    Jimmy was such a kind soul. Never had a bad thing to say about anyone. He had such a calm peacefulness about him. A wonderful husband and father. He asked me one time when is it all going to end some of the stresses in life we go through with children. Well you did it all with such grace. I’ll miss you dearly. Rest in peace my sweet friend❤️🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻

    My Mom and I were just sitting here talking about some things from the days of growing up, and we started a story with, “remember when Jimmy Busz….” Which then turned into me finding this obituary. I’m so saddened to hear about Jim’s passing. I’m so thankful for the childhood memories and the ability to say, “remember when Jim Busz…” We had some good times back then…. Beach trips, Phillies games, crab feasts, church activities, and more…. Sending my condolences to entire Busz family 💗 Amy Pettyjohn
