Dear Raymond & Ryan,
The memories I have of your Father were in his younger
years. He would march in the high school band and my
children would enjoy seeing him playing his saxophone.
Because of the age difference my children enjoyed playing
with there Uncle Ray and Aunt Patty. He will be missed and
our love goes out to you.
Love Aunt Abby

Ruth:
Our sincerest sympathy to you and the family. There are no words that can describe our sadness. A special neighbor and friend, we will always grateful for his presence in our lives. Ray's and Rufus's visits will definitely leave a big void in Bud's daily life. What two men could talk about for hours baffled me. The companionship shared between these two will be treasured. To you Ruth, our thoughts and prayers are with you.
