Bud was born March 15, 1923 to William Thomas and Nannie Ann (Hopkins) Gipson, near Little Rock, AR. He moved around quite a bit growing up. He joined the Army where he was eventually honorably discharged at Fort Lewis, WA. This is where he met Marcelle Olla Klug. They were married on March 4, 1949. They settled in, planted roots, and raised their family. Preceding Bud in his passing were his wife Marcelle, mother-in-law Olla, and sister-in-law Florence. Bud will be remembered by his loving family: his children Terry Gibson (Debbie), Shelley Weber, and Sandra Powers (Hugh), his grandchildren Brandon and Stephanie Gibson, Brian and Lisa Weber, Sean Gibson, Eric Powers, and Kristin Jordan (William), and his brother Bill Gibson, along with other extended family and friends. Bud will be loved and missed by everyone. Services will be Monday, July 28, 2008, 11am in the Mountain View Celebration of Life Chapel.
