Larry Buckhaulter was faithfully married to the love of his life, Mary, for 47 years. He and his wife would go to ball games with the kids where he coached little league baseball in Bainbridge and would spend the weekend on Lake Seminal afterwards. Throughout life, Larry was a carpenter and owner of Buckhaulter Construction Company.
He enjoyed hunting as well as fishing with his wife. In his later days, Larry began building bird houses and focused his time on family, especially spending time playing games with his grandchildren and great-grandchildren. Larry loved all kids. He also enjoyed any Old Western, was an avid golfer, and loved hanging out at H&P Radiator. Larry will be remembered for his legacy of being a remarkable husband, father, mentor and teacher. He will be deeply missed by those who knew and loved him.
