Cyril Frank “Bud” Rose Jr., one of the founders of WorkLight, went home to be with the Lord on April 8, 2026. He was 86 years old.
Bud helped build what began as Christians in Commerce into the ministry that carries that same yes to Jesus forward today. With his passing, we now hold the memory of all three of our founders, John Mooney, Louis Grams, and Bud Rose, together before the Lord.
