Wayland

Fredrick Buschling, 70, of Wayland, passed away at 5:43pm on Tuesday, April 20, 2021, at the Clark County Nursing Home.

Fred was born on October 12, 1950, in Keokuk, the son of George Fredrick and Rebecca May (Toops) Buschling.

He was a graduate of Clark County High School in 1969.  Fred married Kathy Laffoon on July 6, 1974, at the Wayland Methodist Church.

Fred enjoyed listening to old rock and roll music, collecting geodes, watching NASCAR, to which he favored Dale Earnhardt, and drawing. He had a variety of old cars and trucks, but his favorite was his 35 Chevy pickup. Fred was a member of the Southeast Iowa Antique Car Club out of Mt. Pleasant, Iowa. Fred was a handy man, you could find him in his barn working on handmade furniture, his antique automobiles, or in the past, silver jewelry. He and Kathy made many wonderful memories with their families, one that will be held dearly to all is the extended family trip to the World’s Fair in Knoxville, Tennessee. Fred was an avid Wayland Historian, sharing his knowledge with many, including his fellow residents at the nursing home. He will be greatly missed by his Shihpoo, Shophie.
