To Bud's family,
Please accept my deepest sympathies.
Bud was a great friend for many years, first as fellow police officers when he was with DeKalb and I with Atlanta.
Later in corporate security when he always conducted the polygraph exams for my security departments.
I often remember and will never forget a trip that Bud and I made to Savannah, GA. for several days where he ran polygraph test on some of my employees. It was a 3-day trip and Bud and I talked about that trip each time we were together for the next twenty years.
He was a great Man and was one of the most respected individuals in his field for many many years.
I will always remember him as a friendly, mild-mannered, great friend with a wonderful sense of humor and also ALL of the good times that I was fortunate enough to have with him.
I am thankful for the opportunity of having the pleasure of knowing my dear friend Bud Glosson.

Dear Amy and Richard,
I am heartbroken to read of your sweet father's passing. Some of my most fondest memories of your dad are sitting in the breakroom having lunch with the group between polygraphs and him telling us the most outlandish stories. I can see him almost crying with laugther. Your father was a very dear man and I can only imagine how much you and your family will miss him.
God bless you and I will keep you in my prayers.

I am so sorry to hear of Bud's passing. I had not seen or heard from him since his Aunt Dessie passed away. My fondest memories are when I worked for him during polygraph days.
So again, all my love to the family.
