and close friends of Andy Bacs, Jr. during this time of loss.
Buddy, you will be missed.

I knew Andy from soccer and wanted to say what a joy and pleasure it was to have known him. Andy and his family and friends are in my heart and prayers.
I only knew Buddy from soccer, he was a true joy to be around every week at the soccer pitch.
I know he will be sorely missed by those whose lives were touched by him and the community will miss the opportunities a person of his caliber would continue to bring to all of our lives.
I only played with Buddy for 1 season and he made a everlasting impression on my life.I wish I had the oppertunity to known Buddy for a much longer time, I enjoyed being around him, he was a great competitior on the soccer field, and a great person off the field.I will remember him always
I served with Andy in the Army. We went to basic training together as well as serving in the same platoon in the 25th.
Andy was the greatest guy there was.No matter what,he always had your back. He was truly an original in every way.
I would have loved to see him again,and I am truly sorry that we lost contact.
There are many other guys from our unit who miss him as well.on facebook we have a group Deeds Not Words. Bravo Company 3/22 1989-1992 if you ever wish to drop a post.
Andy will be truly missed by all of us.
I will always remember Buddy as a spunky, energetic, and funny kid. You all were such good friends to me and my family when we lived in Willow Wood. I remember one particular time that Buddy heard the song Desperado by the Eagles and he cried. He was sensitive too. I will really miss him and you will be in my prayers. Buddy is with God now and with Nudge Mama and Grandma in heaven. I love you all and wish you God’s peace.
