Thomas Edwin “Buster” Story, age 73, of Savannah, GA (formerly from Douglas, GA) passed away on Thursday, February 10, 2022 at his residence following a brief illness.

 

Buster was born September 25, 1948 in Douglas, GA to the late Dannie Austin Story and Audrey Jean Joyce. He was preceded in death by his parents, a son Thomas Scott Story, 2 brothers Donnie A Story & Lonnie E Story.
