We met Bud through building our family tree for the Hefner family. His daughter Jan is the one who located us and we provided photos of Bud's father, which he had never seen...Bud was 86 at the time when we first met and it gave us such joy to help fill in some of the blanks in his life and his ancestry. His father, John L. Hefner was my (Bill's) great uncle (though I never met him either) and we had built quite an extensive ancestry tree. Jan helped a great deal to add information about their branch of the tree. We also had the wonderful pleasure of meeting Chrissy prior to her passing and what a joy she was. It is with very mixed emotions that we say goodbye to Bud but we know that he is now with his beloved Chrissy and probably giving hell to his father for it taking 86 years to learn about him. Bud will always be remembered with joy because of his dry sense of humor...something he had in common with my grandfather as well. May God watch over your soul, Bud, as well as the rest of the family...we will miss you.
