Marion Wilbur Rozeboom was born on February 22, 1932 in Sioux Center, IA, the son of John H. and Anna (Kruizenga) Rozeboom. He grew up in Sioux Center and later graduated from Sioux Center High School. Bud served in the U.S. Army from June 15, 1953 to May 6, 1955. While stationed in Germany he took part in a traveling basketball team. On January 18, 1956, he was united in marriage to Gertrude Den Herder in Sioux Center. Together they raised four children: Linda, Jerry, Dale and Pam.

After his time in the service, Bud worked for Den Herder Trucking from 1955 to 1974. In 1974, Bud and Gert started Rozeboom Trucking which they owned and operated until 1999. He had an amazing ability to do math in his head, especially when it came to the business and animals. Bud also enjoyed farming and visiting with friends over a cup of coffee at Doc’s Café and McDonald’s. His greatest joy was his children, grandchildren and great-grandchildren. He loved sports and fully enjoyed watching his grandchildren’s sporting events. He will be greatly missed.
