Mr. Leonard Adriaan Budding

I’m so sorry for the loss of Leonard. I am the daughter of his brother Edward. As a child I would love to go to Uncle Lenny’s house to play with my cousins Bryan and Blake. We lived just down the road from them and we visited often. Uncle Lenny was very welcoming. Every time I’d come to visit I’d remember his smiling face with his warm greeting “ Hello Melissa” . His sense of humor was great and his lighthearted demeanor was very uplifting to myself and the family. I remember his huge garden and picking veggies (especially peppers). We had a great time trying out his new swimming pool. Uncle Lenny was generous and seemed to enjoyed the family. He was really fun to be around. He was creative with “adventures” and fun times he’d create for us kids. He will be missed. My heartfelt condolences to all the family those who love him.

Lennie was a great guy to work with at GM. Sorry to hear of his passing.

Our hearts are sadden to learn of the passing of Lenny. He was a great co-worker and friend. He always had a smile and was very kind. Our prayers are with the family. Ernie and Patty DiBlasi

To the Budding Family I want to extend our heartfelt condolence with your loss. We wish you peace and comfort, knowing that his work here on earth is completed and may he rest in the arms of our heavenly father. May God give you the strength to get through this time of sorrow and may God bless you.

I went to High School with Leonard and remember him to be very kind and very quiet. Always wondered what happened to him until I ran into someone with the last name and he said yes that was his uncle Leonard in Kentucky. May his memory be a blessing.

Diane, Sorry to hear of Linnie's passing. God bless you and family.

My heart is heavy with the news of Lenny's passing. As the wife of his brother, Edward, I saw Lenny frequently when his boys and my kids were growing up. I rarely saw him sit down!! Always busy at work or at a new initiative. Lenny always had a huge garden (snakes from time to time) where we would get the hot peppers to make sambal, or hot stuff that Lenny put on everything like it was salt. He loved to kid around and had the most joyful laugh. Lenny was ready and willing to lend a hand when help was needed, or when crises hit. My guess is that he accomplished most things on his bucket list, as he created plans and finished what he started. My heartfelt condolences to family members in Kentucky, Ohio, and globally.

Diane and family, I am very sorry to learn of your loved ones passing. Please know that I have you in my prayers and seek god's peace for you.
