Mr. Pauley was a sailor, sportsman, raconteur and jazz pianist.¹ He was born on 10 June 1944 in Los Angeles, Los Angeles, California, USA.¹ He was the son of Edwin Wendell Pauley and Barbara Jean McHenry.¹ He and an unknown person were divorced in October 1967 in Los Angeles County, California, USA.² He died on 18 February 2005 in Kenwood, Sonoma, California, USA, at age 60.^1,3 Robert Van Petten ("Buzz") Pauley died unexpectedly early Friday morning, February 18, 2005. He was 60 years old. He suffered fatal head injuries in a single vehicle auto crash near his home in the Santa Rosa area of northern California.
Buzz was born in Los Angeles, June 10, 1944. He lived there for most of his life until he relocated to Santa Rosa in 1982. He was the son on Edwin Wendell Pauley and Barbara McHenry Pauley, both now deceased. Edwin W. Pauley was the founder of Pauley Petroleum, Ambassador of Reparations after W.W.II, and a member of the University of California Board of Regents for 32 years.
After graduating from the University of California at Santa Barbara in 1967, Buzz pursued his dream of a political career. In 1968-69 he was a Coro Foundation fellow, and subsequently received his masters’ degree in political science from Occidental College in 1969. Although a lifelong Democrat, Buzz was appointed to serve under Republican Robert Finch as Assistant to the Secretary of the Department of Health, Education, and Welfare (HEW) in Washington, D.C. from 1969-70. After returning to Los Angeles in 1970 he twice ran for elective office; first, for a seat on the Los Angeles Community College Board of Trustees in 1971, and then for a seat in the California State Senate in 1974. He was also highly involved in Jimmy Carter’s 1976 Presidential campaign, and loved to tell people that Jimmy babysat his children for a short time while Carter was campaigning in Los Angeles.
After moving to Santa Rosa, his interests were focused primarily on business and community projects in that area. Like his father, Buzz displayed an uncanny ability to select business opportunities that prospered. He was able to merge that with his heritage of civic involvement and became well-known, well-respected, and well-loved by the greater Santa Rosa community. He correctly anticipated that the Pacific Rim, Japan in particular, would develop more interest in California’s wines, and so he founded Pauley Liquid Exports, a company which exported California wines to the Far East. He was also one of the founders of Sonoma National Bank, and served as a director from the bank’s opening in 1985. His devotion to the bank’s evolution into a regional powerhouse required weekly service, and he was justly proud of that evolution. At one point Buzz was the bank’s largest shareholder. He owned property and was highly involved in the proposed redevelopment of downtown Santa Rosa. He founded and contributed financially to The Heart of Santa Rosa, a non-profit organization devoted to the redevelopment and reuse of downtown, and believed that the city would be best served by adhering to a mixed-use model for redevelopment.
He was a philanthropist and was active in various causes. In the 1970’s he was the founding president of the California Children’s Lobby, an advocacy group for child seatbelt safety, and sat on the board of Pacific Oaks College and Children’s School in Pasadena. More recently in Santa Rosa he gave generously of his time and financial resources to Big Brothers, Sixth Street Playhouse, and the Sonoma Land Trust, as well as other worthy projects.
Buzz had a love of animals, jazz, and sports, in addition to his family. He enjoyed playing with his dogs and went so far as to hand-carry Koi fish from Japan to his pond in Santa Rosa. He could play piano by ear, copied the style of Bill Evans on occasion, and could muster a pretty decent imitation of Ray Charles when inspired. He was a loyal friend and loved to tell jokes, often self-deprecating. To celebrate his 50th birthday, Buzz and ten high school buddies rafted the Colorado River, and Buzz had everyone in stitches as he sang songs around the campfire. In high school, he was a halfback on the football team and a winning sprinter on the track team, and his love of football glued him to the TV Sundays and Monday nights. He was a big man, with a lot of heart who loved all his children and grandchildren very much.
Buzz is survived by his son and daughter-in-law, Matthew and Joanne Pauley; his daughter and son-in-law, Tasha and Andrew Pauley Baum; his stepdaughter, Courtney King; his two grandsons, Truman Doyle Pauley and Wilson Pauley Baum; his two ex-wives, Elsa Pauley Johnston and Kimberly King Pauley; his brother, Stephen McHenry Pauley; and his sister, Susan Pauley French.
There were be a memorial service for Buzz in Santa Rosa at 2 P.M., Saturday, February 26th, at the Paradise Ridge Winery, 4545 Thomas Lake Harris Drive.
In lieu of flowers, please send contributions to Big Brothers/Big Sisters of Sonoma County, 5685 Rohnert Park, CA 94928. on 21 February 2005.⁴
