Buck was also known as The King of North Lake. He had a cottage in Baldwin, MI on North Lake that was his home away from home. This is where Buck made numerous close friends that were truly considered family.
He was an avid hunter and fisherman. A jokester and truly one of a kind. He was a man of his ways; some may say stubborn. There was one trait that was undeniable, his love for his family and friends.
2nd Corinthians 1:3-4
Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of mercies and God of all comfort, who comforts us in all our affliction, so that we may be able to comfort those who are in any affliction, with the comfort with which we ourselves are comforted by God.
