April 15, 1929 – July 3, 2017

Bud is survived by his son Scott (LaVonne), Aunt Bea Boyd of Kamloops, also by many loved nephews, nieces, great nephews and great nieces. Bud was predeceased by his wife of 62 years, Shirley, his parents Cecil and Ella Boyd, his brother Elwin Boyd and his sister Marie Radcliffe.
Bud was born in Euphrasia, Township Grey County, Ontario. He grew up in rural Ontario and slowly moved west, finally moving to Salmon Arm on June 16, 1963. At that time, Bud & Shirley bought a strawberry farm in Gleneden and from then on Gleneden was home.
A man of many talents, Bud had a variety of jobs during his working years, which at times interrupted his main career of trucking.
Bud enjoyed hunting, fishing, dancing, playing pool and in later years, gardening. He also enjoyed being a part of the Gleneden community and helping where he could.
Still with a sharp mind to his last days, many people had the benefit of his sharing entertaining stories and history.
