Wish I had gotten to know you better Uncle Lloyd and you could have met my husband, your great-neices and nephews. Even though we didn't know each other well, you are in my thoughts. Rest in peace.

On behalf of the Massachusetts Chess Association (MACA), I extend condolences to the Buckley family on the passing of Lloyd. Lloyd was a life member of both MACA and the U.S. Chess Federation. He was one of most active members of the Worcester Chess Club during the 1970s and '80s. May he rest in peace.
