We have had to say good-bye to another pioneer of the sport of modern fly fishing. I first met Bud and his late wife in 1971 on my first trip to Montana. Bud Lily's Trout Shop was an anglers mecca in those days and Bud was always in the store. Over the intervening years I worked with Bud on Trout Unlimited projects and I have kept track of him over the years. He lived a full and rich life. He will be missed.
