We are so sorry to hear about Buck's passing. It was great that we got to see him last year at Elsa's 100th birthday party in Bismarck. He always treated me (Duke)with warmth and kindness. When I think of him, it makes me smile. Warmest regards to all. Duke and Betty

Our sympathies to our extended family. I'm Sheila's daughter, and I remember "Uncle Buck" stopping at our house and sharing a meal with us when I was a little girl. It's nice that he and Grandma Barry had a chance to see each other again the past few years. Thanks to all who made that happen.
