Aunt Jett, we are so sorry for your loss. We remember Bud and he was always nice to us. Try to be present to this day and all it is putting you through. God does have a plan and this is all part of it. Your heartache will become one of your most valuable life lessons. We are truly sorry for your loss and all the pain you are going through.

Let your sorrow be a bridge not a barrier to the people who love and adore you. We are here for you and will be here every day until you tell us to go away. We love you and are sorry for your loss.
It’s difficult to see the purpose of death in this world. The only way to accept it is by faith. I am praying that you receive the faith you need. God sees and knows everything and is with you right now. He will take care of all his children. Rest in peace Bud and may your judgment time with the lord be merciful and forgiving.
