Tara Avery-Buckingham Obituary

Tara Avery-Buckingham

Concord, NH - Tara Nicole Avery-Buckingham passed away after an accident on August 28, 2023, in Windsor Locks, CT.

Tara was born on March 22, 1985, to her parents Tamara Saxby of Laconia, NH and Curt Avery of Loudon, NH. She attended Concord schools, graduating from Concord High School in 2003 and NHTI in 2009 with an associate in science degree. Tara was a gifted and competitive athlete in school, playing soccer, ice hockey and lacrosse. She was especially proud to bring home a state championship in 2002 to Concord as a member of the lacrosse team.

Tara was a deep, compassionate person with a heart of gold, always concerned about others and willing to go the extra mile to help anyone. She was non- judgmental and unconditional with arms open wide to spread peace and love to all. She fiercely loved her family and friends.

Tara loved to laugh and had a delightful sense of humor. She was an avid reader, grammar fanatic and a creative, passionate writer who could whimsically compose enthralling stories, poems and musings. Beyond her own creative voice, she cherished the sights, sounds and following that came from the spirit and nature of the Grateful Dead.

Tara was a Certified Pharmacy Technician and worked for many years as a Supervisor / Lead Pharmacy Tech for Northeast Pharmacy Services.

In addition to her parents, Tara leaves her husband, Jason Buckingham, brother, Matthew Saxby, sister, Brooke Avery, stepchildren Miles and Kamren, and three step-grandchildren, Annalise, Hunter and Easton. She also leaves behind cousins, aunts, uncles, her Grammie Griffin and her dog, Ruger.

From the moment she was born, she brought much joy, light, love, music, dancing and laughter to our hearts and souls. She is deeply loved and mourned. Our lives will never be the same without her.

Hope is the thing with feathers – that perches in the soul – and sings the tune without the words – and never stops at all - ….. Emily Dickinson

A Celebration of Life is scheduled for this Saturday, November 4, 2023 from 1pm – 3pm at Alan's Restaurant in Boscawen, NH.
