In Loving Memory of Harold "Buck" Gaines

May 3, 1947 - March 2, 2010

"And can it be that in a world so full and busy, the loss of one weak creature makes a void in any heart, so wide and deep that nothing but the width and depth of eternity can fill it up!"
Author: Charles Dickens

 We can use Buck Gaines as an example of life that we all cherish.  He was a terrific family man and he showed that with the affection he showed to Alyce, Amy, Rodney, and Abby. He loved his grandchildren to no end and was extremely proud. Buck took his love for life outside his home as he was constantly helping others and especially helping young umpires to strive to do their best. He was such an asset to Tar Heel Leagues, Inc. not only as an umpire but also serving as a Director of District 3. He kept everything in order and surely helped our Board of Directors enjoy the game of golf more and more.

There was always laughter when he was around and you could usually hear him before you saw him as he was joking or seeking improvement.  Alyce, Rodney, Amy, and Abby we share in your loss and want to thank you for sharing him with us all of these years. Tar Heel Leagues, Inc. is a better organization because he was a part of it.

May God bless all of our memories.

This album consists of just a few of the pictures that Brenda and I took over the years. Harold you will be, and are very much missed.
