Honnie and family,

I am so sorry for your loss, but grateful that your father always had you by his side. May his memory be a blessing to all who knew him.

Bud was my husband's classmate at both Deerfield as well as he Naval Academy and I so enjoyed knowing him as John's friend and close friend to Stew Hancock. My greatest pleasure was to sing along with these guys, as I knew many of he harmonies to the old songs and we had a wonderful time together. We saw each other at reunions and I felt that Bud and Stewie were two of John closest friends from that era in his life. John passed away peacefully a year ago in October.

Helen,
Sorry to hear about your father's passing. My sincere condolences to you and your family.

I want to express my condolences for him at this time.

They both were involved in many community activities and programs. My daughter and I went to visit them in Maine on Orr's Island. What a remarkable man and such a wonderful life he led. I remember one time I called Sarah in Maine and Bud answered the phone and out of nowhere he started reciting Shakespeare to me. I'll never...
