He was the best uncle I new. He was there when you need help or when you just need to talk. Sparky loved everyone he knew. He never for got anyone in his family. God has him and now he will rest in peace with the lord. Now is the time we need to come together and make peace for him I and in god hands. Let the lord bring use back as a family cause that is what he would have wanted.

We just learned of Chuck's passing. He was a friend and mentor to us early on in our marriage, particularly in Mark's pursuit of a career with the North Palos Fire Department.
Please accept our sincerest condolences and know that you are in our prayers.

To the whole Buche Family,
We just found Sparky after a lot of years. We lost contact. We were so happy to hear from him. He's been a friend for at least 60 years. Great sense of humor. We had fun in H.S. I guess the Lord wanted to hear some of his humor. My heart breaks for you Coleen and all his children, grand children and great grandchildren. May God Bless and keep your family safe, and help you through this tough time.

I Only Wanted You
They say memories are golden
well maybe that is true.
I never wanted memories
I only wanted you.
In life I loved you dearly,
In death I love you still.
In my heart you hold a place
no one could ever fill.
If tears could build a stairway
and heartache make a lane,
I’d walk the path to heaven
and bring you back again.
Rest in peace Grandpa, We love you! Karen and Blake
