Bernard Moreau Obituary

Phil and I will always think of Bud with a light in his eye, a song in his heart and a big smile on his face. We can still hear him breaking out in song. His spirit of such loving light made this earth a much better place. He touched so many with his positive outlook and good moral character but especially our shared grandchildren.

We are proud to say "He was a great friend" and will be missed by us both.

Did not know you that well although all I hear you were "the man" according to my wife and stepchildren. Much peace to you on your journey and condolences to the many you left behind.

Bud ws my everything- Companion, protector, best friend and sweetheart. We traveled, cruised (Bud was happiest on the water), spent time with family and friends, and lived every day life along the way. Anything I wanted or needed he took care of it, except for one thing I didn't "need"- Fox news". He loved Fox News.

It was a wonderful 8 years together. Nearly every day he would say to me "We have a Great Life". Truly we did.

Bud was grandpa to my grandchildren and a good example to them -a way to chart their life using his moral code. My childdren, Pat,Dick and Chris loved him and admired him as a father figure.

Bud, was the best.

Bud was my closest and dearest friend from grade school thru the rest of our lives.I will dearly miss him as I have missed his mom and dad. May he be at peace in heaven.

Oh how you are so missed already Grandpa Bud! The kids and I are so grateful you were in our lives and will continue to live in our hearts and memories.

Love to you always -

Kim, Dana, Marissa & Myles

We will always remember Bud as a man with great humor and the love for fishing. When he came to visit Patty and Ken in Pagosa Springs, CO., he would always fish the lake on their property and then Patty and Ken would have fish-fry dinners, sharing the big catches with friends and neighbors (us included). Thank you for those fun times! We have missed Bud's visits already and will always remember him fondly, with smiles. With our love and sincere sympathy, Jim and Joanne Haliday

I fondly called him "Budski". To me Bud was my fishing buddy, gin rummy partner, number one advice giver, political analyst, crack pot electrician, a Mr. "know-it-all" and "done-it-all", a great friend, father figure, and a GREAT man! We laughed together, cried together, worked together, shared stories together, played golf together, puffed on cigars together, and always had fun together. He introduced me to my first ever martini. With a heavy heart I confess, "I will miss him dearly. One day I hope to meet again!"

What a wonderful tribute to a wonderful man! We feel blessed to have known Bud for the last eight years of his life! He will surely be missed, but not fogotten! We love you Bud! The Glaser Family on Finsbury!

Patty's right; Bud was one of the most positive people I've ever met. He was a wonderful friend to my dad. He was always happy to see the girls and me, and always interested in what was going on in our lives. The girls called him Uncle Bud, and he truly was family for us. The world will be a little less bright without him in it.

Joe and I will always remember the smile on Bud's face, and the twinkle in his eye, as we approached the entrance to the Panama Canal. We will take our cue from Bud, and enjoy each passing day. What a legacy. We were lucky to have known Bud and had the pleasure of his company.

I was lucky enough to be around Dad for 56 years. He was a man of great inner strength and unending kindness. I will miss him always, but he left me with two great "truths" about living.
'Enjoy each day' and 'help others whenever you can'. These things I learned by watching him!
Even at the end, with Alzheimers racing to take his memories, he would say, "I can't remember what I did today, but I know I had a good time!"
For 13 years, I lived 4 houses down the street from Dad. As you can imagine, I thanked him almost continuously for one thing or another, (fixing something, building something, picking up the kids from school... there was an endless list of things he did for me and others everyday!) I would always thank him, and he would say to me, "Don't thank me, I enjoy it!"
What a legacy he has left me. I think I will continue to travel the road that he was on, and I will choose, each day, to ENJOY it.
