Our sympathy to you, James Everett, at the passing of "Buck." He was a true friend to several in my own family, as was Becky (and you, also) My sister Imogene adored Becky and Theodore. He had a master's touch in his mechanical abilities.

Sending our sympathy in the loss of Buck. Many good times were spent with Buck at the car shows. Oh the stories he could tell. He lived his life doing what he loved to do and that was taking a old rusty vehicle and making it into a nice ride. He could build more with less. Fly high my friend.
