Bay City Marine dies in Iraq
The Associated Press
BAY CITY, Mich. — A Marine from Bay City was shot and killed at a checkpoint in Iraq, his mother said.
Pfc. Bufford “Kenny” VanSlyke, 22, was slain Feb. 27 in Fallujah, said his mother Cindy L. Fisher, 44, of Bay City.
“Kenny did the checkpoints, and he had all his gear on, but [a shot] went right through his armor,” Fisher told The Bay City Times for a story March 1.
“He was my hero. He was so young, and his wife just had a baby, and he’ll never get to see him again,” she said.
Along with his mother, father and two stepparents, VanSlyke leaves behind a wife, Kortni, and the couple’s 4-month-old son, Kaiden, in Bay City.

Bufford K Van Slyke
BY Anonymous on Dec 28, 2009 | |  | Bufford and myself talked while serving in Iraq in 2007 about home and how we both used to go to the big house in Bay City and we also talked about how we were going to hang out when we got home. He will be greatly missed as a friend and a fellow marine, there is not one day where he dosen't cross my mind and the talks we used to have.
