He is preceded in death by his wife of 62 years Darlene (Fleischmann), his parents Anthony and Mathilda (Brandtner) Bueckers, his brother Gerald Bueckers, and his in-laws Robert and Margaret Fleischmann. In Bob's younger years, he went to Notre Dame High School and entered the U.S. Army immediately after high school and attained rank of SP4 Specialist 4 working on Nike missile maintenance. He married Darlene Fleischmann in 1959 and lived in Michigan for a short time and moved to Cudahy and started to raise their family. Bob was a dedicated employee of Delco Electronics for 35 years in Oak Creek and for a short time in Kokomo, Indiana in the mid-1970's. Bob and Darlene had so much joy raising their three children and adored their three beautiful grandchildren. Bob and Darlene enjoyed spending their winters in Clearwater, Florida for 25 years after his retirement. They moved to Muskego, WI in 1995 to live on Little Muskego Lake where they often entertained friends and family. Ever strong in his faith, he was an integral member in the parish of St. Leonard's Catholic Church in Muskego. Bob was active in the South Side meal program, ran the weed cutter on his lake, volunteered to help keep his lake clean, and was always generous with his time in so many ways. He spent countless hours fishing with Darlene, reading, working on word-finding puzzles, and cherished the time he spent with Darlene. Through the years, they enjoyed traveling together, playing bridge and dominoes with their friends, and loved their time spent with family. Please know that while Bob's last year of life was happy, spending time with his supportive family and friends, he died of a broken heart after losing his precious Darlene. Bob's generous nature endeared him to so many people and his smile was sincere and infectious. He will be dearly missed by his friends and family. Rest in Peace Bob.
