A son of Floyd and Muriel Hubbard Hunt of Meriden, he was predeceased by his parents, his brother Harlan Fiske Hunt, and his wife, Sandra Doolittle Hunt. A lifelong resident of Meriden and Wallingford, Buell attended Meriden schools as well as the Art Center College of Design in Los Angeles, CA. After completing school, Buell worked for the International Paper Company, serving as the East Coast Art Production Manager, and later for the local fine arts reproduction company Meriden Gravure, as an account executive, and retired as general manager. In his retirement, Buell owned and managed Hunt's Courtyard Antiques in Wallingford with his wife, Sandy. Buell was a long-time member of the First Congregational Church of Wallingford, where he previously served as senior deacon. He was also a member of the Y's Men of Meriden.
