Jul 27.11 from Bob Hudson:
To my grandpa whom I will miss greatly and will always remember. I will always remember your laugh, our times at camp around the fire telling stories, and fishing at the pond. I loved when you, my dad, and I would ride the ATC and ATV across route 219 on the railroad tracks to the nearest fishing hole. I would always catch a lot of Blue Giles. I will also remember you coming down the hill at camp during hunting season on your four wheeler and my dad and I were stopped in the middle of the road when a doe came up to us and I shot it. I was so glad that you were there to see me shoot my first deer! Uncle Jim was there too because he helped my dad track it! I will also remember the three wheeler rides I would go on with you and my dad. I always enjoyed those rides.
I will also remember those times I spent with you on your porch when you lived in Tonawanda. I enjoyed spending time with you and love you very much. You will never be forgotten and will always be in mine and everyone’s heart. Love you always! PS: give grandma hugs and kisses for me!

The Best of the Best is the only way that I know to describe Maynard Hudson. He was a man to be admired and respected.
Uncle Maynard, you will be missed. I have always thought of you often and wished that I could have spent more time with you. Tell Aunt Hazel I said hello when you see her. May you rest in peace.
