2010 Ethical Humanist of the Year Leon “Bud” Deraps; Julia Lamborn, Deloris Roman, and Debora and Michael Connley

Bud Deraps is a force for peace to be reckoned with! Whether holding the US military responsible for the hidden casualties of war, taking up a collection to help Haitian earthquake victims, acting as the vice-chairperson (or “chairman of vice,” as he is fond of saying) for Ethical Action Committee, or delivering our canned goods to Operation Food Search to be distributed to St. Louisans in need, Bud’s unceasing energy makes the Ethical Society of St. Louis proud to say he’s “ours.” Tribute speakers include Julia Lamborn, Deloris Roman, and Debora and Michael Connley.
