I will pray for your family so the sadness may soon be replaced by the fondness of his memory. Bubba was my friend and thoughts of our times together will always make me smile.

I'm so sorry for your loss. I didn't really know Bubba, but I know he was my father's first cousin. My father was Harold Delk Hightower. May God's love bring you all much comfort.

Mrs Libby, Russ, and Will, I am so sorry for your loss. I had the distinct honor of being in the same group with Bubba in a few tournaments. He was truly larger than life. I'll never forget the first one. Bubba noticed that I was a fumbling bag of nervers so he told me to relax and he made a couple of funny comments about my golf swing and we laughed the rest of the way around. I still enjoy the stories of his heroic feats on the golf course. He will be missed.
