Paul Buck, Jr.

Obituary

Paul Richard Buck, Jr. of Greensboro, NC left us all gently on Sunday, June 11, 2023 at Beacon Place. A
celebration of his life is planned for September by his family.
He was born in Toronto, Canada and moved with his family to the Buffalo suburbs with his parents, Paul
Richard Buck, Sr. and Marguerite May Clark. After living and working in Rochester, NY after completing
his bachelor’s degree at the State University of New York at Fredonia, he and his wife, Jo Ann, and son,
Kenneth, relocated to Greensboro, NC where he continued to work as an advertising production
manager. Paul was dedicated to raising funds for the American Heart Association, as well as other
charities. His wit, artistic talent, building skills, kindness, empathy, and sense of humor will always be
with us. There was no act of love that he wouldn’t attempt for family, friends, or colleagues.
Survivors include his wife of 50 years, JoAnn; his son, Kenneth; daughter-in-law, Frazier; grandchildren,
Rafe, Deorwynne, and Ellis; and loving sisters-in laws and brothers-in-laws, AnnMarie and David Clark
and Denise and Richard Ryan, as well as nieces and nephews.
He was preceded in death by his parents, Paul Richard Buck and Marguerite May and sister, Nancy May
Guzdek.
A special thank you to all those caring staff members of AuthoraCare Hospice and Beacon Place who
helped his peaceful transition.
Donations in Paul’s memory may be directed to AuthoraCare Collective of Greensboro, NC.
