Buck L Chin, age 67 of N. Haledon died Wednesday, Nov. 23, 2016. He and his wife lived in N. Haledon since 1999. Buck was in the taxi and limousine business before retiring two years ago. He had worked throughout the years driving for a few car services and began his career in the furniture business, driving large delivery trucks.

Buck was born in China and came to the United States when he was fourteen years old. His family settled in New York City, where he graduated from high school. He met his wife, Emily Eng, in the 1970’s. They were introduced by mutual friends, meeting for the first time on a blind date. They hit it off and were married on June 1, 1975. Buck and Emily settled in Nutley before moving to Ringwood in 1979. Throughout the years, they traveled extensively around the United States. Buck enjoyed sightseeing and he did plenty of it. They drove cross-country to California once, took the family to Mt. Rushmore, and visited Canada on a few occasions as well. Buck particularly enjoyed Toronto and Montreal, and he took a cruise to Nova Scotia just a few years ago. Going back to China was on his bucket list, but sadly he never had the opportunity.

Buck also enjoyed playing tennis, bowling, skiing, and maintaining his cars. Although he did have a Cutlass Supreme at one time and a Cadillac, he was a big fan of Japanese cars and their dependability, especially Hondas. He also had a group of loyal high school friends that he remained close with during his lifetime and they met regularly for dinners, usually somewhere in New York. He looked forward to those get-togethers and having a good time with his friends.

Buck is survived by his beloved wife of forty one years; Emily of N. Haledon, two sons; Christopher Chin and his wife Olivia of Wayne, Matthew Chin of Cliffside Park and one granddaughter; Alyssa Chin of Wayne. Buck was predeceased by both of his brothers.
