Garland (Bud) Braswell, Jr.

Garland (Bud) Braswell, Jr., passed away at home on March 3, 2025. He was born February 6, 1961, and graduated from the Arnold School in Mobile, AL.

He handled his parents’ rental property for over twenty years and was a huge help to them these last few years. Bud’s passions were cars and dogs. He loved to drive his clients to various destinations as far as Wisconsin and drove his father in his later years. Bud began keeping one dog for a friend, then another, and another, growing into a niche business. He was sometimes called the “dog whisperer.” Helping his family any way he could was done willingly, from getting special groceries, to small and large repairs, to taking them where needed.

Bud was preceded in death by his father, Garland (Buddy) Braswell, his brother, Andrew Wells Braswell, his grandparents, Mr. and Mrs. H. G. Braswell and Mr. and Mrs. Wells F. Honeycutt. He is survived by his partner, Karl A. Brown, his mother, Kay H. Braswell, his sister, Kay Honeycutt (Honey) Braswell Ernest (Cameron), his brother John Embrey (Jeb) Braswell (Tabitha), his sister-in-law, Ann Marie Braswell, nieces and nephews, and other extended family.

In lieu of flowers, and because of his love of dogs, memorial donations may be made to The Haven, a no-kill animal shelter, P.O. Box 1063, Fairhope, AL 36533, https://havenforanimals.networkforgood.com/projects/43903-the-haven-no-kill-animal-shelter  or charity of your choice. A private family funeral service will be held at a later date at Trinity Presbyterian Church with internment in the church columbarium.
