Sorry to hear of Bud's passing. I will miss seeing him shopping at Nob Hill. He always had something funny to say. Bud gave me two bird houses that he made and I will think of him every time I look at them. Great person, he will be missed.

I'm so very sorry for the Loss of this wonderful man. Bud, as I knew him when I worked at Capurro's was always so nice and welcoming. Always had his dog by his side. May all the blessed moments and memories help you through this difficult time. God Bless..

I was a contractor for Frank Capurro & Son. Bud always had a smile and a friendly hello for me when I walked into the sales office. I will always have fond memories for Bud.

Frank and I thought so much of Bud and Betty. We enjoyed taking them to Roy's at Pebble Beach and dinners. They were always fun to be with.
