Harry Edward Craver Jr.

Harry Edward "Bud" Craver, Jr., 84, of Mount Morris, PA passed away at home on Sunday, June 30, 2024 after a lengthy illness. He was born April 25, 1940 in Swanton, MD, a son of the late Harry Edward Craver, Sr. and Mary Catherine Brobst Craver. He served his country as a member of the Army National Guard. Bud was employed by J.E. Dulaney Oil Company for 38 years. He attended Mount Morris Gospel Tabernacle Assembly of God until his health prevented him from doing so. Bud was an avid hunter, fisherman and vegetable gardener. Many Saturdays he could be found fishing his favorite streams, either Crabtree or Bear Creek in Garrett County, MD. When hunting season came around, Bud was probably the first person in the woods and was probably one of the last ones out. He had a love of sports, with baseball being his favorite. He coached Little League and played church softball. On May 20, 1962 he married Dora Ruth Stoneking Craver who survives.
