Photo: Signal Tribune Yesterday in Long Beach a memorial service was held for Bud Kilsby, who passed away while we were in California earlier this month as guests at the Kilsby beach house with Nantucket artist friends on their first visit to Southern California. Bud and Mary Ellen Kilsby would have celebrated their 53rd wedding anniversary last week, having spent a lifetime together of sharing their love with a wide circle of friends, colleagues and family who will forever be grateful for the influence they've had on their lives. I count myself among those whose lives have been touched by Bud and Mary Ellen's generous spirit and wish the October trip we'd planned for a Nantucket stay would have been possible. And though we weren't able to be there yesteday to celebrate Bud's life at the tribute service, we were there in spirit and know many others across the country and around the world had this special couple in their thoughts and prayers as well.
