No problem, I'm dealing with the same issue. My approach was to set the budget to 5 cents, left it active, and kept it associated with the deleted campaign. As a quick note: once you set the budget status to remove you can't change it back (according to google in a different post of mine), so that might be a better choice for certain situations. In my case it was since I'm doing 1-1 mapping for budgets and campaigns with a programmatically determined name.
