Donald T. "Bud" Emery, 71, of Brewster, Ohio passed away on March 21, 2024. He was born on January 14, 1953, in Massillon, Ohio to the late Thomas and Elizabeth Emery.

Bud owned and operated Pirate Pizza in Brewster for 25 years with the help of family and friends. Aside from the business, he enjoyed watching and cheering on Cleveland sports teams. As a young man he played baseball, basketball and football, some through school and others through teams in New Philadelphia. Bud loved to go boating, and share memories with family and friends. He grew up and lived in Brewster Village, which he loved. At the pizza shop, everyone in town enjoyed Thursday night wing nights, and he got the nickname "The Wing King". In his late years, he enjoyed spending time with family, friends, and his fur-grandbaby, Tommy.

He was preceded in death by his parents, Thomas and Elizabeth Emery.

Donald is survived by his loving children, Drew Emery and Adam Emery; former wife and friend, Lori Emery; sister, Susan (Doug) Edwards; nephew, Danny (Marissa) Edwards and their daughter Emery Edwards.
