Not sure what to say?

I just learned of Buck's passing. My thoughts and prayers go out to all the family. Buck was a very thoughtful and giving person, going out of his way to help so many with their family history research. I always enjoyed my correspondence with him and appreciated his friendship so much.

I was so sorry to find out about Bucky's passing. He really helped me (and others) with genealogy through the years and was an inspiration to many of us. My condolences to his family.

Bucky and I enjoyed a long and lasting friendship while working for ITT and after retirement. We traveled together on many marketing assignments. I had the pleasure following him As Director, Distant Early Warning System (DEWLINE) after his retirement. A wonderful story teller. I will miss him.

Buck was a great person and fantastic cook. I will cherish many recipes learned from him. My thoughts are with the family at this difficult time.
Rest easy, Buck and enjoy your reuniting with Barbara.

Mr. Harris was a dear friend and genealogy buddy. We collaborated for many years over shared ancestors. He and I shared many meaningful emails back and forth. I never had to explain anything to him, we were on the same wave-length. I will miss him daily. May God bless his soul in heaven and comfort his family in their loss.

I am so sorry to hear of Bucks passing. I will miss him and all he taught me about our ancestors. It was an honor to know him. Sending my love and sympathy. ❤

It was a pleasure to know this man may he rest in peace ,praying for his family there are no words

Buck helped me locate some hidden ancestors. I was amazed by his joy and willingness to help anyone who asked. It was a pleasure to know him thru Campbell kids and he will be missed. My sympathy and prayers for your family.

A true Southern gentleman. Buck was a wealth of knowledge and had such a willingness to share and help as we uncovered our roots. I can't remember a time when he wasn't able to answer the many questions that I had. His kindness will be remembered by many, his legacy a constant and unending search and love for family history. How proud his family must be of Buck's many accomplishments.

Thoughts and prayers for the family and may the many wonderful memories of Buck comfort you in...
