Mary, I am so sorry for your loss. I will always remember Dave and you as one of the most loving couples I have ever met. You two just seemed to be perfect for each other. Dave will be missed by everyone who knew him because as everyone has already said...he was a great man...a loving husband, father, son, brother, and uncle. He was loved by many.

My condolences to Mary and family for their loss. In reviewing the notes of others, it is evident that in his life Dave touched a lot of people with his joyous soul. After meeting Bucky at Wright State a long time ago, I saw him almost every time I returned to Ohio in the last 23 years. I have many great memories of our time together and look forward to seeing Dave in God's heaven where there is no more pain and no more tears. May Dave's joyous soul be with us always.

To all of the Bockhorn family,
Dave was a pillar for the Alter class of 1977! Great memories and you couldn't help being impressed with his talent on the basketball court. Always enjoyed seeing Dave at the UD basketball games getting an update on the family. Gone too soon. Thanks for the memories.

The world simply lost a really good guy. Buck found pleasure in simple things; a cold long neck, bonfires, the Bengals, his Buds, and a good dog. He cherished; Mary, his kids, his parents and Danny.
His buddies have a million great memories and stories that will insure Buck will live on. Great friends are truly gifts from God, Buck, thanks for being such a great gift. Peace buddy.
