Di,
Our thoughts are with you at this difficult time. Bud will be missed by everyone whose life he touched. I have great memories of him joking, smiling and laughing. Bud was a great guy and will be missed by many I am sure. Take care, Di!

I first met Bud on Washington Island sometime in the early 80’s. I got to know him in a boat, what better place, and then he was kind enough to allowing me to tag along on a couple of Dear hunting trips. I will always remember Bud as one of the most generous and humorous human beings I’ve known. Bud’s love of the outdoors was quite phenomenal and he certainly fed my fever. I am left with only memories now, but then there all good. I’ll miss ya …

I am sorry to hear of Bud's passing. He was a really good friend of my grandpa's and used to take my brothers and me fishing in the summer. We looked forward to it. I remember when he was in Grumpy Old Men, him and my grandpa went to see it in the movie theater and when they got back, I went and asked him for his autograph, and I was the first to get it. He was such a great person and will be greatly missed.

Uncle Bud and Godfather has at last reached the "pot of gold" at the end of the rainbow. My memories of Uncle Bud overflow with love. Thank you Aunt Diane for taking care of Uncle Bud and I pray that you're at peace with Uncle Bud's passing. I won't be there in person for the funeral but know that my prayers and spirit are with you. Love & miss everyone.
