I am very sorry to hear of the loss to the family and all of the friends that Bud must have touched over his life. Bud became a very close friend of mine during the last year of his life while living at Copperfield Hill. We talked daily and he always talked of his kids and grandchildren and how proud he was of them and would show the new pictures of the great-grandchildren when he got them. Bud was a great guy...

I've learned a lot from Bud over the past 30+ years. He passed on technical and personal skills I have used and will continue to use the rest of my life. I'll never forget Bud's unique style and his interesting analogies.

Go in peace Ol' Dad.
