Ionia Sentinel - 5 Jan 1899
The last sad rites were said over the remains of the late Ed. V. Buck Saturday 
afternoon, by Rev. W. H. Thomas, rector of St. John's Episcopal church. The 
music was by Mrs. C.W. Parsons and Mrs. J. B. Chaddock, and the remains were 
carried to the grave in Highland Park cemetery by Messrs. J. B. Chaddock. M. E. 
Simpson, Arthur Smith, F. H. VanderHeyden, J. J. Green and C. P. Locke.  The 
kindest remembrances of this once bright, ambitious and noble life will long 
live in the hearts of all Ionians.

EDWARD V. BUCK DEAD

From Peritonitis - He Passed Away at 12:15 Thursday Morning

Edward V. Buck died at his home in this city at 12:15 a.m. Thursday of 
peritonitis, aged 29 years, 2 months, 19 days.

He was the second son of I. Buck, and was born in this city on Oct. 10, 1870.  
Attended the public schools until old enough to commence the cares of life when 
he entered the store of Webber & Buck.  Later he went with his brother T. R. 
Buck, when the firm of Webber & Buck was dissolved, and has spent his young life 
in the busy marts of trade.  He was considered a rising young man.  Some four 
years ago he was married to Miss Nellie Skinner, of Lansing, who, with a bright 
little three year old daughter, Marion, survives him, as do also his father, two 
brothers, Thos. R. and Philo, and one sister, Mrs. Carrie Woolford, of Detroit.

In the death of Mr. Buck Ionia loses one of its most popular and wide awake 
young men and one whose death will be universally regretted.  Of a genial, 
kindly and courteous disposition he had endeared himself in an unusual degree to 
a large circle of friends who will unite with the immediate relatives in 
mourning his loss.

It would seem as though Ionia were getting more than its share of sad deaths, 
but the death of "Ed" Buck was received in the nature of a shock; being so sad 
so sudden and so unexpected.
