Dear Jerri & John, So sorry to hear of Bud’s passing. He was one of the good guys. Always cheerful, not moody, & always had a good sense of humor. Well, unless… John/me called him “Alfy”! I loved those days on Fleming Street. John, give me a call at 317-831-5050. Best Regards, Rocky Bumpas
Aunt Jerri, Carrie & Kathy, my deepest sympathies on Uncle Bud’s passing. I think what I’ll remember most about him was his contagious laugh, and how he loved to let it loose, particularly when he & Dad were cutting up on the Holidays. Praying for you all during this difficult time. Best Craig
