Not sure what to say?

Bud and Barbara were so caring to a couple of kids from California who were stationed at Fr. Carson in 1964-66.
I will always have found memories of working for him.
Norman went to be with our Lord in 2000. Pat Heida

Donny was a great kid growing up in Hawthore, California. I lived a cross the street from the famlies and his Mother and I were great friends. I loved the whole family, and was very lonely when they moved to Colorado. Don was a bright kid growing up and later in life and loved his job. He will be missed by all. Hazel Smith

July 4, 2010 on the Patuxtent River

Dear Barb, Bob and Rick
Your father was a very special friend as are you all and Doug and I love you always in our Lord Jesus Christ. Now we look forward to joining him in heaven when the Lord calls us home. I don't think you know this but Doug took a job in Maryland with the Federal Government on the Patuxtent Naval Air Base. He is a Public Affairs Officer and we have been here for three years. That is why we will very much miss the service at Woodmen Valley Church. We pray this...

My grandmother worked with Bud for 30+ years. I will always remember his generosity to my family. I have so many memories. He was one of kind. They don't make men like that anymore.

Bud will always be a "special" friend and brother in Christ. Truly, life and death are about God our Creator and Savior. Bud was a business associate of my husband, Ken,for many years.When Ken accepted Christ as his Savior, Bud and his dear wife, Barbara, were constant and encouraging to our walk with the Lord. Bud and Ken are now at "home" together in the presence of the Lord. Praise God for His faithfulness.
I. Thess. 4:13-18.
With deepest sympathy, Barbara and Family.

I am very sorry to hear of Bud's passing. I had the pleasure of first meeting Bud as a very young boy who was a clerk in Ben's grocery store at the corner of Cache La Pouder St and Royer St, in CS. That friendship continued later in life as Bud became a builder and developer.
Bud was one of a kind, the finest and most honest businessman you would ever hope to be associated with. I am very happy to have know him all these years and will keep his memory always.

My sincere...

The world will miss one of the finest people I ever had the fortune to work with. My prayers for his family. Sincerey, Judy Dotson

God turned another page in the book of our memories. We met Bud and his father at the North Star Grocery in 1945 where my parents shopped. Bud and I never became Buddies and I probably knew Bruce as a classmate (CSHS 1949) All that I ever knew and heard about Bud and his family was the best. We pray God's Mercy and Grace upholds each of you now.
