ALLAIN, Bud
Bud Allain passed away unexpectedly surrounded by family, Friday, June 22, 2018. He was born July 10, 1930 in Marshfield, Wisconsin.
Bud was preceded in death by his wife Gini Allain. He is survived by his daughters Kathy Allain, Sandra (Cheryl Chyla) Allain) and his son Buddy (Kelly) Allain; four grandchildren, Zachery, Travis, Megan (Nick Davy), Austin, and four great grandchildren, Brayden, Lyla, Grayson and Emersyn; his sister Delores Knight of Stillwater, OK, and brother James (Kay) Allain of Clinton, IA.
In 1972 Bud and family moved from Wisconsin to Goleta as part of a job transfer with Delco Electronics, his employer until he retired as an engineer in 1993. For the next 10 years, he volunteered for Habitat for Humanity working tirelessly on several projects in the Santa Barbara community. In 2003, Bud and Gini moved to Buellton where his passion for ham radio rekindled. He was an active member in the Santa Barbara Amateur Radio Club and held the call sign AC6WR, and would drive to SB each Saturday to participate in meetings, assist with club business and just hang out with club members. Word also spread in the valley that there was an expert tube radio repairman who could fix any radio, no mater what condition or age!
You were a rare soul and you will be missed, dad.
A funeral mass will be held Friday, July 6, 10:00am, at Old Mission Santa Inez in Solvang. A committal service will follow at Calvary Cemetery in Santa Barbara.
