We were so sorry to hear of Bud’s passing! Having had the opportunity to work at the factory with him for 14 years was some of my best years. He was such a great and humorous storyteller! Quite a character! So many of his stories will live on in our family for generations as I’ve told them over and over to my children and grandchildren. Over the years I have often quoted Bud with fond memories and laughter. He was a great man that will be greatly missed!

Donna and all the family

I am so so sorry to hear about Bud. He was a very good man. My best memories of Donna and Bud they always had a big garden he always tease me his tomato’s was bigger and better than mine. They sure was good. Me and Donna rode to work years together at the shirt factory at Yellville. We had lots of fun together.

Also one day it snow and got slick and Bud brought me to Harriet store for mike to pick me up cause no way would I drive on slick roads. Ha. I was praying and we made it fine.


Donna I love you and have wonderful memories of you and Bud. If you need anything at any time you just call me
Praying for you at this sorrowful time. God Bless all the family.
