My condolences to Bud's family. I worked with Bud at Eaton Corp in Galesburg. We bent an elbow together now and then at Zeb's and another establishment in Mattawan. We regularly harrassed each other about our "Big Ten" rivals. He was in good humor whenever I saw him. I will miss him, and I surely will not forget him.
Co-worker and friend

So, sorry for your loss. Bud was a good friend to me when we worked together at Eaton Corp. Galesburg. He always listened and never disagreed with me. A good heart he had. Will always have warm feelings for him.
