Bud worked at Michigan Bell Telephone for 39 years (retired). He is a skillful electrician and carpenter, enjoys playing the stock market, is an avid fisherman and an accomplished amateur golfer. He built the house on McEwan in Saginaw in the mid-1950s, learning how by reading his dad's set of building books and watching what the other carpenters did as neighboring houses went up. Since then he has helped each of his children extensively with various projects regarding their homes and yards. He and son-in-law Dan VanSumeren have replaced his mother Jennie's roof on her house and garage, have replaced several of her windows, and have covered Jennie's house and garage with siding.

Elaine excels in keeping the Paige house up-to-date in style and always spotless. She is the family organizer and enjoys the task. She also enjoys country-style line dancing. Elaine is always there to help out her children and their families. Since the beginning of her mother-in-law's stay at the care center, Elaine has done numerous things to help keep up Jennie's house and to help Jennie to be more comfortable at the Center. In May 2003 she remained behind in Minnetonka, MN, after she and husband Bud attended Mary West's daughter Angie's wedding, to help Mary pack for her and Rob's imminent move to Duluth in June.

Notes for Royce Duane "Bud" & Lucille "Elaine" (Family)
For many years after Bud's retirement, he and Elaine divided their time between their home in Saginaw, MI, Cadillac Lake, MI (where they parked their recreational trailer during the summer) and Silver Springs, FL (where they parked the trailer during the winter).
In 1997, Bud and Elaine sold the house that Bud had built to buy their retirement home on Cloverway North on the outskirts of Saginaw. The house sits on a small golf course, allowing Bud and other members of the family easy access to the course whenever the impulse moves them.
The Paiges celebrated their 50th wedding anniversary in 1999. The following article appeared in the local newspaper:
"DUANE AND ELAINE PAIGE
"R. Duane and Elaine Paige of Saginaw recently celebrated their 50th wedding anniversary at the Freeland Convention Center. The former Elaine Shaw and R. Duane Paige were married June 25, 1949, in Saginaw.
"Their children and their spouses are Lynn and Dan VanSumeren, Steve and Kim Paige and Karen Paige, all of Saginaw. They also have seven grandchildren and three great-grandchildren. R. Duane retired in 1986 from Michigan Bell Telephone Co. after 39 years of service."
