Obituary
Genevieve "Genny" Buck entered into the arms of the Lord on October 8th, 2025, at the age of 96. She was born on February 28th, 1929 in Split Rock, WI, to Fred and Alma (Beyersdorf) Schlender. On November 8th, 1947, she married her soulmate Donald Buck at Immanuel Lutheran Church in the town of Morris. They were blessed with seven children. Donald and Genny cared for many people throughout their lives, one special person- Earl Murray who lived with them for over 50 years. They became members of First English Lutheran church, in which Genny was part of Esther Circle and Altar Committee. Genny was known for her great cooking, and she enjoyed making Christmas cookies with her grandchildren. Genny lived a life rooted in love, family, and devotion to the Lord. She believed deeply in the power of prayer, in times of trouble she would tell her children, grandchildren and great grandchildren to "put those little patties together and pray to Jesus." Known for her deep love of family, she was a source of endless support and wisdom for all her grandchildren, especially her great-grandson, Peyton Schmunk, who always brightened her day with his frequent visits and singing songs about Jesus.
Genny is survived by her sister, Roselyn Schultz and brother, Gary (Sandy) Schlender; 5 children, Larry (Irene) Buck, Todd Buck, Tammy Clark, Lori (John) Markham, and Kim (Lori) Buck; 8 grandchildren, Jennifer (Ed) Daniels, Melissa (Kevin) Manning, Andy (Leslie) Buck, Sarah Arndt, Josh Buck, Todd Jr. Buck, Danielle (Mike) Schmunk, Rachelle (Mark)Padilla, and Katie Probst; 12 great-grandchildren, Emily Daniels, Chelsea (Chris) Rose, Zane Manning, Zoe (Nick) Schlabach, Molly and Thomas Buck, Maddy Arndt, Olivia and Zach Fowler, Peyton Schmunk, Greyson and Beckham Padilla, 4 great-great-grandchildren; Zayden, Lyla Rose, Ellyana Buhrow and Hudson Schlabach. 2 daughters-in-law, Marlene and Karen Buck; and sister-in-law, Sharon Schlender.

The family would like to extend their deepest gratitude to Danielle Schmunk "Lodie", whose selfless devotion and loving care provided Nana with comfort and companionship in her final years.

"I love you with a bushel and a peck and a hug around the neck."
