Please find it in your heart to help English Buford's family lay him to rest in peace and dignity.

A son, a father, a grandfather, and a dear friend to us all, that is who English, “E, “or "Mr. E" was, a man with a hugh heart, who loved gatherings and feeding everyone, from the army when he served, to the Members of the Club where he worked for over 40 years, to his friends, pastors and the homeless. Cooking for people is what made English happy, his gift came from the heart.

Have you ever tasted one of his delicious oatmeal cookies, a piece of the amazing prime rib, sauteed perch, collard greens, potato salad or perch? What about his amazing clam chowder or navy bean soup?

As receivers of his amazing gift of cooking and a lifetime of friendship, we want to give back and make sure he was put to rest with a proper burial, we decided a “gofundme” page in his honor was the way we could help.

We hope to raise at least $8,000.00 and this will cover the basics, anything extra will help the family with miscellaneous expenses. Please find It in your heart to donate to this cause.
