So sorry to hear about your loss of “SPUD”Larson, as I knew him when we were growing up in Helena.I remember him as a very nice and sometimes mischievious (as we all were back then in the Forties and Fifties)person.He was a good friend.

Spud and I went thru l2 years of school, and both joined the Navy, and met several times while in the service. We lived close to each other, and played and fought, both wresling and boxing, taught by Ted Larson Father – I cannot count the many times we pulled pranks, snuck into the Marlow Theater, only to Have Spud let out one of his famous belches. He was a fun loving guy and enjoyed his life the fullest – fond memories. Bob

May I offer my sincere condolences to you on the death of Bud. May your hearts find comfort in God’s Word where it states: “He will swallow up death forever, and the Lord will wipe the tears from all faces.” (Isaiah 25:8) May your loved one awaken to a world where there will be peace (John 5:28,29; Psalm 37:11), no sickness (Isaiah 33:24), and no more troubles (Revelation 21:4) throughout eternity (Psalm 37:29). May your hearts find comfort and hope in God’s Word, family, friends and good memories at this time. My deepest sympathy to you.
