David Stephen “Bucky” Burdyshaw departed peacefully on September 2, 2026 at around 2:00pm in his bed at Cardinal Woods in Madison, OH in the company of his brother Rick. Born to Harry and Nellie Burdyshaw on April 24, 1952, David is survived by his two brothers, Richard and William Burdyshaw. He was preceded in death by his sisters Mary Beth Dnunzio in 2010 and Deborah Burdyshaw in 2013.

As an avid outdoorsman and fisherman, Dave loved to spend time hunting and fishing with his best friends: brothers Rick and Will and cousins Dean and Rick. Dave was always an outgoing, humorous and friendly person who maintained a childlike sense of wonder and open heart throughout his life. He was adored by his nieces and nephews and always went out of his way to help whoever and however he could. Dave was well-known for his love of Triumph motorcycles and working with small engines, especially chainsaws. He could always be found near a pile of firewood or tending to a bonfire. Whatever the task, Dave was sure to find a way to rustle up a laugh.

Dave’s family would like to extend their thanks to his best friend and neighbor Vicky, who was a true friend and a blessing to him for many years. At his request, a formal funeral will not be held. The family will be arranging a celebration of life in his honor. Online obituary and condolences may be found at www.behmfuneral.com

  4. We will miss you so much, thank you for being the best neighbor anyone could ever ask for. When I was little, you were always playing ball with me, showed me how to crack walnuts, always helped me with anything we needed, I couldn’t be more grateful for you. One of my favorite memories would be when i was really little I was exploring your kitchen, & saw a pepper & started playing with it, then rubbed my eyes, & it turned out to be a jalopeno lol, or the time i was really little & was learning how to vacuum so i was vacuuming your house & saw a “fur ball” in your hallway that moved, & i started screaming & running, turned out to be a mouse. Anyways, i’m glad i got to know you & spend time with you over the many years you were my neighbor. My family and I love & miss you.

  6. On behalf of the Kidd family, we send our condolences to the Burdyshaw family. It was a great blessing for Walter, Roberta, Anne, and Danny to have your family as longtime neighbors on Collins Road in Mentor, Ohio. As a sidenote, your family home on Collins Road is owned by one of our close friends. We’re able to visit both your parents home and my grandparents home. It is really great to be able to keep those memories around! Our most sincere condolences to you and your family. – Grey and David Kidd.
    P.S.- The scariest thing I ever saw was David driving Harry’s pick up truck up onto the car ramp they built in the backyard. OSHA would not have approved.
