I will miss seeing 'Uncle Bud' walking the halls of the Methodist Manor. He often kept me company in the evenings at the front desk, telling me his fishing stories. Melinda, you were his shining star and he often told me how proud he was of you. God bless you and your family.

Melinda, you were such a blessing of love and care for your uncle as he was for you. May the joy of the Lord overshadow the sadness of missing your visits with your uncle, knowing one day you will see him again.
