Wow, was very sad to hear the news about Paul. My memory isn't what it used to be, but I do remember Michael and Paul from living in North Medford and from school. May he rest in peace and my deepest condolences to the Buchanan family during this difficult time.

Paul was quite the craftsman. I still have a thread holder he made me for crocheting. He had a wonderful sense of humor and always had a good word to say. Will keep his family in my prayers.

My Sincerest Condolences to All the Buchanan Family. Although I left the neighborhood long ago and have not done well with keeping in touch, You All remain very near and dear to my heart. I know you boys will miss your big brother terribly, but just keep talking to him and soon you will see the little signs that let you know he hears. I'll share a memory with you... About 45 years ago Paul asked me to marry him when he grew up. He was quite insistent and sealed his commitment with a plastic blue & white heart shaped ring from his Cracker Jack box! I still have that ring today in my own little jewelry box and will continue to treasure it always. Rest in Peace Paul. I Love you All ... Chris <3
