I remember Bucky from 5th/6th grade at Crestview. He lived just across the side driveway from the school. Some days I'd stay after school and we'd get a snack at his house. Sometimes we'd knock around in the woods at the end of the playground. He always seemed to have a smile. I think his dad was a writer/editor for the KC Times/Star.
Bill Cecil and I used to pal around with Bucky a bit while we were in high school. He was fun to be with. Dave Love is correct in that his dad worked for the KCStar but for some reason I thought he was an artist for them.
I finally got around to writing my profile and noted Bucky was my roommate at MU in Columbia, MO. I gave a brief explanation about his death at the beginning. He was a good friend and for a person to be as smart as he was, one would never know he was a genious. His dad was a writer and had his own column in the K.C. Star.
Bucky was really a great guy to be around. Got to know him pretty well in our senior year. He was amazingly smart but had this great self-deprecating humor.
I attended school with Bucky at Mizzou. His death year is shown as "unknown" someone can correct me but I believe it was 1965 -- a real tragedy for our class and a great loss for science (besides the inhumanity of it).
