I was honored with a Shriners Bud Skinner Potentate 2013 Lapel pin. It is White with a big green three leaf clover and a black pickup tuck on the front. I'm sure there is someone who deserves this more than I do. I walked among my Irish ancestors in several parades and must have acquired in in one of those many events. I would consider donating this to someone who has a deep connection with Bud. You can contact me by email at [email protected]. A brief resume' regarding this token would help to make sure it goes to someone who really desires it and has the connection with that individual.

I was shocked to learn of Bud's passing. Golfing in the KAA league, socializing at the clubhouse, deer hunting at "Fred"s" camp, lots of great memories of the good times we shared. He will be missed by many. My condolence to his family.

I was very sorry to hear of your loss. Bud was a great guy and always very kind to my parents. I will miss his random appearances at NIPS to see the band. I'm glad that Colin and I were able to take part in his Potentate Ball and birthday celebration in September where he was surrounded by his friends, his children and grandchildren. I will keep you all in my thoughts and prayers.
