Peter "Bud" Biskis
June 29, 1959 - April 17, 2023
ELLISTON - Peter "Bud" Biskis passed away unexpectedly on April 17, 2023, in Crucita, Ecuador. He and his wife Robin, moved to Ecuador in April 2021 for retirement. It was his dream to retire somewhere warm and on the beach. Although he only got to live the dream for 2 years, they were the happiest of his life.
A memorial and celebration of life for him will be held on September 16, 2023 from 3:00 to 5:00 p.m. at Ash Grove Park in Montana City directly across from the Ash Grove Plant on the road between Montana City and East Helena.
We would like anyone who knew him come and celebrate his life and share stories and memories of him. Food, bottled water, and Rainier Beer (his favorite) will be provided.
To plant trees in memory, please visit the Sympathy Store.

Wow, this one hurts. Buddy was one of my best friends growing up. We went through Elementary all the way through High School together. We were inseparable.After High School I had enrolled in college. I had a chance to work on Wall Street and wondered if I should take it. Buddy and I went out drinking and he told me I had to go, knowing I would move away. It changed my life. I could talk about his 67 Mercury Cougar, his Dog Casey, playing baseball at Head of the River, hitting the beach at Robert Moses, Frisbee at the High School,and spending time on his Dad's boat.There's not enough space for all the times we had together. He was a great guy and a terrific friend. We kept in touch for a while after he moved to Montana , but eventually lost touch. I looked him up on LinkedIn at one point and he responded, but that was it.
I wish I knew he had passed, I would have tried to be there. I definitely had a lot of stories. Everybody should be so lucky as to have had a friend like him.
My sincerest condolences to his family. He'll be missed.

Buddy was my childhood friend. We grew up together on Lindron Ave. In Smithtown, N.Y.. Buddy was like a big brother to me. He was incredibly handy and often would help me fix my broken toys such as BB Guns, Mini Bikes and Bicycles. We camp out together in the woods next to our homes. Buddy being 3 years older than me was the first of my friends to get his drivers license and he always had the coolest muscle cars. His father Peter was a sales manager at Bayshore Ford and my father always bought his cars from him. When Buddy moved to Montana I was 15 years old and I missed him tremendously. Unfortunately we lost touch over the years but I never forgot him. Unfortunately I am just finding out that he passed away and I feel sad. Hello Biskis family and my sincere condolences go out to you all! Hi Robin and so sorry for your loss! Sincerely Yours Bobby Faughnan.

Robin and Bryce, we´re so sorry to hear of Bud´s passing. He was always so willing to pitch in to help with anything that Bryce was involved in and was so good to Dayton. Hopefully the memories of those and many other good times will help get you through your hours of grief. Kathy and Lloyd Rue

Robin, sorry to hear about Buds passing. I didn't know him but a short time, but always enjoyed his company. The last time I talked with him, was on a snowny Elliston day. When I asked him if he is plowing the next winter he told me you all were moving to Ecaudor; with a big smile on his face.
