He was an absolute f*ckwit
When I was a little girl, my parents and I would come to visit my brother, Dave, and my sister-in-law, Justina, and my nieces and nephew, nearly every summer. Bud and Pat would always stop in to see us while we were in town. I remember when I was about 7 years old, Bud and Pat came over for dinner. Bud was cutting up a bunch of strawberries in the kitchen and we were all visiting. He paid special attention to me, made me laugh, involved me in the conversation, and made absolutely sure I had plenty of strawberries to eat...I’m positive he let me have most of them. He was so warm and had such a gentle, loving way about him. Every interaction I’ve had with him through the years was special and he made everyone feel that way. I remember this memory so vividly and I am now 31 years old with children of my own...I hope to make my family half as proud as I know his family is of him. Rest In Peace Bud...Your legacy lives on! Love, Alissa, Nick, Lucas, & Lennox
What a beautiful obituary. I am honored to have met him and work with him as a crossing guard.
