to ken: that was a very nice comment/memory/recollection that you wrote about bud olmstead.
warm regards, mike reissing
"Bud" Olmstead was a member of our championship football team of 1958. One of my memories of Bud on the field, was the Cooley game, when he broke away around left end for a sixty plus yard run. That set up our first touchdown of the game.
He was unselfish, and always put the team first. On a social note, at our Senior Prom, while I was at the refreshment table, I heard someone say; "Ken, come over here". It was Bud standing in a corner. When I went over to see what he wanted, he pulled out a flask of whiskey, and we both had a swig. I never forgot that episode, and to me, it showed what a great classmate he was.
Bud always had a smile, and it was genuine. A truly wonderful friend.
