Donald “Buck” Edward Buchanan, age 67, passed away Friday, May 17, 2024. He was preceded in death by his parents, Edward Lewis Buchanan and Sandra Burnett Buchanan Lamb; sister, Debbie Buchanan Hanvy; and step brother, Johnny Lamb.

Buck was a proud United States Army Vietnam Veteran. He was a hunter, avid fisherman, and loved being outdoors. He also enjoyed fellowshipping with others, telling stories, and spreading laughter. His Baptist faith kept him strong and led him through several worldly tribulations. In addition, Buck would say let’s Make America Great Again!

Read MoreBuck was a dear friend of mine & my Vietnam Vet husband Ed Beckwith. Buck helped as pallbearer when Ed passed. He loved music & laughter, his sweet smile & twinkling eyes made you wonder what he's up to. Great mechanic & freind of Bill W. I'll miss that thick southern drawl. RIP Buck

My brother in law was a caring happy soul. He always had a story or tale of past experiences to share or laugh at. He enjoyed times we had as family and I will dearly miss those.
