I am grateful to have Bud and his memory in my life. 

Bud impacted so many of us.  I feel like I've lost another Dad.  He listened and cared, and expressed what he had to say so very eloquently about living life to its fullest and seeking peace inside and out.  My thoughts and good wishes for Vickie, Christopher, and his family, and for the many of us who were connected to him.

Just below is Pastor Kent Organ’s wonderful eulogy of our friend Bud at First United Church of Oak Park on 12/6/2014.

And here’s a link to Bud’s obituary in the Wednesday Journal.
