James C. Budd

Jim and I were good friends when we were at the old U of Illinois, Navy Pier in Chicago where we shared many friends (Andrea, Jo, Joanie, Jim, Mario, ...). He was enamored over a French exchange student. Marilyn Monroe was his love goddess. We shared many cups of my mother's coffee in the wee hours ("What can you two be talking about at three in the morning?"--Mom).

Jim would have turned 79 yesterday April 29th.

Your the best friend anyone could ask for!
You are a good man and I love you so much!
