Bup was at home in the woods, streams, open roads, and in the company of his family and friends. He passed with a love of good music, good people, all things V-twin, knowing Lemmy was God, and the best children he could ask for.

Above anything else Bup, cherished being able to pass along his love of motorcycles, fishing, and hunting of all kinds to his son Logan; who serves as an Active Duty Marine Staff Sergeant.
