To Mrs. Blackburn, I only met Bud once but that short meeting I still remember…. he came into the Teck Centennial Library (where I was working at the time) to pick you up to go for lunch. He walked in with a lovely smile, approached me at the desk and handed me a four leaf clover and said, Just for you. I pressed that clover leaf and carried it in my wallet for years and years. A very kind gesture that meant a lot to me that day. My sincere condolences to you and to your family on your loss.

So very sorry for your loss. He was a testament to a life well lived. Hope your memories will comfort you.

Cathy, Wendy, Beth and families, So sad to hear about Bud. You are in our thoughts. The Smaill family

Cathy, Wendy, Vince, Beth, Neil and Rebecca, Dylan, Emma, Drew and Luke We are thinking of you and sending our deepest condolences. Although not officially an uncle, Uncle Bud was how we all came to love him. That mischievous grin, his quiet approach, humour and generosity in sharing his familys summer cottage and Windsor Valley ski chalet where the vivid memories come flooding back. Uncle Bud seemed to thrive behind the scenes in his understated way but you could sense his quiet joy during the cousin chaos, whether sharing a pot-luck meal after hitting the cross-country trails in the chalet or after a full day of swimming and shenanigans in the lake. Thank you Uncle Bud for all of the wonderful times your dedication to family and the kindness bestowed upon your huge extended family is fondly remembered, always. As we get older and look back, we reflect on those fun-filled times and appreciate them even more what a gift he gave to so many. Rest in peace. Love Maureen Connolly and Marcy, John, Laurie, Ken, Johnny, Paddy, Erin, Cassie and Larry

Awe, to Cathy, Beth, Wedy & Families Please accept my deepest condolences on the passing of “Uncle Bud”. We have so many fond memories with your family, from many Sunday morning breakfasts on 65 Comfort, to downhill skiing at Windsor Valley and sneaking a extra cup of Hot Chocolate when you parents were caught up in the gift of gab, and all the Skidoo trips around Kirkland Lake. Living and renting from you on Algonquin Ave was always a wonderful memory many years ago, remember scouting the whole neighborhood looking for Megan, as she had gone missing and finding her (after all neighbors were on the prowl for her) sitting on Uncle Budd lap, watching a hockey game. Oh my, that was a welcome relief when she said, Hi Mommy! Haha So very sorry to hear and know he was thought of with deep heartfelt love. He was such a gentle man! Kevin & Patti Connolly

So sorry to hear of Buds passing! He was a great man ! Very nice person ! He will be missed by the Blackburn hockey team !
