Zebulon "Buck" Lackey went to his heavenly home Monday, February 6, 2023. He was born to Zebulon L. and Agnes Lackey in Old Fort, NC on August 16,1930 and was the ninth of twelve siblings, all who preceded him in death. He served in the United States Air Force and returned home to live a bountiful family life with his adoring wife of 67 years and shared his beautiful soul with all that knew him. He was the head and strength of the family, not only in words, but by example of a life of Grace that God had gifted him. "For we are his workmanship, created in Christ Jesus for good works, which God prepared beforehand, that we should walk in them."

After retiring twice from a long career in bookkeeping and accounting, Buck spent countless hours researching and recording our family history online. He was very proud of the good people that came before him. A man of few words, but every word was such a lesson on life and living. He will live on through all of his family who adored him, so much.

He was preceded in death by his son, Thomas A. Lackey. He is survived by his wife, Margaret D. Lackey of Asheville, NC; daughters, Gail Hooker and Jeanette Coulston of Asheville NC; a son, Douglas Lackey of Tampa Fl; seven grandchildren and six great grandchildren.

Due to illness in the family, there will be an intimate family celebration of life at a later date. He will be buried at Bethlehem Community Cemetery in Old Fort, NC on Sugar Hill Rd. and Silvers Welch Rd.
