Eugene "Dopey" Kenneth Budreau, 85, of Cass Lake, Minnesota began his journey to the spirit world on Saturday, November 22nd, 2025, from Havenwood Care Center in Bemidji, MN. He was born to Jenny Beaudreau and Joseph Budrow in Cass Lake, MN on April 2nd, 1940.

Dopey was a very big shit talker, a huge joker with everyone, even people he didn't know. One thing for sure that he hated was holes in his bread when making his peanut butter and jelly sandwiches.

Family that welcomes Dopey to the spirit world by his parents, Jenny and Joseph; and all his siblings, Marion, Donna, Delores, Gloria, Marcy, Oran, and Milton.

He leaves behind his children, Robin (Levi) Williams, Penny Budreau, Kenneth Budreau, and Russell Budreau; 21 grandchildren, numerous great grandchildren and one great great grandchild, many nieces, nephews, cousins and other family members.

Eugene's care has been entrusted to Northern Peace Funeral Home of Walker, MN. Online condolences for the family may be left at www.northernpeace.com
