I'll never forget the first time I met Bud...I was a senior at Wasson HS in Colo Spgs. My mom asked me if she could use my car to go on a date to Manitou Spgs....of course I said yes...but remember you have a curfew.....of course it was just a joke.....but from that day on ....we were so lucky to have Bud in our lives.
Bud was always so HAPPY GO LUCKY. Everyone that I know who knows Bud has had nothing but nice to say....I personally know that he was a saint....only due to the fact that ....that he had parents and a brother and sisters that were the same way that he was. Bud told me about moving to Arizona from Pennsylvania....about hanging out with Grandma....and going to school in Hawaii....if he made it to school....he spoke of Arabian horses and all of the great adventures in life. As we all know....his pillars came from his family. Unfortunately....after all of these years....I've never met anyone in his family but I do have lots of stories that he shared with me. Im so very sad that Bud isnt with us....but as we all know...he's our guardian angel in heaven...and hes watching over us until we meet again. May he rest in peace.
Thank you for always making me smile and laugh! I was the serious one of the Porter clan as Mom used to say. Bud, you were the best big brother, with your gentle ways and good nature. Our lives took many turns and included many chapters as we were growing up. Bud, I know that you agree, our most favorite chapter as kids was the "Avalon, NJ" days.
A trait that is rare and extremely special is genuineness and Bud you were the epitome of this. You also were a great listener......an amazing listener. I truly wish that my three children, their spouses and my five grandchildren had had the opportunity to really know you. What an amazing and caring individual you are!
I will always miss you and love you Bud. I am comforted knowing that you are in heaven with Mom and Dad, healthy and happy once again.

I miss my brother.
I remember the first time my husband, Kaj, met him and the very first thing he said to me was, “What a great guy.” They talked and laughed that night like it wasn’t the first time.
Bud was truly such a “good man”. What does that mean? Without hesitation he defined it by being a loving, loyal and devoted son, brother and husband. A nice, (so) funny and genuine person. A kind, gentle and warmhearted soul.
I love you, Bud and I know how very much you loved your family and always will. I CAN ONLY IMAGINE what it was like for you to see Mama and Daddy and how it feels to now be healthy and happy forever. Until we see each other again, I’ll be missing you all the days of my life.
XOXO
My husband was a kind generous man loved by everyone. He loved me and his family so much. He never had a bad word for anyone. He loved to surf as a young man. He also loved music and concerts and was a very fun person. He loved to joke around and make everyone happy. Please lord keep him safe and peaceful with all of our family in heaven until we are all together for eternal life
My brother was such a wonderful man. He was patient and kind, a true gentle giant. His humor made life so full of laughter. We will miss him so very much. He is at peace now and with our parents...that brings our family such comfort. I love you brother. ❤️🙏🏻🥰
