Spencer C BuckThis memorial website was created to remember our dearest Spencer C Buck who was born in Bonner Springs, KS, USA on December 17, 1984 and passed away on July 5, 2006 at the age of 21. You will live forever in our Memories and Hearts.
Spencer was a very responsible young man who was kind to everyone... He loved to meet new people.
Spencer was killed tragically on his way to work (FedEx Freight) on his motorcycle July, 5 2006. A wrong way driver, Delores Jones, went the wrong way up the exit ramp on I435 NB @ Woodend Rd and crashed into Spencer, killing him. She received NO consequenses for killing our Spencer, all thanks to the Kansas Highway Patrol... :/
