howardwhite 6 #1 June 30, 2009 A friend is looking for Bud Sellick and Howard Gregory, both of whom wrote books about skydiving in the 60s and later. Anyone know them? There's a Bud Sellick in the Nashville white pages -- is that the one? If you know them or know of them, I'd appreciate a PM. HW Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
JerryBaumchen 1,442 #2 June 30, 2009 Hi howard, If I remember correctly Sellick was from Tennessee. And I think Gregory was from Southern California. Just my rememberances, JerryBaumchen Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

howardwhite 6 #4 July 1, 2009 I was really wondering whether either is still alive and able to contact my friend, who is mentioned in both of their books. HW Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
wmw999 2,544 #5 July 1, 2009 Bud was listed as being alive still in this obituary for his sister in law about 2 1/2 years ago (look for Sellick).

howardwhite 6 #6 July 15, 2009 Just to close this one down .. I talked with Bud Sellick on the phone today. He's living on a remote farm south of Nashville. He hasn't thought much about skydiving for a lot of years, but we had a good talk. HW Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
