It is with great sadness that I share the passing of my father, John David Buhl, on Sunday, November 12, 2023. We will have local services in Vienna, VA on Tuesday, November 21. We will follow up with a Celebration of Life at the Farm in West Virginia in January (date TBD) where we will share the many stories of so many lives he has touched throughout the years. May he rest in peace and bask in God's heavenly glory.

On this day 50 years ago, July 6, 1973, John Buhl purchased the first 100 acres of the Stump Farm and Stump Cabin. The cabin was in a state of disrepair and plans had been made for the cabin to be moved to Romney, WV. Mr. Buhl spent the next decades restoring the home to its former glory. In 1998, the Stump Family Farm was then placed in the National Register of Historic Places for future generations to enjoy.
