John David Budiselic

David was born October 22, 1960 in Baxter Springs, KS to Linda (Clanton) Budiselic and John Budiselic. He is preceded in death by his mother, Linda Budiselic, and his brother Terry Budiselic. David grew up in Baxter Springs, KS and spent a lot of his time in Picher, OK with his grandparents, Earl and Irene Clanton, who also preceded him in death. He made a career in Mortgage Banking and spent much of his adult life in Houston and then Dallas, TX. He leaves behind his much beloved cats, Kramer and Maggie, aunts, uncles, cousins and many, many friends.

David was always quick witted. He loved entertaining his family and friends, starting at a very early age, and continued to do so until the very end. He was one of the funniest people you could ever meet. He loved old movies and the actors and actresses who starred in them. He also loved the classic country and western singers like Tammy Wynette and Patsy Cline. He often recited old movie lines and knew all the words to Tammy and Patsy's songs. He was also famous for making up his own words to familiar tunes and was quite good at it!

David was extremely bright and hard working. He loved a challenge and had an impressive work ethic. He spent many years as a mortgage banker and worked for several banks and mortgage companies and always excelled in his field. He also recently attended University of Texas at Dallas to continue his education where he impressed many of his professors and excelled in all subjects.

He was a good friend to many and he will be greatly missed. Just imagine the party going on in heaven though!

In lieu of flowers, David would like donations to be made to the American Cancer Society.
