Francis Edwin Flaherty - Uncle Bud

Birth: June 5, 1908, Genoa, Nebraska

I loved Uncle Bud. He was a classic jokester and played the violin,
and wore a cowboy hat. He one of a kind.

The photo is of Artie with Karen who is the oldest then her sister Cheryl and baby Dixie on Bud’s lap! He was such a proud papa! Artie always had those girls beautifully dressed and just impeccable!
Such a happy photo.

On one of Bud's trips to Sioux City, I asked him how he was doing. He replied, how do you think a 75 year old man is doing with a 16 year old daughter?
