Boonville, IN. – Bernard “Bud†Wagner, age 78, best known as Papaw, peacefully passed away at home, on Friday, May 31, 2019. His loving, but a little eccentric wife, Jane, was by his side.
After his retirement from Alcoa in 2004, Bud enjoyed sneaking out to his favorite restaurant, Mr. Gatti’s, in Boonville, going to the garage to do woodwork and pretending to be hard of hearing. In his younger years, he could be found on his Honda Goldwing with his ponytail flapping in the wind. When Bud met Jane, sadly Bud’s ponytail met its fate.
Bud was a man of little words but his facial expressions spoke wonders. His favorite quote was “what do they need?†With four kids, that’s just what you do, right!?
He is survived by his wife, Jane Wagner; children, Ronald Wagner (Arin); Tamara Shiver (Mark); Sarah Fulton (Richard); Ashley Riddick (Jon); grandchildren, Jacob, Austin, Jordyn, Skye, Anna, Emilee, Abby, and Stella.
Bud did not want a funeral, so, in lieu of flowers, go to your local Dairy Queen and have ice cream and remember “Old Guys Rule!†For monetary donations please donate to VNA Deaconess Hospice or Davita Dialysis.
Bud will be greatly missed by his wife, children, and grandchildren but is now happily in heaven with his parents, siblings, and grandbaby.
