I’m truly saddened to hear of uncle Buds passing.   I know he was ready and I know his two buds are now with him.  It melts my heart knowing that he was not alone in his walk through heavens door. Our guys are angels now and will always watch over us. May you all feel the many prayers being sent your way. May you always feel his presence and reminisce on the memories. Holding each of you close to my heart. I love you.  

My memory is always seeing Bud’s butt (lol) cause he had his head stuck under a hood. Also, that leather jacket, dusty jeans, and boots - man did I think he was cool. 

Sending the family all my love 😘

I share your grief my friends.  So many memories about the cool dad on the block.  Black boots and a leather coat.  Sitting on the porch glider with a beer and a salt shaker. Working on the brown car in the garage, that I still have dreams of.  That horrible motorcycle accident and his recovery.  That night Julie came out of the house , like yesterday.  I always have my friends close to my heart all of the time, ask my son.  Bud has some great kids, and  a wife that stuck through the years.  Life will never be the same without a parent. As tears roll down my face I think of all of you.  Know that I am here if you guys need anything.  I live a mile down the road.  Love to you all,  Debbie, Jim, Zac & Katie


Met Bud in 1984 when I was 14...Immediately, I fell in love with his Son...Then, the Bowling family.
Bud was always welcoming toward me.
He was a very hard working and dedicated Father, Husband and Grandfather.
He will be greatly missed by many.


I grew up down the street from Mr. Bowling and I must say he was quite a ball of a specific energy, vibrant! He watched all of us grow up.  And it has been my pleasure to know him, Mrs. Bowling and the whole family. I wish nothing but strength, positivity, and peace in this trying time for them. I love you all, and I wish I could be there to pay my respects in person. So for now I’ll send this positive energy to you all from Arizona on behalf of my family and I. Love you!
