On Tuesday, June 14, 2022, Hugh “Bud” Mauldin Jr. passed from this life to the next. He left a positive imprint on all he encountered, typically with a smile.
Bud retired after 35 years of federal government service, including service as a surface warfare officer in the U.S. Navy with a tour in Vietnam.
He volunteered for more than 30 years with the Boy Scouts; was active in the DAV, American Legion, and Knights of Columbus; and attempted to hunt, fish, and competitively shoot.
Bud is survived by his bride of 53 years, Ann; three children, Charles, James, and Clara and her husband, Rob Podrasky; three grandchildren, Tyler, Payton, and Ben; and his sister, Mary and her husband, Wayne Feamster.
He was preceded in death by his sister, Sister Mary Hugh Mauldin; and his parents, Dr. and Mrs. Hugh Mauldin Sr.
A funeral Mass is planned for noon Wednesday, June 22 at St. Bede Catholic Church, 3686 Ironbound Road, Williamsburg. Interment will follow at Woodlawn Memorial Gardens in Norfolk.
The family asks in lieu of flowers, donations be made in Bud’s name to DAV Chapter 58 at 6265 Professional Drive, Gloucester, VA 23061. Online condolences may be shared at www.nelsenwilliamsburg.com.
