Buchanan, Robert L. “Bob”; of Perrysburg, Ohio; formally of Waterford Township;  passed away Sunday, January 29, 2017 at the Lakes of Monclova, Legacy in Maumee, Ohio. Bob was born November 13, 1933 as Alford Arthur Chase to Loraine M. Chase in Detroit, MI. The following year he was adopted by Herbert H. and Helene I. Buchanan and he was at that time renamed Robert Lee Buchanan. Expounding on how grateful he was for the wonderful life his adoptive parents gave him was important to him. He believed that he had a great life, good parents and most wonderful grandparents anyone could ever imagine. Bob married Barbara A. Bain in 1951 and lived most their life in Waterford Township. They enjoyed 55 years of marriage and shared many experiences and adventures during their years together. He was very lost without her after her death in 2006. Their oldest daughter, Barbara “Ellen” Buchanan Long, passed away in 2009 and this was also a very painful loss for Bob. Bob is survived by his other three children, Micki Cutter of Fort Myers, FL, Jodi Buchanan of TX and Robert L. Buchanan II of Perrysburg, OH; 8 grandchildren; and 6 great-grandchildren. Funeral Service will be held Thursday, February 2, 2017 at 11:00 am at the Chapel of Perry Mount Park Cemetery. The family will receive friends on Wednesday from 6–8 pm at
