Christmas Day in Huntsville - The Tradition Continues!

For years Huntsville would hear the sirens all through town, but it was not for anything bad, but it was our own Buddy Stuck going through town watch for the kids to come running out of their houses and he would stop and give them a bag of candy.  I don't know who had more fun though, was it the kids because they got a bag of candy or Buddy because he got to see the smile on the kids faces when he handed them the bag of candy.  The pictures were taken by Nancy Conley.



Christmas Day 2013 the tradition continued with hearing the sirens and seeing the police car drive all through the town watching for the kids to come running out of their houses for that bag of candy.  The only thing different about this year is it was Michael Hopper that is keeping the tradition alive.  I am sure that Buddy was riding right alone the side of Michael as he drove through town where he could see the smile on the kids faces once again.  

The photo below is on that was taken by Tina Johnson.

Rest in Peace Buddy, the tradition of the kids getting a bag of candy on Christmas morning will forever live on in our town of Huntsville.
