Bud "Buddy" Leon Clavell, went to be with his Lord and Savior, on February 26, 2015. After an intense eight month battle with leukemia, Bud was reunited in heaven with his beloved wife, Janice Clavell, who passed away in June of 2014.

Bud will always be remembered for his love of his family, the Raiders, golfing, coaching soccer, eating hamburgers, and driving fast cars. He told amazing stories, comforted those in need, even during his own time of distress and was always there when you needed him. He devoted the last 6 years of his life to his Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ. He shared this message of love with everyone he met, and everywhere he went, including mission trips to Africa!
We love and miss you Buddy! You are forever in our hearts and memories.
