Dana and family - so sorry for your loss. Bud was such a rare person that had infinite patience. He was an awesome bus driver and a great person to interact with at all times. When he was no longer able to drive he still wanted to help out and he worked as a bus aide riding along with some of our most troublesome groups to help keep the roof of the place. There were also many days when, due to driver shortages we had to ask a driver go unprepared, to cover a route. Many times I would ask Bud, "Do you think you can ride along and get them thru the route?" thankfully the answer was never "no". And more importantly he was never wrong - he got them thru. I will miss you my friend.
