So sorry to hear of Bud's passing. Between my grandma and myself, many hours were spent at Oregon Bowl with the Frye family. Show those angels how to pick up an 8-10 split! Lisa (Heiking) Walton

To the family and friends of Bud Frye. My deepest sympathies. I had so many good times with Bud at Oregon Bowl and bowing in other tournaments. Especially the New years tourney every year. So sorry that he has passed. Sincerely, Jim Snow.

I'm very sorry to hear of Bud's passing. Bud and I go back as far as kindergarten! During our high school days we had a lot of fun in Bud's car going around the capitol square as well as doing some pranks that I better not get into! He was a good guy with an unmistakable laugh! Rest in peace, buddy! John O'Neill
