Memories and Condolences

Lois and family, I was so sorry to hear of Buck's passing. I know he is singing in the heavenly choir now, most likely he is probably directing it! It was my honor and privilege to serve as the pianist for his "Singing Churchmen" group for about 14 years. We made lots of good memories together and shared a lot of laughs too. Rest assured that he is totally healed now and the legacy he left behind, won't soon be forgotten. You have my love and prayers.

Sorry to hear about your Dad. He was a good man and I'll never forget singing with him, Big Ralph and the other guys at local nursing homes in Roanoke.

BUCK'S GREATEST GIFT WAS HIS UNDYING LOVE AND DEVOTION FOR HIS WIFE AND FAMILY. HAVING KNOWN BUCK THROUGH LINDA AND RICHARD, IT IS QUITE EVIDENT THAT THIS DEVOTION NEVER WAIVERED. BUCK WILL UNDOUBTEDLY EARN HIS WINGS NOW AND WE ARE GRATEFUL FOR THE OPPORTUNITY TO GET TO KNOW HIM.
