Peter Eugene Cramer-Buffalohead

January 13, 1961 — April 12, 2026

Peter Eugene Cramer-Buffalohead, a devoted farmer and member of the Ponca community, passed away on April 12, 2026, in Lexington, Oklahoma. Born on January 13, 1961, in Oklahoma, Peter’s life was marked by his commitment to his family, his deep cultural roots, and his love for simple joys.

Adopted at a young age by the Cramer family, Peter carried his given name with pride while forging a path enriched by meaningful relationships and experiences. In the 1990s, he was reunited with his birth mother, Retha Hardman Buffalohead, an event that added a profound chapter to his personal history. Though his birth mother and his stepfather, Claude Hardman, have since passed, their memories remained a part of Peter’s story.

Known for his warm and generous spirit, Peter loved spending time at pow wows and found delight in visits to Six Flags. Among his happiest times were those spent shopping in Branson with his beloved daughter, Darla Cramer. His devotion to his family was a defining element of his personality.

He is survived by his only daughter Darla Cramer, his four grandchildren Devin Cramer, Joshua Brewer, Jeremy Brewer, one grand daughter, Cherish Brewer, his great-granddaughter Kyndyll Cramer, brother Charles, sisters Marla, Billie, and other siblings, his favorite niece, Jericho Fitz Campbell.

Peter is preceded in death by his birth mother Retha Hardman Buffalohead, stepfather Claude Hardman, sister Katherine (Cramer) Lackey and his former wife, Laura Curtis.

Peter Eugene Cramer-Buffalohead’s life will be honored with services held on April 22, 2026, at the Ponca Cultural Center in Ponca City, Oklahoma. A traditional feast and giveaway will begin at noon, followed by a funeral service at 2:00 p.m. Peter will be laid to rest with interment at the Ponca Tribal Cemetery.
