Pat and Family, we are so very sorry about Bud's passing. We have many wonderful memories from the Imperial Club as well as our daily walks with our dogs in the Sunnyside neighbourhood. Bud and Pat always made a point of greeting our dogs and making a fuss over them. May your memories of a long life well lived help you all during this difficult time. Take care of yourselves and each other.

To the Gillett Family
Our deepest sympathies to you all from your old friends at M&M.
We had wonderful times and hold wonderful memories from all the years Bud and the family gave so selflessly at the annual Crohn's and Colitis Charity BBQ.
We made great friends and did much good doing so. Bud was such a big part of that.
We send our love and hold his memory close.
Bill and all the old staff.

Pat,
So sorry to hear of Bud's passing. He was a great neighbour and a kind hearted person. I always chuckled when he had his "honey do list" on weekends. He had the best lawn in the neighborhood. His life was full, with you by his side. He loved life to the fullest.
He will be missed. Karen Freele and family.
