Bud Cain, 63, Casey County, KY Bud Cain, of Carr Sasser Road, in Liberty, went home to Heaven, at 11:14 P.M. on Friday, March 7, 2025. He was 63 years and 9 days of age. Bud was born on Monday, February 26, 1962, in Somerset, the youngest and only son, born to the union of Ancil Cooper, Sr. and Mildred Evelyn Carr Cain. Bud was a member of Liberty Church of Christ, being the minister for over three decades. Throughout his years in ministry, Bud preached the gospel at many churches throughout the area. He loved to read and study the Bible, wearing many Bibles threadbare. Whether he was preaching a sermon or having a small Bible study with family and friends, his main goal was to please God and win souls for Him. For many years, Bud was an autobody repairman. At an early age, he learned the trade by watching his Dad at Griffin-Wesley Ford Motors. Bud became known as the best bodyman in the area; ranging from small repairs to custom restoration work. Since the time Bud was old enough to ride on the back of his grandpa's horse as he plowed the garden with a rastus plow or drive his Farmall Super C tractor cutting off the pasture field with a horse drawn mowing machine, Bud was a farmer. He raised an exceptional line of Polled Hereford Cattle, great crops of corn, tobacco, peppers, and hay. In the latter years as he faded out of the farming career, Bud raised an awesome garden, always making sure he had enough to sustain his entire family. Bud was also an entrepreneur and owner and operator of the former Bud's Manufacturing, INC. gate manufacturing. Bud designed and made the patterns of many livestock gates and feeders, including name gates that you see on many farms today. Bud loved his coffee, always saying it took that first pot in the morning to get his heart beating. He would drink it at any time of the day or night and enjoy his Camel and Marlboro Reds soft pack Cigarettes with every cup. Bud was a true Republican, Fox News and Trump supporter. If he wasn't watching Fox News, it was more than likely he was watching the Discovery or Learning Channel, always learning how something is made or works. Bud could work on anything or do anything; he could repair and build machinery, make machine tools and dies, do carpentry and plumbing, learning every skill and precision work on his own. Now it may take him a while to accomplish the task, because he worked on "Bud Time." But when the task was complete, it was always perfect. Above all things, Bud was most proud of his most cherished possession, his family. He was a loving and devoted husband, proud father, grandfather, and friend. Bud leaves behind a legacy that will continue in the lives of his family and everyone that he touched. Bud leaves behind his beloved wife of 45 years, Kathy Ann Hatter Cain, of Liberty, whom he married at the young age of 17, on June 15, 1979; his sons, Adam Corey (and Krystal) Cain, of Liberty, and Aaron Wade (and Jessica) Cain, of Russell Springs; his grandchildren, Brianna Coppage, Braydon Coppage, Anne Taylor Cain, Kadin Coppage, Isabella Cain, Hazel Cain, Kinsley Cain, and Harper Cain; his sisters, Beverly Cain and Carol Cain; his mother-in-law, Mildred Hatter; and many family members and friends. In addition to his parents, Bud was preceded in death by his son, Samuel Keith Cain; his sister, Linda Rose Cain; and his father-in-law, John S Hatter. A visitation will be held from 5-9pmET on Monday, March 10, 2025, at McKinney-Brown Funeral Home, in Liberty. Visitation will continue beginning at 10amET on Tuesday morning, March 11, 2025, at Bernard Funeral Home, in Russell Springs. Bud's Going Home service will be at 2pmET on Tuesday, at Bernard Funeral Home, in Russell Springs, with his sons, Adam Cain and Aaron Cain, Brother Larry Cochran, and Brother Corey Hayes, officiating. Bud will be laid to rest, next to his son at Willow Springs Cemetery, in Liberty. Pallbearers will be his grandsons and brothers-in-law, Braydon Coppage, Kadin Coppage, Chris Weddle, Tim Hatter, Dwight Hatter, and Jeff Sewell. Honorary pallbearers will be his granddaughters, Bri, Tott, Buggy, Little Bit, Henry, Harpie, and Ferdinand. Bud's funeral arrangements are under the care and direction of his son, Aaron, at Bernard Funeral Home. This story was posted on 2025-03-10 08:30:04
