July 1, 1956 — November 12, 2021

Louisville

Gary "Beetlejuice" Lee Budd, Sr., 65, passed away on November 12, 2021.  He was born on July 1, 1956, the son of the late Harold C. Budd and Elizabeth G. Sucher Ward.  Gary was a former technician at Whatever It Take Transmission Part, Inc.  He was a proud United States Army Veteran that served in the military police unit, and while serving he had the honor of being the presidential guard for President Gerald Ford.  Gary loved life, never met a stranger and would give you the shirt off of his back, even if it was all he had.  Beetlejuice was a loyal patron at the County Line Bar, where for years, he has had a dedicated table and plaque.  Beetlejuice would always greet you with a hug or kiss on the cheek, and was known for his Paul Sebastian cologne that he always would wear.  He is survived by his son, Gary Budd, Jr. (Courtney), daughter, Stephanie Disney (Jason), brothers, Doug (Karen) and Hal (Toni) Budd, grandchildren, Kendall, Korbin, Nathan and Rachel.
