All rights reserved. http://www.usgwarchives.net/copyright.htm ========================================================================== The Bakersfield Californian 4 May 2005 ROY L. BUCK July 8, 1926 - May 1, 2005 Memorial services will be held Fri., May 6, 2005 at 5:00 p.m. at 310 Hudson Drive for Roy L. Buck who passed away in his daughter's home, May 1, 2005 at the age of 78. Roy was the son of Lenard and Gladys Buck of Tryon, Oklahoma and brother of Ray, Jack, Bob and Johnny Buck, also of Oklahoma. He is survived by his two sons, Larry L. Buck, wife Barbara, Michael R. Buck, wife Carolyn; two daughters Carole R. Hensley, Nita M. Buck; four granddaughters, Bobbi Carnes, Kristie, Trisha Buck, Sara Hensley; three grandsons, Brandon, Dillion, Calab; and five great grandchildren, Shelbym Peyton, Jace, Brendon and Kevin. Roy was a simple man who loved to work cattle with his longtime friends Wendell Nelson and Stan Cooper. For 23 years, he gathered cattle on many of the ranches in and around Bakersfield on his horse, Nugget. He always felt he should have been born 100 years before he was because he always had the heart and soul of a cowboy. His second love was fishing with his buddy Cliff Brownlee who always said, "Roy was his good luck charm." Night or day, Roy was always ready to go catch the big ones. When he wasn't fishing, he was helping Cliff make lures for the next fishing trip. Roy has left behind many friends and family who love and miss him. He will never be forgotten and will live on in our hearts. We would like to thank Optimal Hospice for the special and kind people they have working for them and the care they gave to Roy. -------------------------------------------------------------------------- Return to Texas County Archives: http://www.usgwarchives.net/ok/texas/texas.html
