Conway, MA – Carol A. Buker, 74, passed away peacefully on October 22, 2026 with her family by her side.
Born in Troy, New York, on June 13, 1952, Carol was the daughter of the late Philip and Norma (Shippee) Buker. She grew up with a strong sense of community and dedication to her education, graduating from Greenfield High School in 1970. She went on to earn her bachelor’s degree in social work from Eastern Baptist College in Philadelphia PA in 1974.
Carol dedicated 44 years of her career to Sweeney Ford Lincoln Mercury (now Ford and Toyota of Greenfield) retiring in 2018. Known for her welcoming spirit and tireless work ethic, she was exceptionally popular with her customers and built lasting relationships throughout her decades of service.
Carol’s family was the center of her world, and she took great pride in her role as an aunt and partner. An avid animal lover, she had a deep affection for dogs-especially Labrador retrievers-and leaves behind her faithful companion, Skyler, who brought her immense joy.
She is survived by her loving partner, Susan Conley; her brother, David Buker; her nieces, Jennifer Wallner and Sara Johnson, and nephew, Eric Gray; as well as many beloved great-nieces and great-nephews. Carol was predeceased by her sister, Ruth Gray, and her nephew, Christopher Buker.
Her gentle spirit, kindness, and unwavering support for those she loved will be dearly missed and forever remembered by all who had the privilege of knowing her.
Per Carol’s wishes there are no services and the burial will be held at the convenience of the family.
