Bud lost his valiant battle with leukemia late Thursday night, 12 August 2010. Many loved ones were in attendance.

As all you know, Bud was an amazing husband, father, grandfather, brother, uncle and friend. He was the type of person who knew no strangers, just friends he hadn't met. We will all miss his positive attitude, sense of humor, generosity and kindness.

At Bud's request there will be no services. If you would like to help us celebrate Bud's life, please make a contribution to the Hayfork Scholarship Foundation, PO Box 1341, or the Hayfork Volunteer Fire Department Building Fund, PO Box 613 (Hayfork, CA 96041)
