Bud was an active member of the VFW and organized their bus trips to the casinos. He would drive his 1944 Army Jeep in the Camas Days Parade. Bus loved the outdoors going fishing, hunting and camping. He enjoyed spending time at the property on the Little White Salmon River. Bud was an avid fan of baseball. He passed on this love to his children and grandchildren and got involved with Little League, again with the grandkids.
