John J. "Bud" Blaschke

Popcorn was uncle Bud's claim to fame, no doubt about it! He always put it in the brown paper grocery bags. Do you all remember when he had the motorcycle or motorscooter deal? I was probably jr high age and would go over on Saturdays and iron for grandma and clean house, uncle Bud was giving me a ride home on the mean machine and he made me wear a football helmet and I was mad cause I looked like a dork in it!!!
Ahhhh the memories, love you uncle Buddy

Uncle Buddy will be missed. He was the most kind uncle we could have, always spoiling us with tons of popcorn and kool aid when we were little. We loved to go visit him.

I'll never forget Uncle Buddy making a huge -- and I mean HUGE -- bowl of buttered popcorn at his house for me and my sister Karen when we were little. He also had the first TV remote control I had ever seen, one of those clicker kinds in fact. We'll miss you very much Uncle Buddy!
