The family would like to express their sincere thanks and gratitude to his neighbors Anke and Rob for their many years of friendship and help for Bud. We also appreciate the care provided for him by Dr Juanita Sprute and the VITAS Hospice Staff. The Hospice Staff were so compassionate and helpful to him and the family during his last days with us.
