Crystal posted a condolence
Harold I just wanted to thank you for the rainbow cookies. My birthday was not the same without you but you where in our thoughts and hearts. I am just thankful you got to go home and that you are at peace now. When the summer comes I will blow up a few fireworks and scare my mom for you. so you can still look down and laugh.

Robin posted a condolence
Yesterday I picked up rainbow cookies from Erga to give to Crystal from you for her birthday celebration today. I checked and they were out of apple turnovers, you must have been there before me and picked up the last ones. I also made what you called "Bubble and Squeek", corned beef and cabbage, it wasn't my favorite but you enjoyed it every year. Carolyn mentioned the things that will remind us of you and there are a few more to remember you by, first and formost, your Onion Soup recipe, we all have it and we all make it,best ever, and your baked calms al la Harold and grilled cheese with tomato sanwiches. This week has been tough to say the least, I still pick up the phone to call you now I just talk to you and hope that you can hear me. I'm going to get thru today knowing that your presence will be felt as it is everyday. I miss you. Love Robin

Carolyn posted a condolence
The first time I was ever in Harold's house I dropped a cheesburger, ketchup side down, on his floor. Steve's eyes nearly popped out of his head. Since then we have shared many laughs. One of my favorites was a trick I played on him with the sink sprayer- you know the ones that used to be built into the sink? Well, I put a rubberband around it and he did not know. The next time he turned the water on-swoosh-he was soaked! I always found myself to be at ease around him and enjoyed our conversations. He knew so much about everything, probably because he read the paper cover-to-cover (and then mailed us his favorite clippings). This last week we all have been missing him in our own ways. But I have come to realize that I will remember him often, because there are so many things that make me think of him. Harold-I will remember you everytime I get an LL Bean catalog, wear something red, see a Bed Bath and Beyond coupon, hear Frankie Valli, straighten a crooked picture, hear an old-fashioned saying (my favorite-"better than a poke in the eye with a sharp stick"), turn on my dishwasher, hear a clock chime, and of course when we go fishing every summer. Until we meet again, God Bless! Love, Carolyn

I have always concidered Harold a great part of this Family, Hell he was part of everything we damn well did,well almost everything! I remember as far back as a kid him showing me random fix it jobs or simple how to do things with a scredriver, hammer and nail, etc. The funniest was when he showed me how to replace electrical wall sockets in the basement and I was so scared to touch them even with the circuit breakers off!! He was like "grow some balls Christopher" always there with the one liners, or a Joke or constantly having an opinion on current events!! Harold was never shy on how he felt and always let his opinion known weather it was positive or negative, more negative but that's what mad the opinions funny!! He was alway quick witted and never held back about busting my chops about the Rangers and how they "suck" and will never be like the Islanders! He always talked about his grandkids and how they are Hockey fans, New jersey Devil Fans to be exact! I remember last season he would call and bet me a dollar if the Rangers would not make the playoffs and boy was that the hardest dollar I ever gave up! I always recall all the family dinners he was part of, all the Holiday and birthday and back yard bbq's! I remember one occasion where harold got his first cell phone and was learning text lingo and I tought him the letters "GFY" and recall his sons getting mad!! It was all in good fun and it got some really good laughs that afternoon!! I really didn't think GFY= good for you was a bad thing to text!! Harold you will truly be missed and your spirit will always be around!!My next hockey game will not be easy but I know you will be there in spirt yelling "c'mom guys shoot the damn puck" , hell my Rangers need all the help they can get right now, Looks like I may lose another dollar this year too!! I am truly saddend that you are gone, I always come home and look for the white mustang outside and it's not there anymore but you will always be here in spirit! It's good to know you are in a better place where you can now look over all of us! Thanks for teaching me a thing or two over the years! You will truly be missed Mr Harold and by the Way the Islanders suck, but I am sure you knew that already! May you rest in peace and for one last time THANK YOU!

Marissa Buck posted a condolence
Well, I don't even know where to start. He was my Grandpa and did everything that he could to show how much he loved Kristin, Stephen, Michael, Jack and I. I can remember when I was little and he would come to my soccer games and he would always be the first person that i hugged. Living on the opposite side of the country for the past 2 years, I didn't see him as often, but I seemed to be thinking of him a lot. Now that he is gone, I catch myslef thinking of him more than ever. He was a great man with great stories. He brought happiness and joy to everyone he met. Grandpa Buck will be missed dearly by everybody. I truly thank everyone for their blessings and good wishes during this time. Daddy and Uncle Steve, losing your dad is always difficult but we can make it through as a family. Even if there is only 9 of us left. I love you guys.

George & Marci Frenzel posted a condolence
I consider Harold part of our Family. I have so many memories from the many years I have known him. I remember when I was a child and Harold came along with our family to a local parade. I had so much fun with following him around; I had to be 10 years old or less. And a few years back Marci and myself took the whole family to New York City to see the Broadway Show Avenue Q, Harold was part of that and we had so many laughs together, it was such a great dinner afterwards too. We are truly sad and will miss Harold greatly. It seems the family dinners and backyard cookouts just wont be the same without him laughing and telling jokes and stories. Our deepest sympathy goes out to Steve and Harold. I just want you to know your Father was such a great part of our lives. With love, George and Marci Frenzel

Harry and Stephen,
I just wanted to say that it was always a pleasure seeing and talking to your Dad at my sis, Laurie's Summer Barbecues and holiday dinners. I always enjoyed engaging in conversation with him as he always had very interesting stories. It was equally nice to see your Dad and my Dad (being about the same age) talking about the old time cars and the many things that they had in common. Your Dad will be missed very much !

Whenver I entered the Buck home when I was a teen, I had to take off my shoes. Mr. Buck always had a coaster under his beverage because it sweat a lot during the hot months. I enjoyed talking to him. He was a classic and will be missed by all that knew him ( and his quirky ways).

Joette&Vernon Campbell posted a condolence
We met Harold through Sue and Mitch. I was drawn to his dry sense of humor and directness.
Many years ago when I was hospitalized to my surprise Harold paid me a visit. It was much appreciated as it was never expected. Those are the acts that are most remembered.
Our condolences to the Buck Family.

Dear Harold, For the past few days I have thought about all the many days and nights that I have had the pleasure of your company. You were always a pleasure to talk to and had many interesting stories. I will miss our love of Music from the 50's and 60's. One of your favorite songs was 'Looking for an echo" by Kenny Vance. We also shared a love for "Jersey Boys". Also stories about your Navy experience and your "Intrepid" years. I will miss your laughter,sense of humor and smile.You will be missed immensely.

Dear Harold/Dear Friend
It seems so strange to realize you won't be at the next "Frenzel" celebration or cookout. You have been a friend and as close to family as anyone can get and for so many years. You will be with us in spirit with all the memories.They say you are in a better place but certainly you have made the world a better place just being in it.

To Robin, and to Harolds family,
We were so sorry to here about Harolds passing. My mom, Alice Tatro, called in tears and said dad was going to see his friend sooner than expected. We feel lucky we had the opportunity to meet Harold and Robin at my partents farm in Nebraska. They were such a kick! Harold and my dad were pretty hysterical pair because they were from such different backgrounds. I think they both benifitted greatly from their friendship and I know that they are glad to be reunited again. I am truly sorry for your loss and know what a difficult time this is for all of you.
Harold always made us smile and he will be dearly missed.
God bless you all -
Laura, Bob, Trent and Maclain

Alice Tatro posted a condolence
I couldn't list all the memories I have of Harold on 3 pages. He has been a good friend since we met on our Austrailia trip 10 years ago. He has caused me to laugh harder than I have ever laugh after being locked in the bathroom on our bus. His visits to Nebraska will never be forgotten and his love for our Nebraska friends. My Grandson Trent, made an instant friend when he met Harold. He made us remember how lucky we are to live in the country, see lighteneing, stars and the moon and just our life in general. He and Robin were a special couple. Exact opposites to say the least but opposites attract and they certainly were a pair. We have had the pleasure of going on several trips with them and it has been a joy. He and his good friend Ron, are together sooner than any of us expected. May God bless all of you and give you peace.
Love, Alice

Please know that I am here for you during this time and if there is anything I can do just ask. I thought of your dad like family and will keep him in my heart always Love Crystal

Walter "Jim" Valentine posted a condolence
I was a friend of Harold’s and cherish the memories as older teenagers and young men in Oyster Bay. I’m not sure that Harold worked at Stilwell’s car dealership but that’s one place I associate with him. Another is working along side Harold on a site in OB Cove, and naturally the times we hung around with each other. I know the Buck family will remember my mother, Mary as she was quite fond and personally rewarded of that time. My very sincere condolences and prayers to the Buck family.

Mr. Buck was one of the greatest influences on my life. I learned a great deal about how to be detail oriented in my work and in my life from him. Because of my emulation of his attention to detail, I have been able to achieve amazing levels of success in both my career and personal lives. God bless you Mr. Buck, I will raise a toast to your memory tonight and in the weeks to come.

Robin Frenzel posted a condolence
As I sit here looking at your picture I'm trying to figure out how I'm going to go on without you. You were my strength, my advisor, there are just so many things you were to me but mostly my best friend. I told Stephen try and remember the good times when your having a hard time but that is not working today. When I left your house yesterday there was a truck in front of me with a Huskers sticker in the back window. I went off in thought and when I went to look at the truck again it was gone. It must have been Ron behind the wheel and you were his passenger. Please look down on all of us and let us know you're OK. I know your out of you pain and suffering and for that I'm happy but I so sad your not here anymore, I miss you. I'll love you always. Robin
