Mr. Kenneth Lavon Hauser,

November 30, 1960 - March 13, 2021

Kenneth Lavon Hauser (Buck), son of the late Virginia Mae Hauser and Willard Hauser was born on November 30, 1960 in Winston-Salem, NC. On Saturday, March 14, 2021, God saw he was tired, touched his hand and called him home to rest. Buck graduated from North Forsyth High School and attended North Carolina A&T University. He then moved to Atlanta and worked for many years as a chef at Bahama Breeze restaurant. In 2008, he made Baltimore his permanent home. He worked at Johns Hopkins as a chef as well. At Hopkins, he was well loved and respected among his co-workers and his down to earth nature allowed him to connect with people from all walks of life. EVERYONE LOVED BUCK! He accepted Christ at an early age and often attended New Mt. Olive Baptist Church. His personal relationship with the Lord is what sustained him throughout his life. Despite what was going on in and around him, he knew he could always lean on the Lord. His favorite scripture was Psalms 23; The Lord is my shepherd I shall not want. Buck had a passion for working with kids and spent a lot of his downtime mentoring and coaching in various little league and football organizations. Buck LOVED to laugh, party and have a good time and mostly enjoyed spending time with his beloved family. Buck was preceded in death by his brothers Darral Thomas, John Thomas and his sisters Paula Raye Thomas and Joanne Thomas Roseboro. He leaves many cherished memories with: his sisters Sandra Tucker (Gilliam), Winifred Hauser, his brothers, Reginald Hauser (Natalie), Keith Thomas (Michelle), and Harold Thomas (Joyce). A special nephew Jake and a host of other beloved nieces, nephews, family and friends. For now, we will celebrate and let Buck rest; although we loved him, God loved him best.
