My thoughts and sympathy go out to you Margie, Renae, Rick and Margies family. Uncle Bud was always the shining light in my life, and my forever favorite person, his kindness touched so many of us.<br>Bud was the youngest of Mothers siblings, we were ten years apart. My very first trip to California in 1958 when I was just 18 was to visit my Uncle Bud, his wife Irene,and their three small children, Renae, Diane and Rick. I truly thought I had died and gone to heaven when I arrived by Greyhound bus in sunny San Diego Ca.<br>Over the years, after I moved to Oregon my husband, Frank and I visited Uncle Bud many times, and he with us.<br>Oh the wonderful memories we had together. I will miss my uncle in so many ways, hes passing has left me with yet another hole in my heart.
