Jeff, I am so sorry to hear of your loss. Please let me know if there is anything I can do for you. You and your family are in my thoughts and prayers.
One of the best people I have ever known. His love of his family was something you could see every time he spoke. He will be missed every day by his fellow staff here at the MGC, as well as all the customers who knew him. Our thoughts and prayers to the Weber family.
Great guy. Going to miss him at Mainlands. RIP
God bless Bud and his family. Always a nice man to me. He will be missed everyday.
Bud was a well-liked and respected resident of Unit Five in Mainlands. Whether talking about our beloved Rays or the frustrations of the golf course, his enthusiasm and caring shone through. He was a great way to start the Saturday morning golf scramble, and a most welcome sight walking his dog on the Unit Five streets. He will be missed by his fellow golfers as well as all who came to know Bud.
Family was always first to Bud. Always enjoyed our talks about the Tampa Bay sports teams . He was a friend and will be missed greatly. Thank you for your service to our country Bud. RIP.
A first class gentleman to me always. Not timely at all.
I worked with Bud at the St Pete post office.
He was a guy everybody loved and he
was one of those rare people who never said
a cross word about anyone.
I’m so sorry to hear he passed. May Our Lord
grant him eternal rest.

We just heard the sad news last night about Bud’s passing. Phyllis, our deepest sympathies to you and your family. Praying for God’s comfort and peace during this very difficult time.
