This is still one of my favor…
This is still one of my favorite pictures and so appropriate at this time. The love we see on Charlotte’s face represents the love all of us have for Bud! And the look on Buds face is the love he had for family and being our Santa! So many memories from Aunt Vera’s cocktail party when we all over served ourselves and Bud sat on the floor telling us the Pine Cone Monster story to the love he had for my utmost obnoxious birthday cards I gave him! Plus the love you had for my sister! Love you so much Budman! We sure will miss you 😍

When we all get where we're going, and where Bud (and Walt, and so many other of the good guys who we miss so much) already are, and wait for us -- it's going to be just like this amazing day we shared. Only ... even better. Till then, God we miss you, Prince of all our hearts. Thanks for spending so much of your time on earth with me. I lived, laughed, loved and learned more, thanks to you. Sincerely -- Sue (the Usherette <3)

The Prince and The Dude spent many happy hours philosophizing. Or whatever they were doing! ;) At any rate, 2 good friends hanging out together. I miss them both, and always will. <3

A great dance partner! At Sean and Basia's wedding. Where he also introduced me to my favorite frilly beverage.

I'll share just a few stories…
Milwaukee, WI, USA
I'll share just a few stories (of so many I have) to illustrate how Bud always made the world a better, and brighter, place around him:* His original crowning as the Prince, as told below by my sister. She and I WERE the Original Wedding Usherettes EVER--circa late '87--and wedding usherette protocol was not yet established. As in, we had NO IDEA what to do! If Bud hadn't asked us to seat him, we'd have stood around all day! (Or at least until we got tangled up unrolling the rug backwards down the center aisle, from the altar. But that's another story!)

Arnold and I are so so sorry for your loss. Bud was an amazing and wonderful person. We enjoyed the time we were able to spend with you both.

This is Bud! So full of fun. …
1998, Rick and Eva's House
This is Bud! So full of fun. So good humored. I don't remember what he even said or did to make us all laugh so hard. I do know why he is wearing the crown and called "THEE Prince." At Rick and Eva's wedding he is the ONLY person who got seated by the usherettes . When everyone else didn't get escorted, he had an usherette on either arm! So heartbroken that we'll never see that smile again. What a wonderful man!
