George Frank Guller (Bud), age 99, passed away on June 2, 2023, in North Port, Florida at his home. He was born September 26, 1923, to George and Jennie Guller in Newport, New York.  Bud served in the Army Airforce in World War II from November 1942 to January 1946.

Bud and Jeanne relocated to Ramblers Rest Resort Campground in Venice, Florida, after retirement, and later purchased a home in La Casa Mobile Home Park, in North Port, Florida. Bud became actively involved in shuffleboard in both parks for many years and could often be seen riding his bike around the park.
