I attached a picture from the late 60s early 70s, from my childhood home in Cedar Lake Indiana, of Bud, my younger sister and myself. My memories of Bud was of the times my father brought him home after their hunting adventures, spreading the bounty of their success, across a small table on our back porch, allowing us kids to pose with the mighty hunters!

Tammy, I hate you have to deal with the loss of your dad. I know your heart is breaking. Your dad touched so many lives. I remember how Oscar spoke so highly of Bud and he would tell of his visits with Oscar. Connie and Deboy... somehow they became "like brothers". Love has a way of doing this. I remember him joining the Allen family reunion. I will remember that kind smile he always shared. He was a special man indeed. He passed that quality to you and your children. You were and are blessed. Try to remember this during your time of sorrow. Love you Girl....
Peace of mind is a call away. We’re here when you need us most.

Mr. Bud you never made it to Texas. But we sure had some good visits when I came to Kentucky. You will be greatly missed. Go Rest High on that Mountain.
