He was adamant that no religious services be held as he had "fallen out" with the Methodist Church when they "churched" his wife, Mollie, for dancing.

Buck served as Chief Deputy Sheriff of Natchitoches Parish for 31 years. In his later years, he also served in the position of Jailer. Someone who also worked at the Courthouse remarked that he always knew when Mr. Buck was coming because he could hear that big ring of keys jingling.
