Elizabeth Buehler

Elizabeth Ann Buehler, affectionately known as Liz, departed this life on June 8, 2026, at the age of 78 in Lubbock, TX. She was born on October 14, 1947, in Baltimore, MD to Frank and Mary (Mitchell) Schmidt. Liz was raised in the Baltimore area and graduated from Patterson High in 1965. In 1970, she was united in marriage to Larry Buehler at the Salem Lutheran Church in Baltimore, MD. They were blessed with 2 daughters and quickly found their forever home when they moved to Guymon from Iowa in 1982 where Larry managed the Safeway and Homeland stores.

Liz was a compassionate woman who found joy in the simple pleasures of life. She was humble and would often be found tending to her beloved garden, especially her gladiolas. Liz also had a soft spot for cats, providing a loving home for several throughout her life. Her supportive nature extended beyond her love for animals, and she was a pillar of strength for her family, whom she valued above all else.

Liz leaves behind a legacy of love and dedication. Her loving spirit and humble nature will be deeply missed by all who knew and loved her. She is survived by her devoted husband of 55 years, Larry Buehler of the home; 2 daughters, Deidre Buehler of Guymon, OK and Stacy (Buehler) Laverman and husband Josh of Montezuma, IA; and sister, Patricia Schmidt of Guymon, OK. Liz was preceded in death by her parents, Frank and Mary Schmidt, and sister, Frances Mairose.
