He was born August 4, 1932 in Ludington to Lloyd and Ila (Schmiedeknicht) Marrison.  Bud graduated from Pentwater High School in 1952. He married the late Charlene Mae Carlson on December 20, 1958. 

Bud proudly served his country in the U.S. Army during the Korean War. He was a medic and served in a MASH (mobile army surgical hospital) unit during his time in Korea.  He worked as a machinist for Harsco and retired in 2001. In the 60s, Bud worked on the Ludington carferries and he also worked as a carpenter. He enjoyed NASCAR, old engine shows, thrift shopping, the Scottville Clown Band, and donating to the Mason County Animal Shelter. Bud never met a stranger. He was blessed with the gift of gab and he had an incredible memory.
