Marilyn and Family,
Charlotte and I were saddened to learn of Bud's passing while we were out of town in February. He was a good fellow and friend who will be missed by all that knew him. Our thoughts and prayers are with you and the entire Kleb family.

We'll surely miss our neighbor and our friend. No doubt Bud is now able to flap his angel wings just like those birds that he used to make were able to do. We're thinking of you, Marilyn, and hoping you find strength to get through this hard time. Marilyn and Don
