Larry Buller (October 26, 1949 - April
14, 2021)
Larry Buller passed away on April 14,
2021. Larry was born to Peter and Della Buller in Newton Kansas. He
graduated high school in 1968 from Newton High School. Larry followed
in his father's footsteps and spent most of his career working for
the state of Kansas and the local county government in various
departments. He met the love of his life on the Fourth of July 1976
and married Shirley in June of 1977. Together with his wife, he
raised one son, Derek.
Larry was a kind and friendly spirit
and he would talk to anyone that he came across. He loved to bowl and
spent many evenings at the local bowling alley. Later in life, he
developed a passion for billiards, and would travel to Las Vegas to
participate in eight ball tournaments. Larry was also an avid bird
watcher, and would pass many hours sitting by the large picture
window of his home in Newton watching all the birds at his many
feeders. When his son moved to Houston, he would spend every annual
vacation visiting Texas and eventually moved to the Houston area. He
joined Council 8771 of the Knights of Columbus at Christ the Redeemer
Church, and enjoyed sharing a meal and fellowship with his brother
knights at the monthly council meetings when he was able to attend.
Larry was a loving husband, father,
brother, and friend to many, he will be dearly missed. Larry is
survived by his wife Shirley and son Derek.
