Elmore County's Claud community is mourning the death of business owner Charles LaVoyde Bush who died at 84-years-old after a yearlong battle with lung cancer and advanced COPD.

Bush, who lived in the Claud community for most of his life, was the longtime owner of Bush's Grocery and Deli, which is located just outside of Eclectic's town limits on Tallassee Highway in the Claud community.
