Carole F. Buckmoyer, 81, of Lebanon, died on Saturday, March 29, 2025, at WellSpan Good Samaritan Hospital. She was the loving wife of the late Allen Buckmoyer Jr.
Born in Lebanon, she was the daughter of the late David C. Sr. and Margaretta J. Brower Patches.
Carole attended church at Calvary Chapel, Lebanon. A homemaker, Carole’s family was her heart and soul, and she devoted her life to her kids, grandchildren, and great-grandchildren. In her free time, she enjoyed watching Days Of Our Lives, NASCAR, and game shows, playing the lottery, and always found a good challenge in a crossword puzzle. She was an avid Elvis Presly fan and would often listen to his music while tending to her home and always keeping things neat and tidy. Carole enjoyed rooting for the Dallas Cowboys and had a spicy personality, which will be missed by all who knew her. She found solace in the little things, such as a cold Pepsi.
Surviving are her sons, Scott A. Buckmoyer, Gregory L., husband of Michelle Buckmoyer, and Steven C. Buckmoyer, and his girlfriend, Samantha; grandchildren, Alyssa, Tazmin, Natasha, Stevie Jr., and David “D.A.”; and great-grandchildren, Emily, David, Zaliya, Zyra, Luna, Joziah, and a baby girl on the way. Also surviving are her siblings, Joann Rutter, Ruth Shade, Pinky Zornes, Renee DeJongh, Tammy Smith, Heidi Patches, David Patches Jr., Thomas Patches Sr., George Patches Sr., and Jeffrey Patches.
Preceding her in death are her son, Allen “Bucky” Buckmoyer; and siblings, James Sr., Leatte Leathers, Chrstine Dimmick, Faith Brought, and Kathy Ream.
A graveside service will be held on Friday, April 11, 2025, at 1 p.m., at Mount Lebanon Cemetery.
