My condolences to the entire family. Dana and I met when I was just 16 and we worked together. We have remained friends for 50 years. I know through her that her brother was a wonderful, kind person. God bless you

I will never forget Bud. From the first day I met him, I knew he would make a huge impact on the world. He had incredible confidence and he was a leader in our youth group. I also remember his great performance as Ali Hakim in our school musical "Oklahoma." May he find peace now in the arms of the Lord.
