I am praying the comfort only God can give for Beck and all the family. There's no question where Bud is now! He always loved Fred's special shrimp cocktail sauce. Maybe they can reminisce a bit now.

Beck and family,
We were so sorry to hear about Bud. You both were always so welcoming to us during our trips to the yellow cabin. Those memories that we made will be with us forever. May God grant you peace through this difficult time. Know that we have you in our hearts and prayers.
