Bucky was a great cousin and person in general. He was funny and kind and had great talents and abilities. One of which was making people laugh. I think of him a lot and miss him.

Bucky was a kind and gentle soul always ready and willing to put himself out there for others in need. He meant a lot to me and my siblings. The world was a better place while he was here, and the night sky shines brighter with the addition of his star.

Gloria, I am the youngest of Don and Blanche's children, Chrissy. I didn't get to know Bucky like the others did but I remember that smile of his lighting up his face and making everyone happy he was there. Being the youngest in a group of grown ups he showed great patience with me and was always very kind. My love and prayers are with you always. I hope you can come to AZ or Utah and visit us. Love you, Chrissy "Anita" Creamer Hawkins

As one of the many cousins and his favorite, "we'll all say that" Dan and I will miss the opportunity to visit again with Buck aka Bucky. The owner of every comic book we ever read as children and the fun one who helped us have confidence in our abilities to do artistic endeavors, like dance. We love you Gloria, you are the best part of his life and what a wonderful life you made for each other. Thank you, we hope to see you as soon as possible, all our love, Dan and Vivian

I was fortunate enough to grow up with Bucky as my older cousin. His mother, Vivian, and my mother, Blanche, are sisters. He was always smiling and knew how to keep his younger cousins laughing. We will miss him and love him always.
