Charles Buckingham Obituary
Charles Stephen Buckingham, a devoted Son, husband, father, loving brother, and devoted uncle, grandfather, and great-grandfather, passed away on April 19, 2025, at the age of 65. Born on February 9, 1960 in Tucson, Arizona. Charles lived a life filled with hard work, love, and dedication to his family.
A jack of all trades, Charles excelled in carpentry, construction, and landscaping, leaving a lasting impact on his community through his craftsmanship. His passion for building and creating something from nothing was only rivaled by his love for his family.

Buckingham, and Michelle Buckingham; his grandchildren, Kenneth Buckingham, Melissa Vickers, Celia Acheson, Jake Acheson, Christopher Buckingham, Trenton Buckingham, Casey Browning, Jacob Buckingham, Katlin, Austin Buckingham, Shelby, Kayden Buckingham, and Colton Buckingham; and his and great-granddaughter Emersyn Buckingham, who brought him immense joy.
Charles loved his family deeply and was loved by them in return. He will be deeply missed by all who knew him.
