BUFFY'S ASHES WHERE DIVIDED INTO TWO SEPARATE BOXES. HER AUNT CONNIE TOOK 1/4 OF THE ASHES AND SPREAD THEM AT MAGGIE VALLEY BEHIND THE JONATHAN CREEK INN. BUFFY FELT THAT MAGGIE VALLEY WAS THE CLOSEST THING TO HEAVEN ON EARTH. HER ASHES ARE ALSO AT THE FOOT OF HER COUSIN JONATHAN JEFFORDS GRAVE IN ANTIOCH BAPTIST CHURCH CEMETERY. SHE IS WITH HER GRANDMOTHER AND GREAT GRANDPARENTS AND ALSO CLOSE BY ARE ALL RELATIVES. SHE ALWAYS SAID SHE WANTED TO COME BACK TO SOUTH CAROLINA AND MAKE IT HOME. THIS WAS AS CLOSE AS WE COULD MAKE HER DREAM COME TRUE. WHEN HER DOG 'BABY' DIED JULY 29, 1999 A PORTION OF HER ASHES WHERE PLACED WITH 'BABY' , SHE LOVED HER LITTLE DOG VERY MUCH. HER BROTHER, KELP, SPREAD A PORTION OF HER ASHES WHERE HER FATHERS ASHES WHERE DROPPED FROM AN AIRPLANE IN AN AREA HE SKY DIVED ON THE FIRST ANNIVERSARY OF HER DEATH, IN EL PASO, TEXAS. THE REMAINDER OF HER ASHES WILL BE PLACED WITH HER MOTHER WHEN HER TIME COMES. HER ASHES ARE IN FOUR STATES. SHE LIKED TO TRAVEL AND THIS IS ONE WAY HER LIFE HAS BEEN HONORED. THE REQUEST WAS MADE AT THE TIME OF HER DEATH TO HAVE MONEY DONATED TO A LOCAL NURSING HOME. THE MONEY WAS USED TO PURCHASE A 100 GALLON AQUARIUM FOR FISH FOR THE RESIDENTS TO ENJOY. SHE STILL HAD MANY FLOWERS AND SHE WILL ALWAYS BE REMEMBERED AND THERE WILL BE "NO MORE TEARS IN HEAVEN". HER AUNT CONNIE PLACED HER STONE AT THE FOOT OF HER SON JONATHAN'S GRAVE WITH THIS SAME MEMORY " NO MORE TEARS IN HEAVEN".
