A Cobb County couple found dead on Monday is being remembered by neighbors in their close-knit community.
The bodies Elrey "Bud" Runion and his wife June were found in Telfair County on Monday after a three-day search. Police say the couple were lured to McRae, Ga. to buy a 1966 Mustang from a man who responded to a Craigslist ad.
Jay Towns was charged with murder and armed robbery on Tuesday.
Meanwhile, back in the Runion's Marietta neighborhood, the couple were remembered as wonderful neighbors who gave back to their community.
"He was a great man," said Bessie Brown. "All the neighbor folks knew him. He was great with the kids."
"He had a charity that he did -- Bud's Bikes -- that he did every year, and this whole yard would be filled with bikes," said Jamie Knowles.
Through that charity, Bud Runion delivered restored bikes to underprivileged children at Christmas.
The Runions had lived in their Marietta home for more than three decades and clearly made a big impact on the neighborhood.
