Fr Quinn said it right: Lord, this Bud's for You ! He was a fighter and simply knew then the time came to surrender. My first contact when I landed in the Chicago area. Always ready to help, never shy of words.
I would not be surprised if he'd publish another novel up there or entertain some of those winged creatures. A good friend one will remember forever !

Warmest sympathies. Bud was fundamental in helping me launch my career some 25 years ago. Rest peacefully Bud.

Pat, we are so sorry and saddened by the news. God Bless Bud! What a character is was and still is in our minds and hearts. I am sure he has a roomful of listeners while he is telling his jokes up in heaven!
Love, Erin and Kevin Keane
