Alfred was born on February 17, 1938 in New York, NY to late parents Max and Elsie (Brüstle) Buehler of Germany. He grew up, an only child, in Bronx, NY and worked as an Electrical Engineer. On October 4, 1958, Alfred married Fran Gagliardotto. Together, they had two daughters, Carole and Lori. In 1966, Alfred moved his family to Scarsdale, NY, where he resided for the past 47 years.
Alfred had been diagnosed with Parkinson’s disease in 1990; yet, he did not let his illness interfere with his enjoyment of life. Above all else, Alfred loved being with his family. He possessed an adventurous soul; and greatly enjoyed spending time outdoors fishing and hunting. His other interests included reading, cooking, bowling, watching movies, and listening to country music. Alfred will be remembered dearly for his generous spirit, intelligent mind, and witty sense of humor.
