    Nancy & all of the Buchanan Family.

    We are all sad to hear of the passing of Daryl, ” Bucky . ”
    He was a great person, good friend & honest guy. I was happy to be able to come to see him at the beginning of Aug. 2020. We had & we shared good laughs about the old times when we were together in the Military as Linemen. We were able to remember lots of crazy moments. Daryl fought a courageous battle & may he now rest in peace.

    Rosina will always remember Daryl’s big, beautiful smile.

    Peter, Joanne and Rosina Di Saverio
