Ridler White Page, 83, known as "Buzz," a nickname given by his brother John at an early age, died peacefully at home on March 5, 2022, surrounded by loving family.

Buzz's children have fond memories of annual wood stacking events (attendance was mandatory!) and of skating on the neighborhood rink he created by flooding the backyard at night, in sub-zero temperatures. Many rides were had in his meticulously restored antique cars (don't scratch the paint!), as well as lessons on fishing, geography, world history, and antiques.

Born on April 6, 1938, in Suffern, New York, to Norman Frederic Page and Charlotte Kathryn Tunney, he attended Eaglebrook School – '53, Vermont Academy – '56, Dartmouth College – '60, and University of Michigan Law School – '63.

Buzz was married to Sally Orcutt of Hanover, NH, in June of 1960. They had three children: Kathy, Billy, and Betsy.

On June 17, 1978, Buzz married Helen Towne of Bradford, VT, and welcomed her three daughters, Dina, Maria, and Krista, into his life.

After law school, Buzz founded Baker and Page Attorneys at Law in Lebanon, NH, with his friend Bill Baker. Buzz's interest in owning and restoring antique cars led him to retire from the law and join his father Norman in the family business, Page's Model A Garage in Haverhill, NH.

A lifelong, avid reader, Buzz had a deep interest in geography and world history that inspired him to travel the globe with Helen, and later led him to establish what would become his favorite business venture, Ridler Page Rare Maps in Charleston, SC, where Buzz and Helen loved living for over 25 years.

In retirement, Buzz and Helen lived in East Boothbay, Maine, Punta Gorda, Florida, and finally—due to Buzz's declining health—Hampstead, New Hampshire, where they were closer to family. Over the years and until his death, Helen lovingly cared for Buzz when he was unable to care for himself.

Buzz is survived by his loving wife of 44 years, Helen T. Page of Hampstead, NH; son Bill Page of South Berwick, Maine; daughters Kathryn Page of Hanover, NH, Betsy Page Brown of Thetford Center, VT, Dina Davidson of Auburn, NH, Maria Trombley Puffer of Barre, VT, Krista Trombley of St. Simons Island, GA; and many grandchildren and great grandchildren. He was predeceased by his brother, John F. Page.

A celebration service led by Pastor Daniel Baker will be held Thursday, May 26, at 1 o'clock at the Haverhill Congregational Church. Following the service, Buzz will be laid to rest in East Haverhill Cemetery in Pike, NH. All are welcome to attend the burial if they wish and gather afterwards for a reception in the Parish House at the church.
