My grandad's best friend and like a great-uncle to me. He stoked the fire of my curiosity from childhood on, as it'll burn in his honor until I see him again.

Dear Cissy:

Our sincerest condolences on your loss. Bud was an important part of our lives in many ways.

I knew him first as a superb athlete in the playgound of the Bryn

Mawr School.

Years later I got to know him better when he became president of the Board of the Henry Hart JCC. He

was a leader who brought consensus to the Board at a very critical time. All three of our children benefitted from his vision and leadership.
