As I read all the beautiful condolences and memmories that you have of my father William Budin, I only wish that most of you had known my father for his first 79 years. He was a loving Husband to Eleanor Budin who passed away in June of 2000. In the last few days before my Dad passed, he was comforted with the knowledge that he would be reunited with my Mom Eleanor very very soon in Heaven to spend eternity with her. My Dad knew the end was very near and he spoke often about what great children Dan and I were. He spoke of the love he had for Dan, Mary Ann, Jessica and Kevin. He also recalled the love he had for my family, my husband Marty, and my son Matthew his wife Cheryl, my daughter Veronica, her husband Dustin, and their two children Vivienne and Drew. I wish to especially thank Danny and Mary Ann for taking such good care of our father during this last difficult year. As you all know Dad was extremely proud of his service to our country in the Merchant Marine during world war 2. Since my Brother Dan is a veteran of the Navy, and my husband Marty is a veteran of the Air Force its fitting that my Dad's life be celebrated on Veterans Day. Once again thanks for all your kind words in regard to my father William Budin.

Danny and I are blessed with loving family around us for support. In Dads last days I felt the presence of My Mother Eleanor Budin, who passed away over 17 years ago. Dad discussed with me that He and Eleanor would be reunited very very soon, and he was ready to spend eternity with Her. I am so Greatful to Dan and MaryAnn for their caring and Consideration during this extremely difficult time. In reading the many comments of how my Dad touched your lives, I only wish  that Many of you had an opportunity to know My Dad during his first 79 years as a loving father deeply devoted to His wife, Dan and I, along with our children and grandchildren. I know both my Mom and Dad are presently looking down on Dan’s family: Mary Ann, Jessica, and Kevin, and My family Marty, Matthew his wife Cheryl: my Daughter Veronica, with her husband Dustin, and two children Vivienne and Drew. My Dad took so much pride in his service to the Merchant Marine, and it’s fitting that we Celebrate his life on Verterans Day, along with my Husband who served during the Vietnam War as an Air Force Veteran , and Brother, who also served in the United States Navy. Loving

Bill was much more than the few words in, "His Obituary."  Bill was a loving, altruistic, non-selfish individual, who together with his first wife became Foster Parents to severely children.  We've heard them speak highly of Bill or, "Dad" as they called him.  Bill was blessed to have met his second companion, Joanie.  Together they enjoyed the rest of life in caring for each other and finding laughter.   We will miss Bill.  His simple way of making us and others laugh with endless jokes and  those blue eyes that sparkled with warmth.  Joanie, along with her friends treasured Bill,  We enjoyed him and lament his demise.  His Spirit will always remain with us.

My love and prayers go to Joan and the Budin family.  He was such a wonderful man.  We had so much fun over the years.

To the Budin family and Joanie, so sorry for your loss.  Bill and Joanie had many happy and wonderful years together.  He brought a smile and happiness with him whenever we saw him.  I will miss Bill.  He was a caring. sincere and happy man, always telling jokes with a smile on his face.  God Bless.

To the Budin family so.sorry for your loss.Bill was a kind generous man.Wonderful to my mom I thank him for loving her.He was another.father to me after losing mine.Lenny  and I will miss him he was.so good to us.  Miss you   Bill.

Bill will always be remembered for his sunny, friendly disposition.  He brought happiness with him wherever he went.  I have always looked up to him as an example to follow.  He was like an older brother to me and a second son to my father.  We will miss him.  Dick

My deepest condolences to the Budin family.  Bill was a fun, good-hearted colorful man, with great zest for life.  God Bless!

Prayers for Joanie , and for Mr Bill's family. He was a real gentleman, and very interesting. I will remember his bright smile and I will miss seeing him at the YMCA.

So saddened to hear of Bill's passing. JJoanie is a long time good friend of mine. She expresseed thoughts  very well said  and true.Everytime we saw Bill he did have a smile on his face and told jokes. He and Jaonie  were a good  twosome, made for one another.Hes spirit will live on.and he will rest in peace.

Daniel I am so sorry. I understand how you are feeling right now. Trust me when I say your dad is in a much better place. Hugs to you my firend. If you ever need to talk I am hear.

My deepest sympathy to the Budin family. Bill was a great guy, strong, and full of energy. He loved boating, sports, dancing at the Polish Club, and spending holidays with his family. Bill was wonderful to me; not only was he the love of my life, but my best friend. Bill had so many stories to tell, and so many experiences. My children looked up to him and respected him, and everywhere we went, we made friends. Everyone knew Bill by his lively personality and bright Hawaiian shirts. I'll never forget the good times, boating on Barnegat Bay, dancing, and parties.  What a man;  he was unforgettable. He was just my Bill, but I'll love him forever.  Somewhere he's sailing the seas again and reuniting with his loved ones. joanie corcione
