What happened to Buzzy? A sister wants answers about her brother's death

He was a quiet tenant who paid his rent on time. He smiled and waved to his landlord every day as he left his tiny apartment at the back of Spangler's Farm Supply store on Route 20 just over the Buckingham County line. In fact, so reliable was the daily sight of Marion "Buzzy" Ennis hopping on his beloved red Vespa scooter to ride into Scottsville that when Sam Spangler realized he hadn't seen his tenant– or the scooter– for several days, he quickly became concerned.

 

So on Tuesday afternoon, May 16, 2006, at least three days after he'd last seen Ennis, Spangler and one of his employees knocked on the door of the apartment Ennis had occupied for nearly seven months. When no one answered, Spangler used his key to open the door and called Ennis' name as he entered.
