Bud and Rinda and the whole Conroy clan were a huge part of my life growing up. From the OLPH Family to another dad in the neighborhood that would plumb me up when I needed it, which was often. OLPH 8th grade party in the pool. My mom still talks about watching the birth of the horse. And when I grew up, how forgot all the stuff I did as a kid and talked to me like a man. He was a good man. Too many great memories. God Bless Bud and May his soul in the soul of all the faithful departed through the mercy of God rest in peace, amen. Love you all!

Jeff always made the day fun when I worked at Grossmont Hospital. The way he and our boss Bill would hassle each other about their respective military braches was always a source of entertainment. You cant walk through Grossmont without seeing Jeff, all the skill and care he put into the rose gardens there and I was lucky enough to have him assist with the landscape at my first home. Some people stay with you always and even though I had not seen Jeff in many years....he has always remained in my heart.
