Buz

Buz is a Cincinnati native, a proud Denison University grad, and the kind of dad who signs his letters with a doodle, a quote, or both.

He's been married to his bride, Betsy, for over 40 years and together they raised three kids: John, Annie, and Rosie.

Buz has been writing letters to his kids for as long as they can remember. Camp letters. College letters. Tuesday-morning-just-thinking-about-you letters. Some funny. Some deep. All filled with heart. Over the years, his writing spilled over to friends, neighbors, even strangers — anyone who needed a reminder that they matter.

He's a recent PhD graduate at age 67 (proof that it's never too late), and when he's not writing, you can find him splitting firewood, chasing after his two extremely naughty Westies (Pearl and Piper), laughing at his own jokes, or enjoying the peace of northern Michigan.

More than anything, Buz just loves being a dad. He's good at it. And now, he wants to be a little bit of a dad to you, too — one handwritten letter at a time.
