Dear Bev, Kipper, Matt, Mark & Reggie: I was deeply saddened to hear of Bud's passing. I have many great memories of my time growing up in T-burg with your family. Sometimes I can still hear the cow bell! May God comfort you during this time and continue to flood your hearts with His love and Bud's loving memories. My thoughts and prayers are with you all.

Aunt Bev and all my cousins, I just heard of Bud's passing, and want to be sure you know that my heart goes out to you. I hope you are strengthened and encouraged, having known his gifts all your lives. Although I do not remember him well, what I do recall is filled with fondness. Be well, and may you find peace in your wonderful memories. Liese Ness (Hamburg, NY).

Fond memories come to mind when I think of your husband/father at St. James Church, the T-burg Golf Course or babysitting for the family. He always had a big smile and was very kind…just a pleasure to have known.
