Not sure what to say?

I've known Vincent since the 11th grade. We all use to play hide and seek in the dark, we had so much fun together growing up. He was everyones friend. what a sweetheart he was.

Vincent and I had such a good time in high school band playing our clarinets and vying for who was best, trading chairs frequently and giggling over everything worth gossiping about. I didn't see him often after high school but he took care of both of my parents with kindness and compassion when they died. I'll always remember him as a special friend.

What a great guy. Bud and I worked together at Holt Funeral Home. So caring with the families and everyone concerned. I was blessed to have known him

Bud was a wonderful man who always had time to stop and talk. He was gracious and kind to everyone he met!!

He was a good friend and will be missed by all the folks who knew and worked with him. Nancy Kattnig Colette

Bud was such a beautiful man. I´ve known him most of my life. His kindness to me and my family on many occasions never ceased wanting nothing in return. He will be missed by the community. He is reunited with his beautiful wife Carol. Condolences to the family.

Such a kind man! I remember him fondly from Canon Market and he was a tremendous help at my dad´s funeral. Sending love to his family.

I will sure miss seeing Mr. Gentry. We live down the road and he would always wave and say hi when I drove or walked by. Always wanted me to call him Bud. I'm so sorry for the families loss.

I worked with Bud for a short time. He was always such a good person. He will be missed.
