Dr Mr and Mrs Budd,
I don't know if you will remember me or not, we had alot of memories at your house and on Recamper Dr. My Grandparents, Vic and Betty Geiser were your neighbors, I met Candy at the age of 7 I believe and spent every summer of our childhood building ever lasting childhood memories that I cherish so much to this day. She will FOREVER be apart of my life when I look back at my childhood. I am so incredibly sad about this news that I have just heard and send my deepest thoughts and prayers to you and your family and to her husband. I will forever cherish her as one of my closest childhood friends.
She is truly an angel and god bless you all at this difficult time.
My deepest sympathy,

Mr & Mrs. Budd and Mr. Crowley,
I am so sorry to hear about the loss of such a wonderful person. My name is Kelly Shoemaker I met your daughter and wife at the Toledo Clinic where we did physical therapy together. She was such an inspiration to me. She reminded me to not be stupid and to not push it too far. I did the same injury she had done to her knee and everyday at therapy she would push me hard to make sure I got my knee better for soccer. She was a role model of mine. My thoughts and prayers are with you and your family. God Bless!!

She will never be forgotten for all she did. All your kids will never forget you and the great life lessons you taught them. God has a beautiful angel.

I can hardly remember life before Candy. We met 29 years ago, and she was like family. Though, through the years we only spoke to eachother from time to time,on Facebook or summer events, she still seemed like family. She was a little ray of sunshine and I will miss her always. My heartfelt sympathy to her family and friends.

I have known Candy almost my whole life. I met her when she was 9 years old, and watched her grow up, and succeed in everything she has done. 3 years ago I had the pleasure of finding out that she was the Physical Ed. teacher at my Grand-daughters school, I introduced her to my Granddaughter at open house, and with a smile on her face, she looked down at my Granddaughter and said "Welcome to Monac School, I'm looking forward to you being in my class". When we told Julianna of her passing, she said..."She taught me how to jumprope". The children will truely miss Mrs. Budd-Crowley, as will the staffs at all the schools she has taught at. My prayers go out to Judy and Don, and also to her husband Arron. God bless you all.

She will be missed and it saddens me greatly to think of the students that will not experience this wonderful lady and teacher! Many prayers for her husband, children, parents, family, and friends.

I went to the day camp at the west Y when I was younger and Candy was my counselor.

To my dearest family, some things I'd like to say...
but first of all, to let you know, that I arrived okay.
I'm writing this from heaven. Here I dwell with God above.
Here, there's no more tears of sadness; here is just eternal love.

Please do not be unhappy just because I'm out of sight.
Remember that I'm with you every morning, noon and night.
That day I had to leave you when my life on earth was through,
God picked me up and hugged me and He said, "I welcome you."

It's good to have you back again; you were missed while you were gone.
As for your dearest family, they'll be here later on.
I need you here badly; you're part of my plan.
There's so much that we have to do, to help our mortal man.

God gave me a list of things, that he wished for me to do.
And foremost on the list, was to watch and care for you.
And when you lie in bed at night, the day's chores put to flight.
God and I are closest to you....in the middle of the night.

When you think of my life on earth, and all those loving years
because you are only human, they are bound to bring you tears.
But do not be afraid to cry; it does relieve the pain.
Remember there would be no flowers, unless there was some rain.

I wish that I could tell you all that God has planned.
But if I were to tell you, you wouldn't understand.
But one thing is for certain, though my life on earth is o'er.
I'm closer to you now, than I ever was before.

There are many rocky roads ahead of you and many hills to climb;
but together we can do it by taking one day at a time.
It was always my philosophy and I'd like it for you too...
that as you give unto the world, the world will give to you.

If you can help somebody who's in sorrow and pain,
then you can say to God at night......"My day was not in vain."
And now I am contented....that my life has been worthwhile,
knowing as I passed along the way, I made somebody smile.

So if you meet somebody who is sad and feeling low,
just lend a hand to pick him up, as on your way you go.
When you're walking down the street, and you've got me on your mind;
I'm walking in your footsteps only half a step behind.

And when it's time for you to go.... from that body to be free,
remember you're not going.....you're coming here to me.
