Condolences to the Neal family.  I had no idea that Lil Bud had passed away.  He was a good friend and mentor for over 40yrs.  RIP dude.

Lil Bud was one of my favorite guys. We kind of all grew up together at the VA and now so many are gone. He will have a great welcoming committee in heaven!  He called me “Nitrain”.   It’s a long story but I loved my nickname.
My prayers are with his family and friends.

Sending Prayers to the Family I met Him 13 yrs ago while working at the Memphis VA, Lil Bud as he was known was extremely positive and did not mine letting you know what was on his mind he may have been hurting at times however he remained Positive He will be missed. “ weeping May endure for a night; family the Word GOD says but JOY will come in the  morning”.  Our prayers are with you all at this time

Condolences to the family. I never knew his name but I recall a pleasant man with that haircut that was always on point when I attended Lake Grove.  He kept his envelope in hand to be faithful to his financial responsibility as a tithing believer. I pray that the smile to match that he gave is granted to his loved ones. May you be forever comforted with God's love and mercy.

Praying for the family, I worked with as we called him lil bud. He always had a smile when ever I came in contact with him.
He will be missed. Gone but not forgotten.

My condolences to the Family BUD was a great person always giving, loved working with him fun to be around never a dull moment around him when ur in his presence you will be taken care of. Loved to see him coming always sharp from head to toe , he truly would be missed RIP
