Dear Aunt Malina, Nadine, Neil, Family Members, and Friends:
My deepest condolences to all of you. I wish I could be there to comfort your sorrow.
I was fortunate to have just one uncle who was the sweetest man to me. For every family event, whether it was a holiday or reunion, I always looked forward to his wide grin and hearty laugh. He always made me feel loved even when years separated our time together. My father was fortunate to have such a loving brother. Indeed, anyone who received Uncle Buddy’s love knew that it was pure and everlasting.
Love,
Christina

So sorry to hear about Bud’s passing on. As much as we all loved him, it is a blessing that the Lord has taken him home.
He has suffered enough throughout the last few years and has earned his place in Heaven.
He will be missed at "Rainbow Village" and will keep him in our prayers.

Please take care,
