Larry Francis Buck Jr.

Larry greatly enjoyed spending time with his family, grilling out, and being outdoors. Many times you could find Larry riding around on his golf cart. Once a month, Larry attended the men's breakfast at Bridgeton U.M.C. After spending 34 years as a firefighter, Lt. Buck retired. During his time as a full-time firefighter, Larry was a Past Chief of the Tri-Community Volunteer Fire Department. Larry loved spending time with his faithful companion, Snoop Dogg. He loved teaching his grandchildren many life lessons and the value of hard work.

Larry is survived by his loving wife of 22 years, Joan Buck; daughters, Jennifer Buck, Kristina Gerou (Chris), and Christy Bradford (Richard); son, Leslie Hart, Jr.; 12 grandchildren; father-in-law, Hiram Cuthrell; brother, Leslie Buck (Charise); sister, Frances Mackneer; and several nieces and nephews.

Larry is preceded in death by his parents, Larry and Edna Buck, and sister.

Due to the current health guidelines, a Celebration of Larry's Life will be held at a later date.

Arrangements are held by Cotten Funeral Home and Crematory.
