Leonard Buch

Leonard L. Buch (Len), 84, of Lebanon, PA crossed over on October 20, 2020. Len
is survived by Janice (Jan), his spouse and love of his life for over sixty-three years,
by his sons Kevin and Keith, and by his brother Leroy. Len also leaves behind a rich
legacy of friends and colleagues, as he was the type of person that led by example
and attracted like-minded folks to him.
Len spent almost his entire working life in service to our Nation. Len was a
decorated twenty-year veteran of the USAF Strategic Air Command (SAC) first in
the Sentry Dog program with his beloved four-foot partner, “Count” then in SAC
Command Post Control. The last eleven years of his service were with the Federal
Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) as a supervisor in a Mobile Emergency
Response unit, which included working the on-scene FEMA response to the
Oklahoma City bombing of 1995 and several major tornados. Along the way Len
earned a BS degree in Marketing from the University of Texas-Arlington. Len’s
well-earned retirement was spent with Jan on the golf courses of Hot Springs
Village, AR as the founding members of the now infamous “Buch Group”.
A graveside service for Len will be held at 1000 hrs Tuesday, October 27th at Mt.
Olivet Cemetery, Fort Worth, Texas. Len and Jan received great support from
Kindred Hospice and donations in Len’s name can be made to the Kindred Hospice
Foundation, 3350 Riverwood Parkway, Ste. 1400 Atlanta, GA 30339.
