THE WALL OF FACES

Thank you for your service to our country so long ago sir. The remembrances from those who knew you are touching and reflect their admiration and respect for you. As long as you are remembered you will remain in our hearts forever…..

We were very close friends through baseball and school for many years. He came all the way to New Jersey to visit me in college after he became a Marine. He was my Best Man at my wedding in 1967. The call from his mother to tell me of his death broke my heart and I've never forgotten our times together when we were kids and young men. I still think about him and miss him every day. RIP and God Bless, Buck.

My fondest memories of Bucky were when we played on Rinker during our Pony League years. I pitched and Bucky was the catcher. Bucky gave signals and I was blind and couldn't see them, do he never knew what was coming. But the only pitches I had were a fastball and knuckleball. Bucky said it didn't matter anyway because I telegraphed every pitch. Miss you every day buddy.

Semper Fi, Marine

Bucky had so many friends yet he made each one feel that they were his favorite. We played Pony League together and so many sandlot games at the Little League field on A street. Love and miss you buddy.
