I have many fond memories of Uncle Bud and his family during my childhood. Rolling down his sloping lawn on summer evenings, watching fireflies in the backyard, riding the tandem bicycle with my brother Scott, marveling at the huge staircase and grand rooms in his home and the fun we had with Meredith, Alison, Tom, and Paul.
