He attended Palm Beach Junior College and was one of two students to receive the college's first tennis scholarships. He went on to attend the University of Florida. Like his father, Buck graduated from UF's School of Pharmacy. While in Pharmacy school, he was a member of Rho Pi Phi fraternity. He met the love of his life Claudine while working at Love's Drug Store in Delay Beach, FL. He and Claudine resided in Belle Glade, FL for nearly 30 years and were owner/operators of Lake Pharmacy in Belle Glade and Glades Drug in Pahokee before retiring to Lake Placid, FL. Buck achieved his 50-year licensure in the Florida Pharmacy Association in 2020, a milestone he was proud to achieve. He was a member of St. Peter's Lutheran Church in Belle Glade where he served in leadership roles. After his retirement, Buck spent much of his time reading on his Lake Placid porch. He loved taking in the views of Lake Huntley. He was an active member of Trinity Lutheran Church in Lake Placid and served the church in many ways including as a board member for their Trinity Tots Preschool. He also enjoyed riding his bike and traveling with his children and grandchildren. In recent years, neighbors invited Buck to join a pickleball team, and he immensely enjoyed the friendships he developed through the pickleball community. Buck was respected and loved by all he met. His strength of character was shown even during his cancer treatments. He never lost his sense of humor and continued to consider himself blessed. He blessed others throughout his life with his generosity, determination, wit, and quiet spirit. A service will be held at Trinity Lutheran Church, 25 Lakeview Street, Lake Placid, 33852 on Friday, February 11, 2022 at 2:00 PM.
