William T. Mayerchak, “Bo” “Uncle Buck”, age 81 of Oak Ridge and formerly of Clifton and Wayne, died peacefully on Thursday, September 26, 2013.

Bill was formerly co-owner of People's Auto and owner of Premier Gas Station and Truck Rental, both of Clifton. Throughout his years as a business proprietor, he actively served in the New Jersey Gasoline Retailers Association and eventually, after divesting himself of his businesses, he worked for that association selling insurance and memberships in the association to fellow gas dealers. He continued in that roll until retiring in 2004.

Bill served in the National Guard and in the United States Army Reserves from 1953 to 1958. He was also a long-time member of the Knights of Columbus in Clifton. In his spare time he also loved to play basketball, play his harmonica and attend mass at St. Thomas the Apostle R.C. Church in Oak Ridge.

Surviving is his beloved wife Barbara (nee Rosol); his son Robert and wife Karen Mayerchak of Demorest, GA, his daughter Dawn and husband Shawn Ginter of Port St. Lucie, FL; his two grandchildren: Thomas Swartzel and Sean Ginter; his two brothers: George and wife Gail Mayerchak of Long Prairie, MN, and Joseph and wife Dorothy Mayerchak of Lyndhurst; and his sister Monica Lanza of West Milford. He was predeceased by his first wife, Bette (nee Hansen) in 1977.
