SOUTH PORTLAND - More than 250 people gathered at Holy Cross Church this morning for the funeral of U.S. Army Spc. Justin Buxbaum, 23, who died last month in Afghanistan.


Buxbaum, who was killed in a non-combat accident in Kushamond, Afghanistan, was laid to rest with full military honors.

Gov. John Baldacci joined friends and family members at Holy Cross Church for the funeral of Buxbaum, a 2004 graduate of South Portland High School.

Buxbaum was sent to Afghanistan in April after completing two tours in Iraq.

Farewell Soldier I honor your service, Amen
It always hurts more when they are a hometown boy
Aint but three things in this world thats worth a solitary dime,
But old dogs and children and watermelon wine.
