re with just a hammer, nails and a saw. He loved hunting and fishing, and enjoyed spending time outdoors in his yard. What he didn't enjoy was picking up all those walnuts that fell from his 25 black walnut trees! He also loved music, especially country and gospel music, and enjoyed listening to it every day because it reminded him of his country boy roots and his love for the Lord. Spending time with his family was the thing Bud loved most in life. He attended every event his kids and grandkids were in, always cheering them on in all their activities. Bud loved the Lord Jesus with all his heart. He and Arline were very active in West Avenue Baptist Church where Arline's grandfather was one of the founding fathers. The church was Bud's second family, and he served WABC as a deacon, elder, Sunday School teacher, youth leader, building committee chairman, financial chairman and choir member. He was preceded in death by his wife, Arline Dideriksen Moser, his parents, William Moser and Myrtle Nichols Moser Houston, his 3 brothers, William (Pete) Moser, Harold Moser, Leslie Moser and his sister, Edna Moser Maciel. Bud Moser is survived by the following family members: a son - David Moser and wife, Judy, of Burlington, IA; a daughter - Carol Moser Sage-Younkin and husband, Marty Younkin, of Dallas, TX; 3 grandchildren - Scott Moser and wife, Tina, of Frontenac, KS; Brian Moser and wife, Sarah, of Lenexa, KS; Jaime Christofferson and husband, Chris of Burlington, IA; 3 step grandchildren - Carissa, Charlton and Clayton Younkin, all of Dallas, TX; 4 great-grandchildren - Brandon, Elizabeth, Zachary and Ashlyn Moser, all of KS; and several beloved nieces and nephews. Visitation will be Sunday, June 18th from 6 - 8 p.m. at West Avenue Baptist Church. The service for Bud Moser will be Monday, June 19th, at 10:30 a.m. also at West Avenue Baptist Church. A dinner will be served for family and friends immediately following the service at Westwood Center behind the church. Everyone is welcome. Interment will take place at 2 p.m. at Aspen Grove Cemetery following the luncheon. The Burlington Area Veterans Honor Guard will conduct Military Rites. In lieu of flowers, a memorial fund has been established for West Avenue Baptist Church, Bud's beloved church home, where he served the Lord Jesus Christ with his whole heart. To sum up Bud's beliefs in a nutshell: "Only one life 'twill soon be past, only what's done for Christ will last." Welcome home, my good and faithful servant!
