Paul G. "Bud" Brown died Wednesday, Aug. 12, 2009, at Mary Greeley Medical Center in Ames. A memorial service will be at a later date.

Bud was born April 2, 1923, in Story City. He was the son of Grant and Cora (Madden) Brown, and the youngest of nine children. He married Mildred Biggerstaff Aug. 30, 1945, and farmed in this area until they moved in 1959. He worked 30 years at the USDA. After retirement he enjoyed burning wood by the lake and crafting wood silhouettes. In his spare time he liked to travel and spend time with his family. He attended services at Harvest Evangelical Free Church in Story City.

I always enjoyed visiting with Uncle Bud (I don't remember anyone ever calling him Paul). He usually had a good story to tell. His sister is my mother Arlene, and he was born on my her 8th birthday. I know they had a happy childhood.

Bud always had a friendly smile and great stories to share. The world is a poorer place...and Heaven has added a new star.

Another sad day for our community in the passing of "Bud". God said 'it is time' and we are left with one less grand man. He is already missed.
