Uncle Budd, you have always had a fun-loving, kind heart! I shall truly miss you and your easy smile. Many a wonderful, cherished memories will carry you in my heart! My prayers for Aunt Betty and the family!
Hey Colby ,
Just giving you a virtual hug (not the best, I know) and praying for you and your family in the loss of your dad. We are ALWAYS too young to loose our parents. I know that by experience. May God hold you close and may the memories of all that your dad was and the hope of heaven sustain you in this time of grief.
Lovingly,
Ruth (& Mark) Davidson
We are saddened to hear of Budds passing. We both worked with Budd at the IRS. He was a pleasure to work with & to be around. He & Betty were true friends & Betty was a part of our IRS family. Our deepest sympathy to Betty & family.
Dear Betty and family, you may remember me as your neighbor on Indian lane (next to Annie and Doyle). My thoughts and prayers are with all of you. I know your beautiful family and a loving God will see you thru this difficult time. Please know that others care and share in your loss. ❤️ Fran
Betty, I’m so sorry to hear of your loss. I have fond memories of Budd.
