I just got off the phone from a 30 minute conversation with Mitzi.

She said that Buck went peacefully.

Continue your prayers for Mitzi.

I talked to Mitzi one day this week and she said it wouldn’t be long. He was a wonderful man and I know he will be missed. Thoughts and prayers for Mitzi and all the Family.

Buck was so influential to so many of us, like part of his family. He helped me so many times with tone, licks, contacts, and many other ways. When he and Ms. Mitzi would come to our show every month, he would sit in his reserved seat on the front row, right in front of me….talk about pressure lol. The Evans rack that I use today is a result of Buck helping me to get it from John Hughey. He was a dear friend to Brenda and I. A mentor, a coach, player, friend, we will miss him dearly. Ms. Mitzi called me earlier and we talked for awhile, these are good people and had friends all over the world. Ms. Mitzi took photos everywhere they went and shared them. Buck was admired and respected throughout the country.Please keep Ms. Mitzi and the family in your prayers.

Condolences to Mitzi and family. Buck was an extraordinary individual. When playing a show, Buck was always sitting up front with always that encouraging look.

Not only a great player but a first class gentleman as well. I remember what Buck told me about steel shows. He said I like to play and the music but the fellowship means more. I have to agree. Buck will certainly be missed.

Oh my goodness. I've been dreading this day for years.I knew it would happen someday. Buck was our headliner many times at the Siloam Springs Show. Delores and I loved that precious man with all our hearts as most everyone did as well. My emotions a very worn of late. I found out a lifelong friend died yesterday and my son's been in the hospital with a blood infection for a week and now this. I need to pray. Mitzi, we love you dear. Peace and blessing to your family. Roger & Delores Osbourn

Buck truly loved steel guitar, it was more than evident in his entire demeanor. He had a finesse that you don't run across every day. I really wish I could have spent more time with him. My heart and prayers go out to Mrs. Mitzi as well as family and friends. 🙏 🙏🙏

We met Buck and his wife at the last St. Louis show, enjoyed visiting with them, enjoyed his set with the band. Remembered that I had this photo taken there. We treasure that memory!
