Our Annual Parrot Head Fundraising
Party for the Alzheimer Community Care of Palm Beach, Martin & St. Lucie
Counties
is held in September or October every year ... Alzheimers is a devastating
disease that robs you of your recent memories ... the memory of new
friends & new places. We wanted our party to be a good time with PHriends
& ultimately be a LASTING Memory for those came to party with a purpose.
Memory
Night seemed to be the perfect name for our Annual Parrot Head
Fundraising Party for the Alzheimer Community Care of Palm Beach & Martin
County.
We picked Alzheimer's as our recipient of our big
fundraising party because it is a charity near & dear to Jimmy's Heart
.... His dad was diagnosed with Alzheimers in 1995. Seeing his father fall
to this disease inspired Jimmy to write a song about his dad & Alzheimers.
The song is called False Echoes & is on his Banana Wind CD. The club was
formed in 1996 & the Parrot head ties that binds us, pulled at the heart
strings of the founding members of the club ... for it could be our
fathers, mothers, sisters, brothers, PHriends or even ourselves that could
develop Alzheimer's. The National Alzheimer's organization is hard at work
trying to find a cure but what about those who have it now ... like
Jimmy's dad or your dad or mine? We then decided to pick the Alzheimer's
Community Care of Palm Beach, Martin and St Lucie Counties because it is a
local charity ... All the money we raise after expenses stays here locally
to help fund the 3 counties 9 Day Care Centers. That's why we are the
Parrot Heads FOR the Palm Beaches - And in September of 1996, Memory Night
was hatched!

Some of its Magic, Some of its Tragic
  
James Delaney Buffett, Jr.
|
Mr. James Delaney Buffett, Jr. (J.D.) --age 83, a native of
Pascagoula, MS and a resident of Point Clear, AL passed away Thursday
May 1, 2003 from Alzheimer's disease. He is preceded in death by his
parents, James Delaney and Hilda Seymour Buffett, one brother, William
Norman Buffett, two sisters, Catherine Buffett Rappaport, and Patricia
Buffett Lumpkin. J.D is survived by his wife of 61 years, Mary Loraine
Peets Buffett; one son, James William Buffett (Jane); two daughters,
Loraine Marie Buffett McGuane (Thomas) and Lucy Anne Buffett. He
leaves behind nine devoted grandchildren; Heather Hume Nelson, Mara
Delaney Buffett, Melanie
Leigh Buffett, Savannah Jane Buffett, Anne Buffett McGuane, Sarah

and Maggie McGuane Kim, three great-grandchildren and one on the way.
J. D. enlisted in the Army Corps of Engineers on his birthday in
1941. He was stationed in Maine, Montana, Africa, and India, and was
discharged from service as Master Sergeant in February 1946.
He worked at Alabama Dry Docks for 35 years, starting in the
Estimating Department and upon retirement, managing government
contracts. He was an active participant in maritime and industry
affairs on the Gulf Coast.
Residing on the shore of Mobile Bay for the past 27 years, J. D. rose
most days at dawn to enjoy a pot of strong coffee before heading
outdoors to check the crab traps and walk the dogs.
Everyday, he relished in the accomplishments of his three children and
their families and cherished the
companionship of his best friend and life partner, Peets.
The family has requested that, in lieu of flowers, donations be sent
to
