Betsy Buchanan Obituary
The passing of Betsy Buchanan of Auburn, New York leaves a void in the hearts of many, as we bid farewell to a loving soul who departed on July 7, 2025 at the age of 92. Leave a sympathy message to the family in the guestbook on this memorial page of Betsy Buchanan to show support.
As we bid Betsy farewell, let us not mourn the absence of her physical form, but rather celebrate the essence of her spirit that lingers in the spaces between moments. For Betsy is not truly gone, but merely transformed, her energy intertwined with the fabric of the universe itself, forever dancing among the stars.
She was predeceased by: her parents, Dr. Robert Fairchild and Jeannette Julien Fairchild; and her brother Robert E. Fairchild. She is survived by: her husband Douglas T. Buchanan; her children, Timothy (Kaley), Shawn, Colleen (Peter) and Laurie; and her sister Susan Haines. She is also survived by several nieces and nephews, three grandchildren and one great-granddaughter.
Visitation will be held on Monday, August 11th 2025 from 10:00 AM to 11:00 AM at the Saints Peter and John Episcopal Church (169 Genesee St, Auburn, NY 13021). A funeral Mass will be held on Monday, August 11th 2025 at 11:00 AM at the same location.
