Carl Bierfischer Obituary

Carl "Buck" Bierfischer CHARLOTTE, NC - Carl Bierfischer, 81, of Charlotte, NC joined our Heavenly Father and wife, Dorothy "Pinkie" Bierfischer on Friday, July 26, 2013. He is father to Donna Beckham, Chrisy Crisp and Tracy West; Grandfather to Kelsey Gritt, Leslie Beckham and Sidney West; Great-grandfather to Libby Gritt; Step-great-grandfather to Marley and Luke Bailey and Valery and Nadia Crisp. Sons-in-law are Bob Beckham, Chip Crisp, Gary West and Grandson-in-law, Brian Gritt; all of Charlotte, NC. Born November 2, 1932, Buck is a native of Charleston SC and planted his feet in Charlotte's soil many years ago. He retired from Charlotte Country Day School in 1993. He was a passionate sports fan, spending many years as a basketball referee. He loved to travel and spent the last years of his life traveling the world over. Buck was a loyal, devoted, caring and gentle man. Though we know God has one extraordinary angel in Heaven to watch over us, he will be so deeply missed by who loved him. The family will honor their beloved "Daddy" and "Papaw" at a private ceremony in Davidson, NC. To honor Buck's life and love of animals, the family requests that memorial gifts be made to the Humane Society of Charlotte, 2700 Toomey Avenue, Charlotte, NC 28203.

Dear Donna, Crissy, and Tracey, I am so sorry to hear of Carley's passing. My mother loved him so and told stories of how she helped take care of him when he was little. I do remember looking at his yearbooks when we were on Huger Street. He was amazing. Pinkie always loved her Buck. My prayers are with you and your families.

I was so sad this morning when I opened the newspaper and saw Uncle Carly had passed. I just spoke with him about 2 weeks ago and he talked up a storm. I have the fondest memories of him and Aunt Pinkie. He told me that he would have starved to death if his girls hadn't brought food that the only thing he could make was coffee. I am trying to find your phone number to call but wanted to express my condolences. I haven't told my mother yet as wanted to speak with one of ya'll first. Our thoughts and prayers are with you all.
