DAPHNE, Ala. — Under a gray October sky, family and friends of Army Spc. Paul J. Bueche gathered Monday at the church where he worshipped and attended school to lay him to rest.

Bueche, 19, was killed Oct. 21 in Balad, Iraq, when a helicopter tire he was working on exploded. Maj. Gen. Mark Bowen, adjutant general of the Alabama National Guard, posthumously awarded Bueche the Bronze Star medal at the funeral.

“He lived more in 19 years than many of us live in a lifetime,” the Rev. Timothy Deasy said at the funeral, the Mobile Register reported. “Paul gave his life for all of us.”
