Joan and I had the opportunity to get to know Bud in his later years, and every meeting was a pleasure. He was such a positive, engaged, and interesting man. I am sure that his family was his great joy, especially the wonderful Ellie, terrific children and grandchildren. We have been enriched by the privilege of knowing him.

Dear Family of Bud,

Ron & I had the pleasure of meeting Bud on just a few occasions and heard so many wonderful things about him through our brother-in-law Bob. He was a quiet yet strong presence in the room. A gracious man with a kind smile.

We are grateful for his military service as part of the Greatest Generation.

Our heartfelt sympathy goes to the family. You are in our thoughts and prayers.

Condolences,

Ron & Elaine Martino

To Ellie and all the family, Ah, a light has gone out, but a star shines brightly in the universe. Bud so defined the word "gentleman" as much as the word defined him. May we all remember his wit, intelligence and love. I love you all.
