I doubt if anyone will read this now, at this late date, but I was so shocked and saddened by this news---just numb.  It's  been quite a while (80's) since I saw Doug.  We had alot of a good times.  I always hoped he was happy...  He was far too young.  My Sincerest Sympathy.   janetiemann@icloud.com

I thank you all for your shared memories of Doug. And so much heartfelt thanks to those of you who joined us for the memorial service. It meant so much to Christopher and me.

Chris,
I just found out your Dad passed away.  Craig and I had some wonderful times with your Dad air shows, drag racing shows, bbqs, or just visiting at each others homes.  Your Dad was always laughing and loved to play with Heckle. Now, he is together with Craig and your Grandparents.  I am sure they are sharing a laugh together. You, are in my thoughts and prayers.  God Bless.

My condolences to Chris and Vicki and all his friends. 

Doug was one of my closest friends, and I knew him since I was a kid.  I met my wife Jean through Doug. He was a great friend to have. When Vicki told me he had died, I was so sad. He was always good to me and I enjoyed being around him. Wow, the things we learned together growing up – kickball, football at Miller Park (and watching the NFL Championship game before it became so big they had to call it Super Bowl. (His Mom had a color TV – so cool), enjoying great times in the old neighborhood – such a fun youth we had, swimming at Heman pool, girls (he was popular with the girls)   hanging out at the Arcade Bowling Alley, sitting on my porch smoking cigs with everybody and just talking, riding our bikes all over the place, then cars, He drove his Moms “Wildcat” when I went on my first date – I think we ended up at Steak and Shake. I could go on and on. So many good memories. I was lucky to have him as a friend.

Doug was a part of our family's life for a very long time.  He would often dropped by unexpected just to catch up with my mom, and she was always ready to listen.  Mom always had a special place in her heart for him, although she liked him much better without the snakes (I kind of liked them).  When we cleaned out Mom's home after she died, we found a drawing of Christ signed by Doug that she had saved all these years.  To Vicki and Chris, we extend our deepest sympathies; Doug will truly be missed. May he rest in peace.

Doug has had a presence in my life since I was a little girl. He was so good to me while Vicki and he dated. He never treated me like the snotty little sister who was in the way but instead made me feel loved. I remember tagging along with my big sister and Doug all those years ago. Today I still remember and love that man. My thoughts are with Christopher in the loss of his father, and with Vicki and all those who loved him so well. Rest in God's arms Doug. Rest well!

My condolences those who cared for Mr. Budd. May the God of comfort bring you peace while you grieve your loss.  Luke 20:37,38 may give you solace.

Doug, you and your family moved into the big, empty house down the street in U. City.   You were 12 and I was 10.  I was boy crazy and quite "smitten" with the new kid on the block.  We played kick ball on the church parking lot, road bikes and kept in touch thru our late, late teens.  Memories of those days are etched in stone.  My sincere condolences to Doug's family.  Rest in peace, Doug.

Doug was an older 'cousin' of mine. We saw each other rarely, mostly at family functions during Christmas time. As a young boy I remember playing games with him on the floor by the Christmas tree at Grandmother's house. He was an older brother figure for me for a while and introduced me to some great Rock'n Roll music as well as the drums( which I still play). I wasn't so fond of his pet snakes, but I was always excited to see Doug. I had not seen him much for many years. I feel sad. My sincere condolences to all the family members.

Our memory of Doug goes back over thirty years, as well as our love for Vicki and Chris. We can't help but think of Doug's snakes, unique apartment and our ups and downs during a time when we were all so young. We know he will live on through all the people who loved him so. Chris and Vicki, our deepest regrets.

My strongest memory of Doug from high school was him playing the In A Gadda Da Vida drum solo. He was so good and so dreamy and more handsome than Paul McCartney. My condolences to his family and to all who loved him and will miss him.

We played football together freshman year.  We shared interests in Music and Reptiles (and girls).  He played the drums and I (attemped to ) play guitar.  He would be playing  "para-diddles" in class all the time.  I remember he lent me his Dave Clark five album.  It was their last and they were delving into their "psychodelic" period.  We both liked some of thier heavier songs. the album bomb and they finally broke up. I got a couple of the songs on the Ipod and it makes me think of Doug every time.

Doug was a mechanical genius to a 12 year old kid mesmerized by his fantastic hot rods, his ability to build the most elaborate model cars, boats and Warcraft. That ability was a true asset and helped shape my love for both hobbies. To the big brother I never actually had but was always treated like family I say so long, see you down the road a piece. Rest well Doug.

Doug has been such a presence in my life for so many years. We were both sixteen when we met. He was a Sophmore and I, a Freshman at Lutheran High North. We were both struggling emotionally at the time which brought us together and we were able to understand eachother in a very unique and special way. We were married but the personal struggles that had brought us so close became too heavy for us to handle together. Our love was blessed with our son, Christopher, the joy of my life. Chris is a constant reminder of his Dad. They are so much alike, sharing artistic talents, humor, manner and so many unique qualities. Though we divorced, we never stopped loving eachother. Doug has been such a strong presence in my life. I will miss him so much. Please share your memories of Doug with Chris and me and with all those who loved him.

Vicki
