Greetings to all the "Lindbergs" - Tim, Pam, Judy and Wendy. I'm very sorry for your loss. I haven't seen any of you for years but still have many good memories of Bud, and of course Tia Mom too. I remember going catfishing and playing ping pong with Bud, as well as riding in his old car and truck. I hope each of you will find comfort in remembering all the good times you shared with your dad and mom from the past. May Bud rest in peace. Take care.

We will all miss him, cherish our memories and find some comfort in knowing that so many of our loved ones are together again. Know you have my sympathy and my love.
So sorry for your loss. I have great and funny memories of my Uncle Bud. He was a fun guy. I always enjoyed going to see all of you as we grew up.

I love you all and my thoughts and prayers are with you at this time.
