STUTTGART — Jeremiah “Jeremy” Todd Bueker

went to be with the Lord on Saturday, August 6th, 2022. Jeremy was born in Stuttgart on October 29th, 1973, to Chris Bueker and the late Danni Jo Newton Bueker.

Jeremy was born and raised in Stuttgart, where he was a Stuttgart Ricebird football player from junior high until he graduated in 1992. Following high school, he continued his education at UAPB, graduating with a bachelor’s degree in physical education. Jeremy continued his education at UALR William H. Bowen School of Law, graduating in January 2001. He was certified to the US Court of Appeals in 2005, top 100 litigation lawyers from the American Society of Legal Advocates in 2017, 2018 Lawyers of Distinction award for excellence in Bankruptcy Law, 2019 best attorney for the city of Stuttgart.

Jeremy met Sunny and took on the responsibility of her two children, Sydney (1) Libby (4) in 1997. Jeremy decided to go to law school and while being a fulltime student, he did yard work in order to provide for his family. Soon came Taylor and Rhett.

Jeremy has practiced bankruptcy law for 20 years, and in 2016 opened his own practice with his wife, Sunny, and paralegal, Tiffany Krissel. In 2012, he was elected the Northern District Judge of Arkansas County and has served from 2013 to the time of his death. Jeremy was a soft-spoken, diligent, fair judge and lawyer. He treated everyone as if they were his own family.

Outside of working and being a husband, father, son, and brother, Jeremy loved to hunt, fish, spend time at the sandbars of the Arkansas river, but most of all he loved being with his family watching the Arkansas RAZORBACKS. Jeremy was a believer of God and of the Lutheran faith.

The best word to describe Jeremy was “provider.” Jeremy not only provided for his family but the entire community. He was the buttermilk that kneaded the flour to come together. If Jeremy wasn’t at his established bankruptcy law firm or acting as judge for the Northern District of Arkansas County he was spending time at home with Sunny in their backyard along with Kirk, Jennifer, Bryan, Leslie, children, grandchildren, friends, and family.

Jeremy is survived by his wife of 24 years, Sunny Derden Bueker; three daughters, Libby Nash (Noah McCord Smith), Sydney Nash (Garrhett Wilbourn), Taylor Belcher (Tyner); and one son, Rhett Bueker; his father, Chris Bueker; brother, Kirk Bueker (Jennifer); mother-in-law, Sharon Hahn Derden; two grandchildren, Nash Drake Hill and Lilly Collins Hill; two nieces, Brittany Frank (Steven), Madi Bueker; and one nephew, Kade Bueker; two sisters-in law, Pollyanna Ford (Steven), Amber Pourmehdi; and a host of extended family.

Jeremy is preceded in death by his mother, Danni Jo Bueker; one brother, Benjamin Bueker; grandparents, Freddie Newton and Peggy Jo Newton, Frank William Bueker Jr. and Nina Bueker; and one aunt, Marci Newton Berry.

Funeral services have been entrusted to Roller-England Funeral Home of England, Ark. A memorial service will be held on Friday August 12th at 10 a.m. at the First Baptist Church, 2115 S. Prairie St. in Stuttgart, Ark. 72160. The family asked that donations be made to the memorial of your choice.
