Cheryl and Gerry,
Sending prayers, good thoughts, strength and support wrapped in a bundle of love. Our thoughts and prayers are with you and we hope the memories keep the laughter in your lives. It’s difficult to say good bye, esp to a parent, you can find comfort knowing your dad is home and in a better place and someday we will all be home with him.

Mr Buechel was a very good man and will be missed. He told the worse jokes but his laughter was the best. It makes me smile when I think him. He is now telling his jokes in heaven.
